New Orleans Arena- a basketball ball venue?
by Anonymous on 3/22/10New Orleans Arena - New OrleansRating: 2 out of 5These rounds of the tournament are excellent and I would recommend them. This specific venue earns a "fair'" rating. New Orleans Arena was middle of the road in terms of venues for the tournament, but lacked some basic basketball amenities. This event was in a basketball arena and they did not use the scoreboards to show which players were in the game and their point and foul totals. Other scores from around the country were shown and were updated fairly regularly, but again would have been easier and more useful if they took advantage of the basketball scoreboards in the basketball arena. The food in this venue was terrible - long, long lines only to find out half the menu was unavailble. Only a few stands were open to accomodate 10,000+ fans at each session.
