UPDATE: HEY! We actually don't upload on this channel anymore, but I would love it if you could come check out the new channel and hit the subscribe button! ua-cam.com/users/post2postproductions
ORIGINAL PINNED MESSAGE: Obviously we would have liked to visit these arenas in person, but we do not have the tens of thousands of dollars it would take to tour North America and do this properly. ***This video was wildly requested by our subscribers*** and we did the best we could with what we had. It's just a fun video, don't take it too seriously. If you do, and it angers you, then you clearly have some personal issues. Additionally, when this video was made this channel was incredibly small(less than 5k subs), and we never thought that it would get this many views. We were just doing it for fun.
Also, yes we know it's the Shark head at the top. When you're filming a video there are a thousand things running through your head thinking about what you're going to say and keep the conversation flowing, so yes we had a bit of a mental lapse during the SAP portion of this video. Please forgive us, we are not perfect.
Post2Post I
Well, I'm happy to say that there really isnt a bad seat in the house. You could be in the standing room area straight behind the home goal net, all the way on top, and the screen is large enough to be easily readable, and you can see all they way to the back boards across the whole place. Its small, without being too small, and its a super fun place to be.
Come on over and give this video another go!
You should do a college hockey version of this.
MSG changed their jumbotron at least 3/4 years ago. That was an old picture you showed.
Post2Post I have been to the Little Caesars arena and it is huge and very nice. All of the seats are nice as well

I'm third les go
its FiReLiNe I’m first let’s go
its FiReLiNe stupid flamer
Thx
Thank you so much for that list you just saved me 32 minutes of my life
The Hartford Whalers are gonna sweep the Atlanta Thrashers in the Stanley Cup
Not if the NorthStars have something to do with it!
What about the NORDIQUES
but what if the Saskatoon Blues win first?
Not if the Seattle Mets sweep them
Marc Luu Listen bud the Kansas City Scouts are going to sweep the series no doubt about it
the Xcel Energy Centre is absolutely incredible. Amazing place to watch hockey - coming from a Jets fan
Kyle Goldstine RESPECT 😂😭🙏🏻
been to games all around the country and xcel is one of the best. this guy has no idea what hes talking about.
Kyle Goldstine Whenever the Vikings are at home on the weekends and the Jets are in town, I always run into tons of you guys at Xcel when I’m taking a leak. Nice to see Winnipegers supporting the local Vikes.
Yeah, there is no bad seat at the Xcel Energy center. The overall experience is top notch.
He also didnt get a picture or even mention the lighthouse. To me, that's pretty unique and I'd think give the X a bit more credit
When u do rank vids u should keep rank number in top corner
More so an opinion video which is what this is.. to say these 2 clowns warrant which arena is best for everyone is just absurd.
DjD they are so Canadian it hurts lol
@@ddesimone9912 exactly...I've been to a lot of these are arenas thanks to my job and I cant believe the difference of opinions. Air Canada center isn't even close the Canadian Tire Center yet they're ranked so far apart hahaha. These gents have no clue and I'm sure they're nice folks but dont rank the rinks when you havent been there lmfao. These rankings are embarassing.
DjD besides you using the term “clowns” to describe them, I agree
You think this is clownery, wait until you hear sound engineers takes when it comes to shows.
The best part of Xcel Energy Center for me is the northern woods feel with dark wood everywhere AND the jersey of every Minnesota high school hockey team proudly displayed on the walls.
Brent looks less than Don Cherry's cousin and more like Barry Trotz's cousin.
Cousin? He looks like Barry Trotz’s brother
There's not one bad seat in Rogers Arena, fantastic place to watch a game
Idk If you are talking about the oilers or not cause there is a Rogers Arena but if you are talking about the oilers it's rogers Place so... which one???
+CrinStone YT Rogers arena home of the Canucks roger place home of the oilers
CrinStone YT Rogers Arena - Vancouver Canucks
Rogers Place - Edmonton Oilers
Same with ppg paints arena
Filthy Slaw completely agree, amazing experience at the rogers place except maybe finding a parking spot haha
6:04 "There's a funny looking object..."
It's a shark head. Used to be a Hollywood prop. The Sharks players enter the ice through this prop.
@@mvnts27 No, they use it all the time.
