The venue was great it felt like we were at a big event.
The game was exciting, even though we lost. it was a close game. Had a problem with a boy in the front row. He was constantly pounding, punching and kicking the glass. I know this is standard behavior at a hockey game, but this kid was really a problem and his mother was totally ignoring it. She also left him unattended for a long time (almost 45 minutes) Three times a man on the ice skated over and checked the metal post between the glass panels, even fixing one that was loose. The boy stopped for a while when a man in his row told him to knock it off, but started again when his mother left him a second time. I know it's not your job to police every fan, but he made the event alot less enjoyable for everyone in our section. Your man on the ice should have told him to stop. or told his mother to control her brat.
Amazing! Front row at the corner of the glass...so much action...very addicting!...this game made me a true hockey fan!
Son and I saw the above posted event. Met by Ron, an usher and had a blast! Our seats were right on the ice and next to the Marlies bench. I was able to point out to my son various players we had seen when watchiong the games on t.v. Seth enjoyed the event. He scored a jeresey and a puck. Will go again without a doubt. Mick
Really enjoyed the Rivermen game. Haven't been to a Hockey game in over 15 years, decided to take my wife and son to their first Hockey game. They both really enjoyed the game and look forward to going again.
I had a great time Civic Center was a nice Place to see a hockey game. Parking Is easy Peoria was a nice place to visit.
The game started out on an exciting note with a fight breaking out before all of the players were even on the ice; however that was the only fight and only three goals were made during the game (sadly two of the three were the opposing teams...). All told, the game could have been better, but our seats were on the glass and we still had a really good time.
I had no idea what was going on but had a blast. just go see them for yourself.
The game was great: Riv's went down early 3 to 0, then fought back to tie it, and then lost it with 10 seconds left on a breakaway one-on-one. Even though the home town team lost, it was still a great deal of fun. I would like to go back some time next season when its not 'free food' night, because the concessions were outrageously backed up. Hopefully on a regular night the access to concessions isn't so slammed. We had seats in the upper deck but right in the center of the ice, so we had pretty much the same angle as the TV cameras. Will definitely go again.
This was my first time attending a riverman game as well as a hockey. My boys and I really enjoyed this event. We really liked getting a game puck that came over the plexiglass during the game. We already have tickets for another game.
My husband and I had an awesome time at the game. The atmosphere was amazing! The ticket takers, vendors and Rivermen Girls were all so sweet, kind and helpful. The game was outstanding and the intermission time between periods were very entertaining! My husband and I are hoping to make going to Rivermen's game an annual event for us. It was well worth the 2 hour drive and money! Keep up the great work Rivermen!
The game was really good even though there weren't any fights sitting behind the players bench was a good experiance.
The Rivermen make for an exciting game each and every time they hit the ice.
We took the family to see the Riverman vs. Ice Hogs game and it was great!! We had amazing seats on the glass and got up close and personal with some of the players when they crashed into the boards right in front of our seats, This was a great bargain and we will definitely do it again!
Fun game :) Our seats were right behind Texas and they slapped my nephew's hand! He was thrilled :)
The evening started with my granddaughters being able to climb "ice mountain" in the parking lot. This was the left over plowed "SNOW". Very exciting to them, since they were born & raised (all their 8 & 9 years) in Florida. We had wonderful seats, which really held their attention. We truly enjoyed the interaction of the side acitvities with the audiance. Of course the dippin dots were a great hit.!
The Riverman game experience was great. I took my kids and we had a good time. Plenty of good music, fun intermission activities, great food and oh yeah the game was a lot of fun also.
Really enjoy this venue although it is a little far from home...The game was great between these rivals - I will be visiting again soon!
I bought my tickets on line for $25 and the next day they went on sale publicly for $10. Put the damper on my satisfaction level and then the Riverman lost in OT.....Oh well....
Great seats right behind the players benches!!! Action was amazing throughout the game. Fun atmosphere. Riverman Win!!! Overall a great time and definitely recommond going. Great fun for a low price. Can't beat it.
