powersurge Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 looks interestinghttp://www.sonicsare...rena-renderingsThat looks like an utterly fantastic seating configuration for basketball (much like the Pacers' court), but it seems like it wouldn't quite work for the hockey seating they mentioned in previous articles. Its as if there would be way too many seats situated too far from the ice, especially in the corners...or am I missing something??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TruColor Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 the official uni doc doesn't show the Knicks St. Pat's unis for this season, so maybe they haven't made one with the new design template?I can confirm this as well - I have individual uniform sheets from the league that only designate six different "Cultural" unis for 2012-2013:Heat (White Hot), Trail Blazers (Rip City), Bulls (St. Patrick's Day), Celtics (St. Patrick's Day), Hornets (Mardi Gras), and Raptors (Canadian Armed Forces).No Knicks.

DC in Da House w/o a Doubt Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 This would be pretty sweet. All 3 in a row like that and they all look really cool. The architecture goes very well together, as Art Vandelay would say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arcane Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 I can Adidas doing this with its techfit and Rev 30 tech. I give it a 2016 deadline that they will try and introduce the body sleeve aka the PJ's uni with the PR blurb of getting fans closer to on court and bedtime action. @https://twitter.com/ArcaneNLSC @https://twitter.com/ArcaneApparel https://www.facebook.com/ArcaneTeamApparel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a fan. I'm a bit surprised that they didn't load the place up with a ton of luxury boxes like some of the other new venues. It seems like all of the new arenas that have opened in recent years are chock full of boxes. Its as if they are missing another 40 boxes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would suck to be stuck in the second row up there... Â Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would suck to be stuck in the second row up there...I'm not too sure about that. I believe that the whole idea of luxury suites is to provide a number of amenities to the client along with a certain amount of privacy that court side seats or boxes couldn't provide. I have actually seen a basketball game from a luxury suite in Miami after being moved there by a friend who was an arena employee when a box was vacant, and I can say that the view was terrible but the amenities were awesome. Therefore, I can see the allure of the boxes but in the end could never allow myself to ever buy one if and when I ever had the cash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zpqmaowl Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Scored $27 tickets for an empty suite last year for the Kings on a Monday night, and it was worse than the upper level. There were no amenities in it, and the only food is on the first level of suites (we were on the third). The view was really no better than the 300 level, so I guess the amenities make it or break it. And I guess the opportunity to be social helps because you're not sitting ten in a row, but if that's your only reason for going to a game, … the worst helmets design to me is the Jacksonville jaguars hamlets from 1995 to 2012 because you can't see the logo vary wall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I guess the opportunity to be social helps because you're not sitting ten in a row, but if that's your only reason for going to a game, …Dude, that f-ing sucks. We had all sorts of amenities; wings, chicken fingers, appetizers, etc. There was a custom suite with lounge chairs, HDTV's, and high end kitchen and bathroom. We also had access to a private club and bar where we had some complementary drinks; It was incredible. That being said, it actually took away from the game experience. If I'm a true sports fan then all I want to do is be close to the action and see the game. I can see why they offer up all of these other things...I guess its because people aren't really fans and they want to just be part of the "event" and they crave all of this other crap.