@MaddVentures Are you a blues fan
People never give SAP center enough credit for how good the view is from literally any seat
idiot cow yeah, they have great seats from many angles and if you get them fast enough there for a pretty good price
I honestly thought they were joking. No idea how they don’t know it was the shark head.
A side note on the banners in Nationwide Arena(CBJ): they actually remove all the teams that are not in the playoffs when it starts, and reorder them based on matchups, and do this every round.
That's cool!!!
Teams are stuck with those banners until they win a Stanley cup basically the penguins used to have them and got rid of them in 91 after the first cup good luck Columbus
@@jacobeldredge1997 those should be permanantly kept as a tradition for all nhl teams as the banners rep the whole league and more decor to go with the banners won
"The future is bright for Carolina..." Wow guys, that did in fact age very well as a prediction. Nice job.
:) Thanks Chuck
Go canes
The Xcel energy center is actually one of the best layouts for viewing from all seats, both low and high. Very nice rink, I would actually put it in the top 3 rinks of the 20+ I've been in.
Vegas is hands down the nicest arena I've ever been. Such a great atmosphere for hockey
as someone who has sat in the very top row of the nosebleeds at Xcel, I had zero trouble seeing the ice, in fact, I think its one of the better seat in the house as you can really get a full view of play that people closer to the ice can't get.
You just can't dislike your dad. He just seems awesome.
Dad is the man!
First reply in 3 years
Not trying to be bias as. Blue Jackets fan but Nationwide Arena doesn’t have a single bad seat. I’ve sat from upper deck and highest row to first row ice level and it’s always amazing atmosphere and clean inside and out. The real cannon also give it a unique feel when we score or to start each period. A lot of away fans always want pictures with the cannon and are always admiring the arena. Also on a side note, I worked for the arena back in the day, a lot of women from the away teams are happy due to the fact when they built NWA they built TWICE as many ladies restrooms. To me it’s always been top notch. I agree Calgary though..... 🤦🏼♂️ amazing hockey history but the dome is odd for sure. Go Jackets!
It's an excellent arena.
Same with SAP Center
Miles Swint I’m a pens fan and our arena doesn’t have a bad seat either but I’ve always wanted to take the trip to nationwide arena to see the pens play the jackets on the road
GO JACKETS!!
I agree. I am a life long red wings fan, but I try to go to a playoff game every year, and in May two buddies and I chose to go to Columbus. I WAS VERY IMPRESSED. It is one of the nicest stadiums in the league and does not get the recognition it deserves.
So glad you post almost daily. I love coming home from school and watching your videos. And you're already at 7k! Please never stop posting and I'm glad to say I've been here since 1.1k. :)
Revilo 366 same!
Yeah it's crazy how much they've grown!
You have to review the new Adidas jerseys.
We will
Yes please!!!!
Post2Post to me
I really hope that adidas won't put ads on the jerseys in the future
Vegas looks pretty cool too me. Carolina's improved big time. The stripe for the Wild jerseys look cool. My team's Sharks jerseys have a cool new shoulder patch...
BUT WTF HAPPENED TO NASHVILLE???? THEY DESIGNED THE JERSEY. ADIDAS MADE IT. WHAT WERE THEY THINKING????
24:14 los santos ? have u played gta5 recently
Los Angeles smh🤦
Actually in the xcell energy center the best sight lines are in the top seats that you claim are the worst. And the lower bowl is smaller then it looks and you can see the ice perfectly from almost the concessions stands because it is wide open. And t was voted the best designed for sight lines in the country. Just thought you should let people know what is right
+Trevor Daly thanks Trevor, but Brent wasn't claiming anything, he was just basing his impression off of the picture. Some day we hope to visit it in person!
When you visit in person I think you'll just delete this video. Xcel Energy Center should be top 3 in any poll. If you do go to Minnesota, try to see a college or high school game at Amsoil Arena in Duluth. Best college venue hands down. stadiumjourney.com is helpful
It looks nice and compact too, like it can Xcel the crowd's Energy
The TV Experience sucks, trust me. But if you go there in real life, you might abandon your favorite team :).
I really I hope I get to some day!
Yeh there's so much history there. I've been to a few games(i'm a big Rangers fan) there and it was amazing. Unfortunately I went when they played Pittsburgh and got crushed , but it was still fun to take part in the Crosby sucks chant(obviously he doesn't suck but it was still fun) and take in the scenery of the Garden. Like they say it's the world's most famous arena.
