Three Rivers Classic Tickets

This is the third year we have attended the Classic - I guess it helps that my favorite University has played all three years. It's a great way to experience ice hockey at the Consol Center without paying the arm and leg that a Penguins' game cost. Having said that, it seems to me that if the organizers could make the tickets a bit more affordable that they might attract a larger crowd and could offset the lower ticket prices by selling more concessions at their exorbitant costs (i.e. two hot dogs, a 16 oz. soda drink and a bottle of water was $20). Just a thought. Good hockey at an reasonable price.

The four college hockey teams provided 2 quality hockey games on day 1. This year's classic offered 3 top 20 teams and WMU played well despite not being ranked. Both games were entertaining. The goalies for each team made great saves. The local matchup between RMU vs. PSU was highly spirited. Even though not affiliated with either school, I found the atmosphere was enhanced by the enthusiasm of each team's fans and the by the RMU pep band. It was certainly different than attending a Penguins NHL game (except for the concession stand prices).

The event was well organized and the facility was also nicely prepared for the event. Unfortunately the on ice officials ruined the hockey game by their poor officiating.

We have been going to the Three Rivers Classic since it began. Truth be told, the first year was the best year because (a) it was a bit cheaper and (b) there were a lot more people. The teams were fairly evenly matched and the games were all very good. This is such a good concept and could be a great event if it were a little cheaper and was more aggressively advertised. I don't think I heard or saw one thing about these games anywhere. This is a good way to get families to go see hockey games, especially those with younger children. But it is starting to get a little too expensive. If the organizers would advertise more and make the tickets cheaper, say $25.00 each, I think you can get a heck of a crowd there.

Our family really enjoyed the Three Rivers Classic college hockey tournament. NCAA Div I is played at a very high level and get to watch the game at a venue like Consol Energy Center makes it that much better. Having both local teams (Robert Morris and Penn State) ranked in the NCAA top 20 makes the games even more exciting. Bottom line, we highly recommend the Three Rivers Classic.

Great event with 4 good teams. I didn't get to use my tix because I was invited to a suite both days, but still would have had a great time anyway. Unfortunately this is the only time of year I can afford tix for hockey about Consol. Keep supporting RMU hockey! Big thanks to Jim Vitale and the RMU athletic department.

This is the second time I have been to this event in three years. There's been no improvement on attendance or atmosphere. Penn State needs to support this event with the Blue Band, Nittany Lion, etc. Students and alumni from Pittsburgh need to be aware of this event. Advertising and online information is virtually non-existent. The other two teams besides PSU and RMU should be within driving distance or have solid fanbases. Notre Dame or Michigan would help. This event has a lot of potential but I'm afraid that it's just going to die off.

Great games and great seats. An awesome opportunity for anyone who likes college hockey to watch 2 games over 2 days.

Great Event College Hockey at its Best! Definitely worth going.

GREAT GAMES AND SEATS. WILL GO AGAIN NEXT YEAR IF THEY HAVE IT AGAIN. MY 3RD STRAIGHT YEAR OF GOING.

Great hockey in a good atmosphere. Good to see young talent that will be future nhl players

Seats were fantastic and the level of hockey was outstanding. I hope to go every year!!!

A wonderful time for a hockey loving rand father and his 12 year old goalie grandson.

Had a wonderful time at the event! Being on the glass was such a memorable experience. I was happy to see the venue had mostly all it's concessions open.

The price was perfect and the hockey was at a great level. If you love hockey there is no reason you shouldn't be here next year.

It was kind of a boring matchup. One team ran train, the other lost dramatically. Not a good matchup for either game. Our seats were good though.

went with my college age son, had great seats to a great event. Wonderful crowd of people, we will go again!

As true hockey fans, hockey is always good. Just wish the competition was a little better. But overall enjoyed!

The hockey was great; the teams had local and national appeal. To watch #6/7 Boston College in action was a wonderful opportunity. Can't wait to purchase tickets for next year's Classic.

Excellent 2 day hockey event. Team selection was great. Even though BC dominated, it was great to see that level of talent at the collegiate level. The consolation game between RMU and BG was very competitive. PSU did very well being relatively new to this level of competition. My 8 year old son insists we make it an annual event. I can't argue with him. Highly recommend anyone attend this event. Consol Energy Center is an outstanding facility, and it's a great chance to see excellent hockey without spending a small fortune. We attend 5-6 Penguins games per season in the upper level (212). This gave us an opportunity to sit very close to the boards/glass. I hope they continue to attract this level of collegiate talent in the future.
