At my first game, the Albany Devils suffered an upset loss in overtime to the Portland Pirates. No matter. It was a terrific outing. Both teams played like the dickens, the audience was pumped, my glass of Ommegang Rare Vos wowed, the venue was convenient and right sized and parking was easy. My father sprang for rink side seats which, at $ 27 a pop, seem like a very good deal these days. That he was able to get rink side seats at the last minute was also very cool. Not so cool for the people trying to turn a buck on the venture, but great for the fans. I’d strongly recommend you check it out.