Post2Post Can you put best goalie pls
TopThrillAnthony The Garden has to be one of my favorite, the ceiling alone makes it look so amazing to me.
The arena is so nice I love going there. I live on LI but screw the islanders.
On the top of the sap center the thing on the top left is the shark head the sharks players skate out of during warmups
Rocco Lopez these just make up bs as they go, don’t waste your time
MaddVentures shut up your teams out
It is the Sharks Head and the fact that these two don't know what it is tells me they shouldn't be ranking arena's. Also how is it you rank arena's when you have never even been to them...SMH!
Rocco Lopez I just committed that then saw your comment😂😂😂
You dingalings it’s a joke
btw, the 'big object' in the left corner of the picture of SAP center is the massive shark head that gets lowered every game and players skate out of!
For what Brent said about vegas' arena with the seats hanging over the ice, one guy that I reffed with said that when he was at a North Stars game in the 80's, some guy almost fell over the 2nd level balcony going right onto the ice. That made some of the standards for rinks be changed so the balconies wouldn't hang over the ice, they could get close, but couldn't go on top of or over
The upper levels at T-Mobile are not that close, but the way the place is laid out, the upper bowl is a better place to watch a game, you feel like you are on the ice, great arena.
No, the Oilers arena doesn't always look like that, the seats are usually black, okay okay okay.
But it's still probably the nicest inside (and out.)
The united center's seats are steep. When the Hawks score a goal and everyone is jumping around, I can see the ice fine and I'm a tiny guy.
Antwone Jackson We are not bandwagons... well most people aren't. PEOPLE DIDN'T COME BECAUSE OUR HORRIBLE FORMER OWNER HAD EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE TICKETS, AND TRADED AWAY SUPERSTARS LIKE ED BELFOUR AND JEREMY ROENICK BECAUSE THEY WANTED "TO MUCH MONEY". THAT IS WHY WE SUCKED. WHEN HE DIED, HIS SON BECAME OWNER AND CHANGED EVERYTHING. SHUT UP.
@@sportsgames2713 Ignore him. Anyone who would put hookers and cocaine in their name probably doesn't know what they're talking about.
Link&Luigi64 lol yes
Hookers n' Cocaine hawks fan. I’m not a bandwagon. I moved to Nashville and they are good now and the hawks aren’t good. But I’m not leaving the hawks
Sports Games really? How long have you guys been out of the WCF?
6:06 that object is the shark that is lowered down at the start of every game when the sharks get on the ice
2:14 AHHH MY OCD
Haha same here, wish I didn’t see that
Barclays center sucks wait till the islanders new belmont stadium is finished
This channel is growing like crazy!
the fucking penguins...
PieEater Lets Go Caps, Lets win the presidents trophy so the penguins can woop us agian
Benoir_ fuck off lol
The thing I like about your channel is, since it's not that big you can interact with your fans like big channels can't.
All day every day!
United center is no where close to flat.
I fell like I’m gunna have a heart attack when I look down
Same for PNC
Holy shit your channel is growing so fast. I remember when you said you wanted 500 by the end of the year haha
Yeah the original goal was 500 within 1 year! So far it's been over 7000 in 6 1/2 months!
Post2Post Do you have a new goal for the end of year?
Nope, no goals from here on out. The only goal I have no is to be consistent and find a long term sponsor so I can do this full time.
THANK YOU FOR PRONOUNCING IT AS S-A-P!!!! It's a Pet peeve of every SJ Sharks fan. BTW The thing in the SAP picture Is the shark head the players skate out of.
Diego Contreras its S-A-P and the everyone loves the Sharks head! I hate it when people say "SAP" too. LETS GO SHARKS!
Diego Contreras how have they not heard of the shark head??? lol one of the trademarks of the SAP Center
and I bet the sponsors do too! ;-)
To be fair, if they've never been to SAP, or watched too many games on national TV, it's entirely possible. The Sharks are always getting the short end of the national television listings; even in the year after winning the President's Trophy.
The gold seats you were critical about at the ACC/SBA in Toronto were made that way to mimic the colour scheme that was in place at Maple Leaf Gardens (where the “Golds” were the best seats).
