Venue was ok for the event that we attended but there were no signs telling us which door to go in so we walked around the entire center before finding the right one. Once inside, there were no signs indicating where any concessions were, not sure there were any. Facility was clean and bright. More

Some events only allow entrance from one side. I was directed by parking attendants, told them I was there for cheer competitition and they said, "yes, park right here" then I had to walk around the entire building when I could have parked on the other side! Irritating. More

Not too big, not too small. Great place to see a concert, only problem is they don't schedule nearly enough shows there. More

The arena was a little slow getting in, but it emptied quite nicely. The parking was only $5 which is not bad and it was close to the arena! Great place - great food, too. More

Went to see Jeff Dunham (he was fantastic) as a present from my sister. We had no problem finding parking right outside and VERY close to the entrance (we were there about 90 minutes early). Inside was very pretty while we were waiting. Only had a small merchandise booth (I would definitely change that set up) and a couple of... More

Attended a Jeff Dubham show here. Seats are tiny, and there is no legroom. If you are 6 feet tall or taller, expect misery. More
