| Best Place to Watch Canucks Games - EdgeWater Casino
Hey guys,
Just thought i'd let you guys know about EdgeWater Casino's Stadium Room if you didn't already know.
My friends and I watched all of the Canada Olympic games there and it was pretty sweet. And I just found out that they are playing all Canucks Games as well.
Features;
Admission - free
Stadium Specs: (Thanks to Greenstoner)
430-Person Capacity
290 Stadium-style Seats
Three 18-ft High Definition Projection Screens
State-of-the-Art Sound System
Theater Seating, Booths and Settee Seating
$3 beer
$2 hotdogs
and casino during intermissions (which isn't the best thing...my friend lost $250 the last time we went)
Free Parking (you don't have to pay and get reimbursed anymore, you just drive in)
Just thought some of you want a change in scene from bars/restaurants as I think this is way better. and it sure beats watching it at home, imo. It's not as busy as the olympics either so you don't need to come hours earlier.
ps. If you come i'll probably be in either a Linden Jersey or a Mogilny Jersey
pps. there is an old guy who wears brown and wears a brown hat that hates the canucks... he'll get mad at you if you stand up... no real point in telling you guys this, but I just think it's funny.

I've watched some boxing and UFC events there before because a few girls I know are the ring card girls Edgewater hires for the events and its ok. I prefer the atmosphere and talent in a lounge/sports bar like Forum, Redcard or even Joeys more.
Everytime I've watched an event at Stadium Club, a lot of crowd seems to be fairly older, like 50+ lol.

there were only about 30-40 people the last time i went though...
so the atmosphere in regards to people are lacking. but, my friends and I still enjoyed ourselves.

I would love to get the black skate jersey but it's really expensive...
-------
on the top there are lounge seating with tables
right below are the movie theatre style seats.
first row are loungy couches kinda of. then in front of that is the walking floor
then the stage, then the screens.
i'm going to the game tonight there, so i'll take some pictures and post them so you can get an idea.