Someone may have already pointed this out, but The Florida Panthers first played at the now gone Miami Arena near Downtown Miami from the 1993-1994 through the 1997-1998 seasons, they moved in to their current arena, located in Sunrise in 1998 and it was a brand new arena then. Previous names were National Car Rental Center 1998-2002 Office Depot Center 2002-2005 and BankAtlantic Center 2005-2012. Like I said someone may have already pointed this out, but I am way too lazy to read through over 1000 comments to find out.
YankeeTen13 Go Red Wings Im a detroit fan too
You should rename this video the roast of Barclays Center lol
The Isles will never win a SC in this building. The architects should be hung from the rafters, off center of course.
Or maybe rename it "Oilers Arena Ranks #1" That would be a "slick" name (Oil pun intended). ;+) this is my attempt at a winking Hockey Players face...
Have a great day. Cheers from Edmonton City, Canada.
Fun fact: The once arena was originally made for the nc state Wolfpack basketball team then the hurricanes pitched in the final 20 million they needed to build it in 1997
Xcel Energy Center every seat is a good see I like siting up high the best !
Minnesota Arctic Blast I visited Xcel in 2013, great arena it was just weird how it was connected to an office building lol
Minnesota Arctic Blast the xcel is great I agree 100%
Maddhouse it is?
Joseph Klein Yeah I'm assuming it's the Xcel Energy Company that is attached
its not connected to a office building it is connected to a convention center....
Went to Centre Bell. Love it
Went to Air Canada Centre (raptors game) love it
Went to Staples Center (love the venue. hate the team)
Going to T-MObile Arena tommorow for the award show.
But my home will always be at the Pond, aka Honda Center. :)
Take some pics of the award show and T-Mobile center and tweet them at me!
Post2Post for sure man!
Stefan Moreno Cool, you hate the Kings too!!!:):):)
I Saw a Lightning Senators Game in Tampa at The Amelia Arena in March Last Year Wearing My Flyers Stuff Very Nice Arena It Was on Both The Outside and The Inside I Would Put That Arena at #2 Behind The Wells Fargo Center at #1!
T-Mobile is a beautiful arena my friend went inside on opening day when he was visiting Vegas and just from the pictures, I will be sure to go to lots of games.
A friend of mine helped build Rogers Place in Edmonton years ago (he is an ironworker) , About a week ago he brought me there to watch my first ever live NHL game (Oilers Vs Boston) since I was in Edmonton visiting.
I was totally blown away by the arena and the things it had in store for the fans. I even walked away with a signed puck and goosebumps... So, I totally see why you picked it as your number one arena.
It was one of the most extraordinary events in my life watching the game there.
Thanks for all the great stuff you share on your channel ! ! !
That’s a super old picture for nationwide. I remember that scene from when I was 5😂
as a person who has qatched games in the xcel energy center there are no issues with seeing the game and they have a cool lighthouse thing and cool suite level seats plus the cosway where the vendors are is cool too
i don't know if you guys knew but the oilers seats aren't made like that. I live in Edmonton and i have been to rogers place 6 times already. They put flags, jerseys, and other merchandise on the seats to make the symbol. They have done it twice this season maybe 3. Season and rogers place opener, fan appreciation night, and idk but maybe the first playoff game. I don't like to give away my own arena but i thought i should let you know.
Yeah, despite what they said in the video it IS a multi use facility and all the seats are black. What you're seeing in that image is T-shirts laid over each chair to make the pattern and yes the fans get to keep them.
Vadoosh Skadoosh yea
Yeah the seats are all black those are just flags in the photo he used during the first Oilers home game in the arena
Crush Gunner exactly I don’t know what these guys are talking about at all.... that was a concept picture when they were making it
Dustin K It is a multi-use facility but they said the Oilers are clearly the main tenant and they're not wrong. The building was made catered to the Oilers, although it holds other things it's an Oilers building at heart. The t-shirts aside Rogers Place looks amazing on TV and even better in person, everything from the ice to the view to the seating chart is breathtaking. It's funny how nobody talks about Rexall anymore.
I went to the SAP arena, back in 99 when it was called HP Pavilion or something like that, and the shark mascot got stuck halfway down the roof. Quite funny.
I guarantee you that the top balcony seats in the Xcel Energy Center in St. Paul where the Wild play can see the rink without obstruction from the jumbo tron.
I can attest to that. There is zero visibility problem anywhere st The Xcel.
