| - I love visiting different ballparks and arenas across the US. They each have a little flavor of the city wrapped into it, and I'm always judging them based on ease of entry, exit, and flow of the event. I was lucky enough to come to T-Mobile for a Vegas Golden Knights playoff game!!
I think the space outside the arena is magical. A little oasis in the middle of Las Vegas where you can congregate with fellow fans, grab a drink, and watch the drum line. It's special in comparison to other cities, because you are not fighting Street traffic while you are walking around outside the arena. It is 100% pedestrian friendly. There are a ton of nearby bars and restaurants to feel your appetite pre-and post-games, and of course because it's Vegas everything is open nice and late.
Getting inside was a breeze, there were tons of staff to check bags and get tickets. There were lots of friendly staff inside to help find your seat.
There aren't any bad seats in the whole arena. I mean I was in the absolute last row at the top and I could see the whole game like I was on the first level. I also got a chance to go to Hyde Lounge where some friends had bottle service. It was super fun atmosphere and very comfortable, but your view of the game is partially blocked. It would be the perfect place to be seated if you wanted to attend a sporting event, but didn't really care about watching the game.
Leaving when the game was over was an absolute breeze. No long lines, no standing around trying to shove 18,000 people down one flight of stairs. It was very easy, and the best part is, you can take your drink with you!! You don't have to worry about finishing it in a hurry and tossing it before you go outside.
I can't wait for next season. Go knights go!!
