The US FSChampionships was an awesome experience! :)
It was a rare chance in the area to see a national athletic competition. I was blown away! The caliber of talent and athleticism from the athletes, the efficiency of the US Figure Skating Association, and the precision that the coliseum staff showed made the whole event extraordinary! Thanks athletes, USFSA, and the Greensboro Coliseum for a truly wonderful competition.
Exceptional event and performances!! Brought tears to my eyes
Great seats for this event. Four hours flew by. Would love to go again.
My mother and I attended the ice skating senior short dance championships, and found we would not be very good judges, because the skaters were all fabulous. The ice dancing was beautiful to watch. So much talent, great skill, competitive drive, and obviously many hours of practice and hard work were very evident. Also want to mention the wonderful care that the Greensboro Coliseum volunteers gave us by offering complimentary wheel-chair service. Our seats were on the other side of the arena, and my mother would have never been able to walk all that distance there and back afterwards. We had the kindest gentleman help us and made our visit there even more special and memorable. (Thank you, Steve!) The championship skating program brought us much joy and fantastic memories.
The event was fantastic..would love to see it in Greensboro again in the future.
Excellent overall event Ease of traffic/parking coming and going. Great facility. Wonderful hospitality. Organizers should be commended..
After years of watching the US figure skating competitions on television it was a rare privilege to attend the women's short program performances in Greensboro. Many of them were truly breathtaking, and being part of the audience made them even more exciting to watch. I want to thank the staff members of the Greensboro Coliseum for their kindness to my husband and me, senior citizens who had to wait for about 30 minutes for our ride after the performance. They let us stay in the building until almost everyone was gone, then found us warm spots to wait outside.
Figure Skating i always thought was very nice on TV. This was my first time going to see it live. It was incredible!! I recommend this to anyone who loves to watch it on TV, you will not be let down if you go watch it live. Promise!!
My daughters and I loved this girls' night event! It was something we will never forget!
It was wonderful. I was amazed not only at the performers, but how much of the program we were able to see clearly from our seats. I thought that being that the tickets were the 4 for $44 deal we would be in the nose bleed section and would need binoculars to see. We were so wrong! IT A PERFECT LOCATION! I will totally tell my friends about it so they know even if they sit in the higher sections, it will not be terrible at all. Thanks!
This was our first U.S. Figure Skating event. (My adult daughter accompanied me.) It was a lovely evening to be actually witnessing, firsthand, the competitors who may someday be in the Olympics.
first time i went to a ice skating event and i enjoyed watching the skaters perform
Performances were great, venue was great, seats were excellent.
For the cost of an all-event package I expected a lot better from the venue and the program. First, when I bought this pkg in January the homepage indicated that Lysacek and Weir would be participating. They were not, although their photos on the home page continue to mislead. Second, we paid for good seats, we got awful seats -- in the corner on metal folding chairs. Third, the Greensboro Coliseum needs a makeover. It is clear that the venue gets the lions share of its receipts from overpriced low-quality food and beverage, and the sound system must be something from the 60's. Fourth, the program schedule sucks. Unless you are a die-hard skating nut, the practices are not worth it. Overall a terrible disappointment and a waste of time and money.
Had a wonderful time. Very professional and elegant. Would purchase tickets again.
You don't want to miss this once-in-a-lifetime occasion of being able to see the nation's best figure skaters vie for the World Championships and other international assignments in the intimacy of a small arena! Unfortunate that this falls on the same weekend as NHL All-Stars game, but you will see more "game" at the US Figure Skating Championships because they are playing to WIN!!!
To see the up and coming stars was great. There is a lot of talent in these young people and a lot of hard work and dedication to the sport
It was enjoyable and the staff was friendly. !!!!!
Had a blast, went with my daughter Niki and we enjoyed it all. the pairs were amazing along with the men singles!