I've watched probably at least 20 Wild games from up there and I'm always impressed by how overhead and close to the action you feel.
I'd actually prefer the upper deck at The Xcel to anywhere else except for seats on the ends just off the glass. That is a thrill. Not to mention gorgeous trophy women everywhere taking selfies:( and talking throughout the game.
@@braddocke.hutton7392 your right. Ive been there so many times and in so many different seats and theres not a bad one
I wish that they make a new list soon cuz Detroits LCA is BEAUTIFUL!!!
Wells Fargo Center is nice to see a Sixers game. Really wanna see a flyers game someday there. It’s pretty wild
@Josh Stephens I've Seen Some Flyers Game at The Wells Fargo Center But Not For a Flyers Playoff Home Game!
10/10 would see another flyers game been to 6 would recommend
Skrew Barclays center, I’m just hyped for the islanders new stadium in Belmont in 2021.
Xcel energy center is a great arena and you can actually see fine in it, one of the best things about it is that basketball teams don't play there either, great list keep up the awesome work 👍👍👍
I know right even the nose bleeds are awesome sears
completely agree it is easy to see and great vantage points. It is also not ordinary either because you come in at the top of the sections instead of the middle of the sections like many others. maybe you should judge on not just a picture off the internet.
and not to mention our goal horn. A lighthouse that has a functioning light and foghorn with fog, not just
some generic fog coming from the scoreboard.
Canadian bias!!!! Booooo
The td garden has something most people dont recognize. Their are no bad seats at the Garden. I've been their for hockey basketball and concerts and seating wise,I have no complaints. I usually sit upper deck and sometimes halfway up behind the net for bball and hockey
Johnny M A definite improvement over the original garden. Haha
I’ve been in madison square garden multiple times. I had a tour through the arena. And in the top corners you have the press balcony in your way. So the highest seats don’t have a view of the ice at all.
yet here is the thing, As a person who has gone to every frozen four for the last 10 years, The TD garden had the worst seats physically to sit in, and the upper balcony had the worst views of any of the pro hockey rinks that we visited. Loved the city, but really thought the stadium was meh.
I was lucky enough to get to 7 or so games at the old Gahden in the late 80s while working in NH. I would not trade that experience for any of the new arenas. Old, dingy, maybe but reeking of history. Orr, Espo. Hodge, Cheevers, I tried to take it all in it was quite the experience. Right over the ice up in the balcony.
The United Center is not that flat. it's just the camera angle
San Jose, top 5 best playoff arena. Very, very, very loud tightly packed and just a blast
Nassau Coliseum hands down. Mistake letting the Isles go back to Brooklyn for Round 2
In the sap center the object in the left hand corner is the shark. The shark is the object they skate through when its game time. Nashville, Edmonton they have those two. Just different objects
If you went to MSG, it would be in your top 5 at least. Electric.
John Abbate i live in calgary i went to a game its awesome
MSG is amazing regular season and beyond amazing in the playoffs. Those fans REALLY care about their team.
I would say top 10. certainly not 30. I've been to the Garden when the Rangers wore there white jerseys and Blue. i'm from the area I would say top 10 makes sense. MSG.
Agreed. I went on a Canucks eastern road trip last season.
MSG was probably my favorite, that or the united center
I wonder if this ranking was done prior to the big MSG renovation? I would like to see where MSG ranks now.
Are you going to do a third hockey trivia? I really enjoyed playing along!
I hope so!
I've sat in quite few areas in the Xcel energy center. Every seat is good for hockey. Upper level feels like you are right on top of the ice, and lowers are good too. Not a bad seat in the house.
The MTS centre is one of the smaller arenas in the NHL
Indeed it is!
But oh so loud for our size.
That smaller size helps with the noise. Similarly, the old Miami Arena only had 14,000 or so seats, but the tight area and low roof made it a very loud place in the Panthers' Stanley Cup run.
Bell MTS Place has the least seats in the NHL.It really wasn't meant to be an NHL
arena. AHL and concerts/events is what it was built for.On a very small footprint of
land too.
Still better than most though
the funny looking object at SAP center is the shark head that they skate out of before games. it's covered w/ a tarp
At 6:07 the "Weird Object is the Shark that drops down to the ice, and the Sharks team skates through during pre-game.
