Looking forward to games there. I'm already balancing season tickets with the Roadrunners and filling in Coyotes non compete days so adding ASU's schedule will add to the challenge. With ASU being closest to my Chandler home they may take precedence over the Coyotes, at least for a season or two.

So cool. I can’t wait to go to a game there. My prediction is a national championship by the end of the decade.

That was really cool Craig, makes me want to get season tickets for ASU hockey instead of my coyotes season tickets!!

Wow! What a great use of VR. I can see what my view will look like from seats etc.

Have not seen any info about ADA car parking near the arena-old Canadians need to know before we go.

That's a very cool VR simulation they have. Back in late 2019, I caught a game at Quinnipiac's new arena, and this reminds me of that in the layout... but ASU added some luxury boxes and a club, which is pretty cool. https://gobobcats.com/facilities/frank-perrotti-jr-arena/18

Also Craig, the photo caption says you're looking "west" at Rural Road. I scratched my head for a few minutes before digging out your prior article which shows the arena being built to the west of Rural Road. Your photo is looking east.
