My highlights on the negative:
1) Parking is a joke. We always walk hundreds of yards to the arena past a thousand empty parking spaces.. I don't make it down there often enough to get a parking pass, and would've happily paid up to $20 to park (the price it costs to park 50 yards from the Pepsi Center) so, yet another opportunity for missed revenue.
2) Food and Beverage offerings are awful, worse than some high school games I've been to... and transitioning into the next topic:
3) Beer. I know this is a dead horse issue but I feel like the idea is gaining a little momentum. My thought process is three fold i) revenue opportunity ii) atmosphere opportunity/get more people at the arena as opposed to them going to bars or staying home iii) safety... is it safer to allow people to buy 2 beers at the area, or for people to pound beers before they go to the game, probably drive to the arena across Laramie where they can't park?
Curious as to what others mentioned in their feedback.