I think it's a tricky thing, because I understand how this rating works, but one of the difficult things is to rate based off of the atmosphere. The fans, the noise, the energy is a major factor
The Wild have such a nice arena, and funny enough, Pittsburgh based their arena off of our design. Anyways, what’s also cool is the interior of Xcel has a lighthouse style to match to “North-shore” of Lake Superior (Split Rock Lighthouse; it’s super cool!)
So funny enough, if you ranked Pittsburgh high, Xcel should be even higher.... it’s better and the Penguins stole their style and set up (Pittsburgh is a little less organized though than Xcel so that’s why the Wild’s arena should even be higher in the rankings).
Love your videos though, thanks for usually ranking Minnesota high and giving us all the love; besides you San Jose Sharks bias 😂😉
Pittsburgh didnt steal anything. Its the same architect that designed a few other arenas in the NHL. Just kinda his style
Im from Minnesota and i have been to a lot of games there and its awesome
Hahaha bro I’m a huge wild fan and I grew up in Pittsburgh... it’s an unreal arena, 11 years newer than excel and certainly not less organized. You’re a fool letting his bias spew out bullshit
Many hockey arenas have similar styles. That doesn’t mean that Pittsburgh “stole” anything.
Charlie Graves loud atmosphere
How is the saddle dome not worse
ya i’m a flames fan but it’s true, it’s way to old and outdated
That "object " in the upper left hand corner of the interior shot of THE SHARK TANK is THE SHARK HEAD that the Sharks skate through during pregame warmups! GO SHARKS!
Rogers Arena in Vancouver the concourse is incredibly cramped and small...during intermission its near impossible to get anywhere. They're also doing renovations (the Aquilinies) here attaching condos to the stadium lmao. It's pretty cheap there and I work dt so might move there in the near future.
But Im getting away from the point. The concourse at Rogers Arena is puny!!
I like when you guys make ~25 or 30 min videos it keeps me occupied for a while lol keep up the awesome uploads!
I'm a stars fan but live in buffalo the sabres have a solid arena inside and out
You guys should do a Q&A so we can get to know you guys more outside of hockey!
Sure we can do that! We usually take a lot of questions during our Live Streams.
Post2Post good to know, I will surely start watching those. Thanks!
I'm a CBJ fan, and yes, we love the cannon. For those about to rock...
KJPChickenwing FIRE!!! BOOM... WE SALUTE YOUUUU!!!!
WHOA OH OH-OH OH OH OH OH OH OH-OH
Hell yah baby GO JACKETS
We have The Cannon. Sorry, not sorry
Looking Forward to seeing hockey in Seattle
Release the Kraken!
Florida panthers old arena was Miami arena
It was team owner egos!
David Franks go bolts
David Franks 14500 for hockey and now gone
The Panthers' arena is in Sunrise-more a suburb of Fort Lauderdale (not unlike the situation in Ottawa where the CT Centre is almost halfway to Smiths Falls). The Heat plays at the beautiful (at least from the outside) American Airlines Arena right on Biscayne Bay in Miami. It hosts ice shows but the ice surface doesn't appear to be big enough for hockey...I didn't go inside but the seating charts indicate that they'd have to replace some permanent basketball seats with "sliders" in the unlikely event that the Panthers were to come back to Miami.
I love the Pepsi Center!!! Its a well balanced arena!!!
Been to many Avs and Nuggets games there. It's a very nice arena overall and definitely holds a special place in my heart.
I think for San Jose it was during playoffs so that funny looking object was the shark head for their intro that the players go through.
The view from any seat in msg is good I can tell you that
Yes! I've been waiting for this video!
Correction, The TD Gardens seats are NOT all gold. In the upper level yes, all gold. But in the lower level the seats alternate black and gold. Also on either end of the lower bowl the top 5 rows are green, which they have seat side serving.
