The Dover Arena is a dark green and dingy white color on the outside. Its gigantic heavy, dark green doors are in the center at the front of the concrete building. You walk in and immediately feel the swift cool breeze that smells like burnt popcorn and over salted crispy brown pretzels. The floor is lined with specialized gray rubber for the skaters. In front of your very eyes, you see the green front desk, with the helpful workers dressed in their green jackets ready to assist you with any of your needs. On top of the front desk you see a gray colored old fashioned tv with a coat of dust over the screen.
To the right of the green painted front desk, is a marked-up shiny whiteboard that has scratches all over it from erratic young

Farther along, to the right, you can see what looks like a grey shed along the arena walls. It's the massive home of the green, white, and yellow painted Zamboni, that has an overwhelming amount of ads on its sides. Beside that is the green heavy metal door that leads you into a jet black rubberized floored hallway. The hallway is lined with dark green doors that contain heaps of benches and foul-smelling hockey equipment and players. There is also conference rooms and special offices for the people who run the arena. On the right, you can take a turn and head into the second arena. Or you can keep straight and end up in the huge lobby filled with an abundance rambunctious people. When you take a right, there are two metal doors with box-shaped windows on the upper half. When you open the door you are accompanied by obnoxious screaming people banging on the fogged up glass, mad at the refs for not calling the right things. You can see the stands on either side of you as you walk in. They are old wooden brown stands that are split apart by an entryway in the dead center of the arena that has black rubber flooring. On your left, you see thousands of wooden benches stacked on top of each other and is the first half of the bleachers. To the right, you see the other half of the bleachers with matching brown wooden benches. On both sides above the bleachers is a shiny white wall with a singular slick, polished green strip that stops when it reaches the center

The United Center took the place of the old Chicago Stadium on August 18, 1994 and became home of two remarkable teams. The United Center was built by William Wirtz (owner of the Blackhawks), and Jerry Reinsdorf (majority owner of the Blackhawks and team chairman of the Bulls). The Blackhawks and Bulls each own 50 percent of the Center in a joint venture. It is the largest arena in the United Stated and the NBA. The United Center has hosted over 200 events each year and 40 million guests since its grand opening in 1994. It has a seating capacity of 20,917 seats and has kept the old nickname of Chicago Stadium. For the fans, the United Center has places called the Fandemonium, the Locker Room, and the Windy City Grill. The United Center's acoustics were designed to make the noise level loud to recreate "The Roar" like it was at Chicago Stadium. Also the United Center was renovated in 2009 and 2010 to make 169 executive suites on the third level. It also has 144 flat screen televisions, new food and beverage stations, and two new bars that open to panoramic views, new signs, new menu items, new concession stand and seating in 326 called "Backstage", two new novelty areas, and new video systems. The United Center is portrayed very well on its website and on NBA website. The website talks about the history and what it has to offer to its fans.
From the time you step in the stadium, it’s “Showtime.” The crowd is normally dressed to a “T.” The Barbershops, Hair Salons, Nail shops and stores have met their
Standing in front of the Athletic Center looking left to right, the many sharp angles that make up the exterior walls are more than eviden/t. The subtle, light tan color of the top-half of building touches the brick lower-half like the way water meets oil. The windows are painted on the top-half of the building to add some shimmer as the sun blazes through. The brick half is a razor-edged wave turning corners sharper than a Nascar driver during the Sprint Cup Series. Block, brick, and cast stone make up the exterior walls of the Center. The process includes “laying brick with mortar, painting and application of ceramic products” (Condeixa et al, 2015, table 2). The entryway is a curved tower held up by four brick pillars. The center of the entryway is adorned with a glass medallion; engraved in the glass is the Spartan logo like two lovers names engraved in their favorite tree as a beautiful reminder of what is and what used to be. Keeping guard at either side of the entrance are two Spartan soldiers, they welcome students and fellow Spartan lovers through the shadowy cave that leads to the six glass doors. However, they are always equipped with sword and shield in hand ready to take on anybody that dares to challenge or threaten their arena. Day and night they protect the Athletic Center, ensuring that its true purpose is never stolen: the love of sports and of
A roller rink in La Habra is not only a great business move, but would also hugely enhance the city. The roller rink would be a successful business move because the city is in great need of more entertainment. As frequent visitors of La Habra, the city lacks recreation areas to enjoy with friends and family. With only a couple locations to choose from in La Habra, it is always necessary to seek entertainment in other cities. This is why the roller rink in La Habra would be a perfect fit, it needs a location filled with fun, and the city has the perfect market. Introducing an affordable and fun option to the residents of La Habra is a great way to better the city.
The arena has seven structural levels as shown in figure 3. The top most level is the upper suite level, then the lower suite level, followed by the upper concourse level. The arena bowl level is where the actual sporting event takes place. The arena bowl level is followed by the main concourse level which is at the same elevation with the entry lobby. The bottom-most level is the entry level.
Of course, due to the intensely large amount of traffic, we got there later than I had hoped. We sped through the parking lot and up the ramped section to climb to the top of the parking garage, because oddly enough, the rink is on top of a six story parking lot. We pulled up to
Newly Renovated Arena: updated game clock/ score board; hundreds of televisions added for better spectator views
The first time I stepped into the Xcel Energy Center, my eyes lit up and my heart skipped a beat. Even though I was a new and inexperienced hockey fan at the time, I realized that this is my happy place. The place where I feel most comfortable, where I long to be all the time. “The X,” as the locals call it, is home to the Minnesota Wild Hockey Club and the venue for my very first live NHL game. After I attended that game in February 2013, I was completely hooked on hockey. Enjoying hockey in Minnesota is not uncommon, but I took it to a whole new level once I became a fan.
“People will clearly notice the improvements. I think the new arena will intrigue a lot of people. We have more space, two concourses and more suites,” said Bomotti.
The facility for a plenty of entertaining activities including open skating is available at Cartier Arena on different time schedules on different days.

