Complete blow out early on. I'm a huge Pitt fan but if you want a good close game avoid this game.
Pitt won! What could be better!?! My daughter and I always enjoy the City League game. It's become a tradition!
I really enjoyed my Saturday afternoon at the Consol Energy Center for the City Game between the awesome Pitt Panthers and the efete Duquesne Dukes. Of course being with my friends make any event very pleasurable for me but I really like viewing sporting events at the Consol Center. The only suggestions I would make about doing anything at the Consol Energy Center is of course parking and getting out of parking to go home. But there really anything you can do about those things so I will simply put up with it. But what I do think can be done is to place signs on the approach to the Consol Center to show a table with the sections of the Center and which gate you should enter so you have the most efficient way to get to your seats. Right now you pretty much have to take pot luck and hope you somehow get to your seat. Once again I would imagine visual aids out on the street would not be in our future so I guess I'll simply enjoy finding out what is in different parts of the Consol Energy Center.
This was my first visit to the Consol Center. Nice facility, although some strange practices. First, the doors did not open until an hour before tip-off. To make matters worse, they opened nearly 10 minutes late. The security measures employed here are well beyond other places I have attended sporting events, to the point of removing every single metal item from your pockets, including change. So, needless to say, not a very friendly welcome. The arena is nice, although not over the top compared to many similar venues that I have visited around the country. Concession prices are every bit as high as New York City, which should not be the case in a market like Pittsburgh. Food and beverage quality was average. I understand people have a preference for Coke or Pepsi...but why RC, I have no idea? Bad idea, from my perspective. The game was entertaining and closer than expected for the first 22 minutes. Pitt eventually blew out the Dukes. Since neither school was in session, the crowd had limited numbers of students, which kept crowd noise to a minimum. The "City Game" has become rather one-sided with Pitt's dominance over the past 15 years or so. As a Pitt fan, I was happy to have attended.
Great venue and game! We had a great time and I'd recommend it for next year.
The city game was a great time at the Consol Energy Center. Will be attending next year ! I would recommend going to this game.
The game was exciting after years of essentially being a Pitt blowout. At least the Dukes held their ground for most of the game.
It was enjoyable to watch PITT Basketball game but unfortunately Duquesne basketball isn't competitive at this time.
Loved game. Duquesne brought their A-game but couldn't keep up with Pitt in the end