Minnesota fan, the xcel seating is unreal. They took that into consideration from the beginning. All the seating is unreal, top to bottom.
hilarious to hear him point that out as why he didn't like it. The seating is amazing compared to anywhere else i've been
Charles jones he even said he’s going off the picture. He could have said, “it looks like the upper deck would be tough to see anything but I can’t say that because I haven’t been there”
I really love the videos when you bring along your dad for commentary or opinion. It's great to see a father/son team who happens to share a common passion and you both share the personality trait of being mild mannered, polite, congenial, and both have a knowledge of this great game called Hockey. I agree with your first choice. The interior of Edmonton's arena is absolutely beautiful and kudos to the architects who designed it. I can really only remark upon the only NHL I have visited which is Bridgestone in Nashville. Beautiful exterior but the arena itself not so aesthetically pleasing when empty. However, your dad was correct in saying there seems not to be a bad seat in the house. The seating is on a very sharp incline so wherever you sit you are right on top of the action and there are no obstructions (It was originally built to lure an NBA team but that went to Memphis - Grizzlies). Your father said he would love to attend a game there and he would not be disappointed. PK Subban in one interview said, "pay the price of admission because it is worth every penny." It is. What the city of Nashville did was drop an arena directly next to one of the most famous bar districts in the world. It is surrounded by bars, museums, restaurants, street performers, concert halls, shops, and a multitude of other things to do. The area is very busy minus a hockey game so for visiting fans there are a ton of other entertainment options in addition to the game and most of these places feature live music of every genre. Even inside the arena there is live music both in the concourses and inside the arena proper. So, for a visitor, even if drinking alcohol is not one's cup of tea, there are a ton of things to see and do either prior to or after a game but a Preds game itself is really an experience of its own and is fantastic and Preds fans provide a very unique and lively atmosphere.
Awesome comment thank you so much for leaving that! :)
Post2Post I can't believe you read that😂
Haha, you read it too.
That funny looking object in the SAP Center is the shark head that players have to go through during introductions
There are other things to take notice of when ranking these stadiums however.
1) Accessibility, how easy is it to get to the Arena? Plenty of parking space? Nearby to the city centre? (MSG is located in the heart of Manhattan for example, which is a great thing, and thus deserve a slightly higher ranking imo)
2) The amount of vendors and toilets inside. I think we all can agree that lines suck and you dont wanna waste 15 min to get a bloody bag of popcorn or get to the restroom in time.
3) Prizes. Some teams charge more than others, but that should also affect the ranking system.
I honestly don't wanna pay $150 for an average seat during a mid-season game.
For the most part,you won't have that problem as long as it's not a rivalry game between two great teams. I've found great seats for $80 and less for Capital One Arena for the Capitals.
The Xcel energy center has every nhl teams banner hanging btw
Phillies 235 as does t mobilr
And at amalie
And Nationwide
Gaylord arena as well
I know you might not have the money but you should go to the excel energy center the seats are very good prices are cheaper then other games and the screens don’t block anything
Calgary Flames Arena is Awesome ... gotta love the Fireballs and fire explosions
C of Red baby !!!
You must be from Alberta. (Edmonton fan here). Remember that Rogers Place got #1 ranking. i occasionally cheer for Calgary if they are matched up with an American Team. interesting colour scheme and jersey logo. Yet when it comes to arenas? Hmmm... i have to say Edmonton is on fire baby! And slick (can't resist an "Oil" pun) as can be ;)
Does Calgary really have explosions? Are they super loud? That would be cool to see.
Have a great day.
P.S. C's (Seas are blue) like a C of Oilers Royal Blue and Orange. lol
The Isles need to be back in Nassau Coliseum. PERIOD
I agree man
Bryan B they are
@@carterbickle1 for 1 playoff series match-up and that is isles sweep over the pens in round 1
I hope Belmont will be cool
The black thing on the top left corner of the sharks arena is the gate or shark head that the players go through before the game. I don't know why they covered it though.
"who watches baskwtball" im like bruhh.
ericson rendon f
I watch basketball
It was a joke...
Great video! I loved the cheerleader part :P Although I've never seen or met a passionate Carolina fan. They always seem to be the one team that disappoints me with their fanbase.
However I totally agree with the banner idea in Columbus! They also have this in Nashville as well as Minnesota.
And as much as I don't want to spoil it for you, that's not what the seating looks like in Rogers Place. :( They put a t-shirt over every seat for the first couple days for that effect, but unfortunately it's not permanent, as much as I wish it was. I'm still very happy it was ranked #1 for both exterior and interior!
Again, another really well done video. I love being able to see the pictures in the back and you guys at the same time. It's fun to hear other people's perspective, especially two wise, passionate hockey fans like you! I'm so glad to see this channel growing at the rate it is :)
Izey Fro you have just met a passionate canes fan
Guess you didn't go to the Stanley Cup in Raleigh.