Opened in 1993, the Honda Center, formally know as the Arrowhead Pond of Anaheim, is a venue that hosts several events, such as concerts, ice shows, the circus, and various athletics. Yet it is the 2007 Stanley Cup Champions, the Anaheim Ducks, that dominate the scene. Terming the Honda Centers nickname the Pond, or simply Duck's Stadium, by the local crowd. Despite the team's vast gift shop, the Duck's memorabilia rarely decorates the amphitheater's halls, creating a versatile atmosphere for any performance. Regardless, the Honda Center's expensive parking, food/beverages, and seating, leaves me skeptical of my return.
The arena as a whole is located in a vacant forest, it is made of steel, and it is surrounded by twisted dark trees and stumps. On the temple there are many paintings, sculptures, and noble works of art of things such as murderers, adultery, traitors, and other villainous
The part of the Grandstand that we are going to now is the main building. It consists of two floors of merchants selling all sorts of things, from pianos to software to golf clubs to the latest cooking gizmos. A friend of ours works at the Nadachair booth. He is my sister’s friend’s teacher. We usually visit him every year. A Nadachair is basically a cushion for your back with a strap around your waist for extra support. The East Room is just a separate room with more of the same stuff. I usually don’t go there because it is uncomfortably hot in there. The main building and the East Room are under the bleachers.
One beautiful Saturday morning, I woke excited about going to Delaware County Fair as if I was the same age as my young daughter. The day was looking beautiful, as the weather was like a typical fall morning. The breeze I could hear through the window; I felt like this was the perfect day to go to the fair. I opened the door of my daughter’s room to wake them up; I turned on the lights and yelled “It’s morning.” My oldest daughter looked at me with one eye half way open and said “It is not morning.” The sky was still dark as it was a cloudy morning. I told her “We have to go to the fair early so we can stay there all day.” They both jump on me giving me hangs and kisses, as this was the first time they went a fair.
