Better than Phoenix Arizona...or Sunrise Florida...or Exit 16W...
I used to go to a few Panther games every year in Sunrise, almost always vs the Bruins.
The experience always reminds me of the old joke..."I went to a fight but a hockey game broke out".....except at Panther games.....it's more like...."I went to an experiment on Attention Deficit Disorder and a hockey game was spotted."
Between every whistle......a rock concert/light show.
During every TV timeout.....nauseating cheerleader interactions.
During every intermission....mind numbing contests and T shirt bombardments.
Even worse, the brand of hockey on display was docile to put it mildly......"No checking allowed."
I actually feel bad for the Florida franchise because they have to rely on opposition fans to put fannies in the seats....NYers, Cement Heads, Froggies do come out in force when their favorite team lands in S. Florida. And the NHL is somewhat aware....always scheduling these teams during vacations weeks.....Dec. + March/April
Boston Garden regulars (B's + C's) don't know how lucky they are not have to endure such sensory overload....at least not at the level dished out at stadiums hosting bad teams.
Being a cheap bastard, I watch many C's games on free VipBoxTv.SE and these feeds often broadcast the in-stadium antics during commercial breaks. You've got to see what's going on in Dallas. Atlanta and others.
48 minutes of game and 2 hours of mind numbing cheeziness
