Can you drink this beer anywhere or is it only a backyard brew.

2) Been at a couple bucks games and those have been pretty busy, concourse is busy but manageable. It will definitely be a planning game to know when to leave seats for bathroom/beer runs.
9) Yep, elevators are the only other options besides the escalators, if Im not mistaken

I took the stairs. Not waiting around for that elevator.

I think Hoopaloop Hefeweizen and What's A Chicos White Cream Ale are really the same beer.

I believe it’s a Crean Ale.

Same beer, but different bottles.  Or different beers in the same bottle.  Either metaphor works.

Very much looking forward to going to the Jan. 20 Providence game with a total of 13 family and friends from NC, Seattle, Chicago, Detroit and Milwaukee.

But there is a 0.00% chance that I will pay $11 or $12 for a pint of mediocre (or worse) beer. I will be happy to wait a couple hours to quaff a malt beverage at an establishment outside the arena. It's not a matter of "afford," it's a matter of principle. Many arenas/teams actually are lowering the price of beer. $12 for a Leinie? Really? Hard pass!

I have been to many arenas and prices are high everywhere. Don't disagree with your frustration, but that's the way it is. As long as people pay they will raise until people stop paying. Based on the lines at events I go to don't I would not expect prices to come down. Pre gaming may be your best option!

I didn't express any frustration at all in my comment, and I still have none. I simply won't buy the beer. Hell, I'll be searchin' out the bubblers so I don't even have to buy a $5 water.

***Check your bank statements!***

I was double charged for two food items on Tuesday. Saw it in my account and contacted my bank. They put me in touch with this number at the Fiserv Forum: (414) 227-0504 and I spoke to someone in the food service office. They assured me they would get the charges corrected, but from talking to some staff that night, it sounds like this is a common occurrence.

This is good information to have.  After reading this, I now recall I had to swipe my card twice at each stand I stopped at because the systems were 'slow'...

I don't carry around a lot of cash.  But I just don't trust the process (TM) at places like Miller Park, etc. so I always stop by the ATM before heading to games.

Doesn't matter.... the bottle's been out in the sunlight way too long.

Random thoughts:

1) I really enjoy the additional stats on the scoreboard. Also enjoy the team stats on the corner boards.
2) The lower bowl concourse was nearly impassable at halftime and it’s a pretty thin crowd tonight. It’s going to be bad when there is a full house.
3) Please turn off the mic near the student section. The girl who is yelling “ooooon you” after a foul sounds like nails on a chalkboard. Also at some point the wrong word is going to be yelled.
4) The tops of the student section are tarped off for smaller crowds I assume. Smart play. Looks less empty.
5) The tunnel from the parking garage to the arena is fantastic.
6) I liked the DJ pregame. Not a big fan of the occasional music during the game. Maybe that was just a mistake. Also he needs a better name than DJ Snack Pack.
7) Intros were nice but disappointing they can’t turn off all the lights with the open concourses.
8) I didn’t think I would like the in game hosts during timeouts but they were pretty good.
9) Am I right in that there is only one escalator between the upper and lower level?  No other options other than elevators?  Dislike if so.
10) Excellent food and drink options everywhere.
11) Pretty cool they have a little handicapped seating platform behind the MU bench. Usually these spots are up high.
12) I enjoy the radio feed being played on the concourse.
13) New banners are sharp.
14) Overall, big fan of the place. I look forward to many games here.

I thought they improved a lot of my issues for the UMBC game!  Some may have just been because it was a preseason game.

1) Main scoreboard looked awesome with the team logos, however, those corner boards are still ugly and need more stats.
3) Still have to turn off that crowd/band mic.  Definitely heard a "Matt Heldt sucks chant going through the PA"
6) DJ is still botching the player intros.  He at least had WTSHNN queued up after the opening video but it was the slow beginning and not the muscle of the song.
7) Curtains for the player intros made it dark.  Much better!
9) The stairwells were an excellent option.  Shout out to those who suggested them.

That was me on the stairways. It's so easy!!

Marquette still can't get the starting lineup music correct. Very disappointing.

6B) Team comes out for their last warmup pre tip, the DJ plays over Ring Out Ahoya. Game ends and the DJ plays right over Ring Out Ahoya.

Is he not communicating with the game ops staff? It's really bad.
