PBR rodeo was a good time. Seat maps could have been a little better detailed, our original seats when we purchased them were right behind the pen full of bulls. Would have been nice to know when we purchased them. Event staff allowed us to move to where we could see event arena area after event sta...

Love going to hockey games here. The food at the concession stands is decent, but if you don't like that they have a restaurant in the building. They have a great beer selection and you can even get wine and cocktails.

This is the best hockey in the area! We have a great team and will make the playoffs this year. We have been in the playoffs 4 out the last 5 years and we won the cup once. It's the next best thing to the NHL!

Terrible experience! Today there was a "game tonight" sign that had rolled across the street multiple times. On one of the occasions I had run out of my office to stop the sign from hitting a vehicle and the sign had ran over my leg in which I was bleeding. Called the office and staff were very rud...

Ok, the team is having a horrible year but that said First arena does all it can to still make this an enjoyable evening and it works! The all you can eat pack i definitely the way to go!

The side where the Elmira Enforcers play is nice. The concession stands only accept cash and the seats are s little small, but it's a fairly nice smaller arena. The rec side is OK. There isn't much seating for spectators and no heat.
Clean with great lighting and sound system.

There's just something walking into an ice rink... The smell of ice, the cool crisp air, the rush of the events, etc. However, the First Arena is extremely lacking. The whole building is nasty, smells bad and just generally looks dirty. I refuse to use the public bathrooms at the First Arena, due to...
Nice rink....great views

Had a great time at the Jackals game. Serves beer and wine and I think cocktails too. Saw like three fights and Jackals won all three. Refs didn't stop it till they locked or one was knocked on his hind end. it was awesome.

Family skate on Sunday is not well organized. Management does not seam to have a trained staff. There are safety concerns. The place is generally dirty and dingy.

Hockey game. Fire alarm was going off right up until the players were introduced. During the National Anthem some huge explosion scared the hell out of the crowd. Bad timing bad taste. Thank God no one near us has PTSD. I hope it gets better.
Great place

Exciting
Great facility.

DEFINITELY GONE WAY DOWN HILL !! I m pretty sure they don t even have a professional hockey team anymore or any team for that matter? SUPER DISAPPOINTING CONSIDERING THE MONEY AND TIME PUT INTO IT!!

Nice arena. Great environment for a minor league hockey game. I have watched the Jackals several times and have yet to be disappointed.

The game was awesome, the Enforcers won in overtime, however the place smelled terrible. The crowd was pretty toxic as well. When we weren't smelling body odor and urine, we smelled cigarettes. This is definitely not a place to take little ones. Only reason for 2 stars is cause the team was awesome ...
Nice staff and a good hockey team

This is a nice facility. Please take cash with you however. The concession stands do not accept plastic and the atm charges 4 dollars. Other than this concern, you will have a good experience at First Arena.
No good parking
always has something happening

We had a blast tonight at the arena, it was veterans night. They brought a humvee out on the ice for the opening ceremony. Also the Corning painted post band played. They did an excellent job and really jumped up the evening. The bonus was that the Enforcers actually won, yeah.
Had a awesome time

Ever since the Jackals have left, they are just letting go of taking care of the arena. They are just letting it rot. It is a shame that Chemung County doesn't really care if nothing goes into the arena. Now it is just a big waste that is just sitting there on North Main street taking up space hardl...
