Current Events > How many NBA arenas have you been to ?

(+) Yeah! (+)

I've been to Cleveland and Charlotte for a game . Don't think I've been to any for non NBA reasons, like Nhl or college

Oracle and Chase Center

.5

I went to a Bruins game at the Garden

None. I have never been to an NBA game. Only MLB and as a kid I think I once went to an NHL game

I have been to the crypto arena

Ive been to Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee for some Bucks games (including a finals game 2021) as well as a Justin Timberlake concert, and Ive been to the United Center in Chicago for several concerts

One with a different name every time I went.

Back in the days Vancouver, BC , san antonio & Los Angeles.

I liked the one in Vancouver because it was right off a monorail and there was like a mall plaza right by that.

Went to a spurs game. Was my first time in a nba arena...dont remember much of it cause i left like hours after the game.

The losangeles ones i went to... we parked one time by la live (i think its called) and the other underground parking from a hotel (also near la live). Then i travelled back for their championship and went to the la colosseum for that one laker parade.

Question for people who have been in an nba arena

When I see games on tv, some people are right on the edge of the court. Are those just really rich fans or are all the people literally courtside, like associated with the teams in some way?

I went to the old Arco to watch the shitty Kings play the Mavs back in the early 90's.
Reunion Arena to watch the Mavs suck it up to the Spurs in the late 90's,
American Airlines Center back in the mid-2000's to watch the Mavs pound the Suns like they owed them money.

Wells Fargo. But it was for the Flyers.

A little bit of both.

bump

Well I've gone to a Georgetown game. The Wizards also play there so I'm gonna count it.

I've only been to a few college arenas. Mostly the State Farm Arena in Champaign, IL and the Lawlor Event Center in Reno.

Two. Staples Center for a concert, and Gund Arena for a game.

Chicago Stadium (Bulls)
United Center (Bulls)
Bradley Center (Bucks)

The Staples Center for a couple of Kings games back in the 2000s, they played the Blues and the Red Wings.

last basketball game i went to was at the Schott, more than 20 years ago. been to three NHL arenas since, but none that share with an NBA team.

Just MSG (for multiple events, but not a Knicks game) and Barclay's Center. I've also been to an NHL Arena in Buffalo

I think five:

Rockets
Mavericks
Spurs
Wizards
76ers

Never for an NBA game though, always for college basketball or music.

Edit: I have been to a Mavericks game, I forgot.

Oops, voted for 5 then remembered a 6th

The first three games I ever went to were at Key Arena. RIP Sonics
@ Portland Blazers several times in recent years
@ Utah Jazz once (they're my team, but I live in Alaska) in '09
@ Chicago Bulls for a preseason game in like '07
@ Golden State Warriors last November
And the one I forgot, @ Phoenix Suns once in '11

Oracle 20 years ago.

If the warriors make the WCF or Finals, I'm 100% going to chase this year.

Nothing current but I've been to a bunch of spurs games when they used the alamodome.

I have been there twice. First for College graduation and the second for a College Hockey game (I am a fan of the visiting team for that game).

None now, gonna be 1 in a couple months

I put 4-5, but that's if you count being in the arena for something other than a basketball.

Continental Airlines Arena/IZOD Center (NJ Nets)

Barclays Center (Brooklyn Nets)

Madison Square Garden (NY Knicks)

Kaseya Center (Miami Heat) - But when it was American Airlines Arena

Footprint Center (Phoenix Suns) But when it was America West Arena, and was there for a Coyotes Hockey game

I've only been to two, but one of them is now defunct and the other doesn't really count. I went to the Continental Airlines Arena a couple times back when the Nets were the New Jersey Nets. I've been to the Prudential Center a few times as well, but not for any basketball games. The Nets weren't there very long anyway.
