The last time I went to see the Hawks, Dennis Savard was playing for them I went alot in the late 80's to the Stadium, but I've never been to the United Center. I'm taking my family to Sundays game.

 

I'm coming up I94 from Indiana and I was wondering if I can exit right on to Madison?

 

Also, the game is at 2pm. How early do they let you in?

 

 

You should get on the 290 from I94 and get off at Ashland or Damen.It will be a longer drive if you get off on Madison from I94.

Thanks, Do you know what time they let in before the game?

Ya, they let in an hour and a half before the start.Same goes for concerts and the other sports played there.

Per the UC website, doors generally open 90 minutes prior to the start of sporting events.

I don't have the best seats, I'm sitting in section 227, but my son and I are excited to just go.

 

thanks for your help.

Those aren't bad seats.

I have section 303 for Sunday but my cousin might be coming through with a suite.

Either this Sunday or the 16th from what he tells me.

Since I already have tickets for this Sunday I'm hoping he gets the suite for the 16th.

I looked up tickets for a couple of games last year and there was good seats available the day before the games. This year it looks like everybody (including me) have found an interest in the Hawks.

Enjoy Jim,you are going to find the UC experience much diffrent than the old Chicago Stadium experience.

At least at the United Center I shouldn't have to sit behind a beam I did that twice at the Stadium.

I'll warm them up for you. I'm going to the game in Dallas tomorrow!

Where should I meet you guys

 

Section 227 at the UC is nice seats. They have a waiter/ress that works each of those sections, so theoretically you never have to leave your seats if you don't want to. Its also a smaller section with less people in it, and more of a season ticket holder crowd. You'll enjoy it, just don't expect it to be like the Madhouse on Madison. It is definately a more sterile experience. Kinda like going from Old Comiskey to the New.

I sent you a pm.

...who are you again, exactly?...

 

I sent one back.

 

Mike, you gonna be at Sunday's game, or are you just trying to be funny.....and failing.....again?

So this section is like the 300 level sections at the Cell. I sat up there once and it was nice. Not alot of traffic up there, plus I got to shake Minnie Minnoso's hand

Yeah, that's a fair comparison.....but I wouldn't hold out much hope of Minnie being at the Hawks game.

Nah, failing as usual

That is a very solid comparision actually. You'll like it as long as you don't expect the old barn.

I'll warm them up for you. I'm going to the game in Dallas tomorrow!

What did you think of the AAC?

What did you think of the AAC?

 

Meh. I wasn't that impressed. And Stars fans are kinda jerks. The fans that were there, that is. But, the 'hawks got absolutely smoked at the game, so they were pretty loud, and they shoulda been. I like the area around the AAC, though.

The area around the arena is just spectacular, compared to what was there even three years ago. It's really grown up.

 

I like the AAC, but not as much as some other places I've been. Part of my "fondness" is that I worked there for 2.5 years. I know that building very very well.

 

 

My family and I had a Blast today

 

The National Anthem was as loud as I remember it at the Stadium and our seats were alot better than I thought they'd be. My kids are already asking when we can go again.
