Going to be in rosemont on Tuesday.  Have seats 1 & 2, row B in section 102.  What bench am i going to be closest to?  I thought that put me little past the basket on the west side not in at mid court.  right?

I don't know how detailed it is, but ticketmaster provides a layout of the stadiums it sells tickets to.  I beleive section 102 is near mid-court.

Don't they have city water there? Didn't realize the Allstate was on a well. Maybe they sell bottled water at concessions.

I'm in 112, which is supposedly behind the MU bench.  Hope that helps.

Anyone else remember when the roof collapsed?

This is the only picture I could find--you can see the runway at O'Hare at the top:

Haha, classic.

I'm looking forward to going there Tuesday night...not looking forward to the huge cluster f*$% afterwards trying to leave the parking lot. I believe it took about 45 mins last time I went there to get out on the road after the game. For being an empty building for games, it sure as hell is difficult to get out of.

The place is absolutely a piece of crap.   Possibly the worst venue on the face of the planet.  If John Lennon and George Harrison came back from the dead and held a Beatles reunion concert there and I got paid to go, I'd decline the offer.

Try going when the building fills.  I was there for the UFC show in October.  We waited til the last post match interview was over, then took a couple more pictures, then took a bathroom break, then had to walk back around to the other side of building to get to the side where we parked, then walked halfway out to the gate to get to our car, and it STILL took 20 minutes to get out of the lot.  

Not to mention that you don't dare get out of what vague lines are forming, since there are people gunning over 40 in their H2's to skip past the vague lines.
