h2_testYup! 16 December 2009 - I'll be at the Stars vs. 'Canes game! (GO STARS!) It's a Christmas pressie from my mom - bought the tix today. We'll be BEHIND THE BENCHES AT CENTER ICE! woot!
While we *could* have gotten seats right behind the glass, those cost just a smidge out of the price range and these will be just as good, if not better, b/c - dude - CENTER ICE! On the red line. And the seats right behind the glass - those were sort of off to one side, I think (and twice as much).
So far, these are the best seats we've gotten for a hockey game. I had seats once 3 rows back from the glass and they were great (at the MCI Center in DC) and Gretzky was playing then and the Rangers lost, but they were kinda in the corner. Not awful seats (damn good ones really for the price), but not the best. It was hard to see stuff down at the other end of the ice - so when the Rangers were playing defense it was kind of 'argh'. But hockey guys from 3 rows back? Oh yeah - that's cool!
These will be the best seats I've had for a Stars game though! So woot! First Stars game, we were like 20 rows back (MCI Center), then the next one - about 10 or so (RBC Center). These will be, technically, 2 rows back, but right behind the bench, which takes up about 3 rows of seats that would be there w/o the bench. But, I think I can handle 5 rows back, behind the bench. =)
31.5 days and counting!
