Macon Mayhem at Macon Coliseum
Georgia’s Macon Coliseum, a stone’s throw from the Ocmulgee riverfront, is home to the former Southern Professional Hockey League (SPHL) champions Macon Mayhem. The Mayhem are led by gritty head coach Kevin Kerr, named 2016-17 SPHL Coach of the Year, now in his second stint with the team. Kerr is a professional hockey lifer - in his nearly 20 years as a player, he was a fierce right winger who topped 100 points in a season five times while with the Flint Generals. He brings that same tenacious mentality to a team that features equal parts experience and promise, headlined by players like 2019-20 SPHL top goal scorer Brian Bowen, shifty center Stephen Pierog and fast rising goalie Jake Theut. Mayhem games inside the grandiose Coliseum offer something for everyone, with multiple Family Fun Nights, a ’90s themed night and even a “Margaritaville Night” with a Best Dressed Jimmy Buffet contest. Besides single game tickets, five- or ten-game flex packages are available, as well as season tickets in the upper bowl or up against the glass right in front of the action. Another reason to consider season seats? All packages include exclusive parking lot access, buddy passes, merchandise discounts and more.
Macon Mayhem Background
Founded in 2010 as the Augusta RiverHawks, the team moved to Macon ahead of the 2015-16 season and officially became the Mayhem. They wasted no time making their new presence felt in the SPHL ranks and won the President’s Cup in their second season by sweeping the Peoria Rivermen in the Championship Series. Part of the Macon Centreplex, Macon Coliseum is the multipurpose events jewel of Central Georgia. In addition to hosting all Mayhem home games, the Centreplex hosts monster truck rallies, professional wrestling, the Garden Brothers Nuclear Circus, family-centric events and large-scale concerts from stars like The Avett Brothers, Mary J. Blige and Patti LaBelle.
I took my family that see the Meyham play. It's really good to have hockey in Macon again !! The game was so so good ... High level of play . The game was Tied after the 3rd period , which brought an overtime and then a shootout . The Meyham he really improved quickly , this being their first season . Tickets are Cheap , even behind the glass ... Very enjoyable time ... I will be back !
The semi-pro Macon Mayhem was a good getaway. I enjoyed every minute of the game. I thought the stadium was a little empty with only the bottom bowl being 70% full on a Friday night but this didn't take away from the game itself. The team lost but still but on a great show!
The event was enjoyable, but we froze . Tell people to dress warm. Even in losing, the team played hard with a lot of energy. If you are a hockey fan, this is a good deal. Attendance at the game was disappointing, but that is typical for Macon sporting events. The sound was terrible--but I'm not sure what you can do with that.
Took My 10 yr Old Son to His 1st Hockey Game. .... He Loved It !! Everything was Set Up Nicely. .... Parking, Crowd Control, Merchandising, Food Stands. ... I Will Definitely Be Going Back! !
I am new to the area, but am familiar with NHL. The game was great, lots of great plays and of course great fights! The venue? Scary to start. The plexi glass was broke right in front of us and almost fell over on us. It was held together with a clamp. When the marketing team came out with free tee shirts, they only threw them at the other end, didn't eve bother to come to the far end. Sit in the middle, even though you probably won't get glass seats. This venue is so small that even the cheap seats are good seats. I thought the game was reasonably priced.
