Having recently moved to Phoenix from out of state, I figured it was worth visiting the arena to watch the ASU women's gymnstics team host the top ranked UCLA Bruins today. Was able to easily find free parking near the arena. My biggest criticism up front is that the parking spaces in their on-campus parking lot by the arena are entirely too narrow, to the point that you cannot open your door without fear of hitting the vehicle right by yours, What was frustrating the most was seeing potentially a handful of parking spots in each row wasted because of the fabulous drivers who could not park within the lines.
If you are comparing this arena to other university arenas, this one is definitely on the outdated side. The perk of attending this meet was the fact that the tickets were general admission and I could walk into the meet 5 minutes before the start and easily find 2nd row seats in the corner. The venue is intimate enough where I could easily see the gymnasts warming up and competing. The seats are the old school metal folding seats which you'd expect to find at an old baseball stadium. We had no experience buying concessions or using the restrooms but I'd venture to guess it'd be on the so-so side as well.
Overall, I'm glad we went- for a total of less than $25 (utilizing military discount), our family was able to watch a gymnastics meet that had Olympic gymnasts competing (granted, they were competing for the Bruins). This was money well spent to attend this meet instead of the post-Olympic gymnastics tour that basically was one big dance/watered down gymnastics show that was put on last year post-Rio (where tickets ranged in price from $40-300/each)