The upper deck at Las Vegas T-Mobile Arena is a little scary. But once everyone is seated, it doesn't feel as steep. And I heard that it was somewhat modeled after Nashville's Bridgestone Arena.
Sharks fan.. I've only been to a few arenas - T-Mobile is AMAZING, SAP is kind of simple but nice, Rogers in Vancouver is junk.
T-Mobile is awesome! Especially when your a VGK fan, but if your a sharks fan that must be hard. I’ve never been to a lot of arenas for hockey but plenty of baseball ones. Anyways hope you guys do good in the playoffs!
In the S.A.P center the funny looking object is the shark where they come out of
Personally from a TV fan perspective, I think the shark tank is one of the best arenas in the NHL...and that object you're wondering about is the legendary shark!!!
Just to let you know
At the ppg paints arena there is no such thing as a bad view
Was literally thinking the very same thing ...now the old Civic Arena that's a different story lol
how the hell is calgary number 3!? i have been there many times as i am a flames fan but it needs to be upgraded
I agree, but the design is still good, looking, but it is not functional for many things, We need calgary Next!!!
True that. Murray Edwards, owner of the Flames, is one of the richest people in Canada. He also recently changed his residence to London England in order to avoid taxes from here. So, with that mentality, I believe he has exactly ZERO entitlement to Calgary tax dollars to fund his private business.
Because both of these hosers are Canadian, that's why.
You obviously never saw a game in the old Winnipeg Arena.
If your a flames fan, why are you upset about them ranking our arena high? You should be happy that it’s ranked so high. And what’s so bad about it? It’s just an arena, if they build a new one will there be a huge difference? I think it would look pretty similar, just a hockey rink with seats around it.
I've been to games at the T-Mobile Arena in Vegas where I live, and tickets are getting more and more expensive and so we have been sitting way up in the top deck, we have been directly in front of the scoreboard up there and it is perfect and doesn't block anything and is perfect for videos over intermissions. One of the games I went to was round 3 game 4 against he Jets and it was electric. They also have smoke and lights and really cool shows, it is a great place to watch hockey because it is so much more.
that is an old picture of MSG believe me seeing a game in person is an amazing experience that is very worth it
Oliver Berman I know it’s ridiculous that he listed it one place above the Barclays center the Barclays center is a shit show it’s a disgrace to MSG to be listed that low like honestly🤮 MSG is so much better in person to watch the game at.
@@marktorrejr3284 Two hosers dumping on American Arenas
Dino Pappous yeah facts
@@marktorrejr3284 Isn't this supposed to be about the experience from INSIDE the arena ? Not about TV Broadcast ? That is dependant upon the production of the game, usually not a factor of the arena itself.....next...
Just FYI, that's the old scoreboard at Nationwide (Columbus). I love the newer one. Much better
The "object in the corner" at SAP center is the shark head that the players skate at the beginning of every game.
My top five in no particular order:
Boston (hometown bias but it really is a great place to watch hockey)
St. Louis
Toronto
Vegas
Edmonton
brody10123 yeah I love td garden as well but then again I am a Boston boy
I haven't been to all but the best arenas, I would say in no particular order:
Montreal
Tampa
Toronto
Minnesota
Colorado
Boston
Edmonton
Columbus
Dallas
Detroit
Pittsburgh
The picture you got of MSG is the old Madison square garden. It was remodeled in 2013 and has much better lighting and a nice jumbo tron
You're correct, but unfortunately we couldn't find a photo post-renovations that showed the majority of the inside. Brent did look at other photos though, to come up with his rankings.
Post2Post wasn’t sure if anyone noticed but I’m not mad about the ranking, everyone has an opinion 😂 awesome video!
Move MSG up one spot then.
Yes, that will make the world right again.
In 2004, ESPN named the Xcel Energy Center as "Best Overall Sports Venue in the US".
In 2010 they named it "Third Best Stadium Experience in North America".
It houses the longest escalator in Minnesota and, before designing new stadiums, many companies come look at the X as a prime example of how to properly build a sports venue because there is not a single bad seat in the house.
It's a shame they're just judging books by their covers in this vid.
It is a shame Joey, and we would very much love to visit the Xcel Energy arena some day. We are very much looking forward to it! However, we did the best we could with what we had. Visiting all the NHL arenas to make a video is a financial impossibility for us.
