The Wolves were trying to burst my eardrums with fireworks, bombs. flames, and bad music. The game wasn't much to watch with no goals scored until a shoot-out.
I went with my daughter and grandchildren and we all loved the entire game. Easy access to the Arena, section we satin at was easy to find, the Mascot was funny, the Cookie Drop and T-shirt throw was fun. The Fireworks display was great. I was sorry they lost because they played a great game.
The wolfs game was just Ok. They dont hit as hard as the NHL, the clock stops for way to many penaltys and it is just not as fun in the stands.
I decided to buy tickets to the opening game of the Chicago Wolves at the Allstate Arena. I purchased them online and picked them up at will call. The box office did not have a separate window for will call so I had to wait for others to buy tickets. I brought my wife and my 8 year old son. This was our first hockey game. We had 7th row seats at the blue line. The seats were almost too good. We could not see the puck when it was close to the boards on our side. Overall though we had a great time. Next time I think I will get first row center ice on the balcony for a better view of the ice.
If youm like hockey I recommend going to a wolves game. The hockey is almost as good as the NHL and it is much cheaper. I had a great time and will be attending many more games in the future.
My friends and I had a great time at the opening night of the AHL. Although the Wolves lost the game, overall it was a great way to kickoff the seson. Go Admirals!!!
We drove 8 and a half hours from Nashville just to watch our hockey team's AHL farm team, the Milwaukee Admirals play the Chicago Wolves at their home opener (Chicago is closer than Milwaukee, so it made sense). We got to the arena with little time to spare, but thankfully made it through Will Call quickly and were pointed to our seats right as the lights went dim. The season opening pyrotechnic show has put anything I've seen in a handful of NHL arenas to shame! The game was great. Some of the food choices looked delicious, though a tad pricey. The only real complaint I could make at the end of the evening (since the team we were rooting for won - go Ads!) - would be the lack of attention to people getting up and moving around when the game is in play. At NHL arenas, there are attendants that stop people from leaving or entering the aisles until there is a stoppage in game play, so there aren't people standing up and blocking other peoples' view of the game. Other than that - a great time to say the least, and not the last time we drive nearly 9 hours to hit up the Allstate Arena!
I love going to Chicago Wolves hockey games with my girlfriend because it is a lot of fun and affordable. It is a good event to take the whole family to. I suggest you try to go to at least one game if you can!
