Review of Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins

My first time to the Arena.

My first time to the Arena.

Traffic to the event was horrific. There should have been some variable message signs to direct Traffic to the proper lanes.

Once in the parking lot there was again was confusion to where to go. I had to ask a security person as to why was I stopped in this particular lane for 10 minutes when there was other lanes open and moving. He replied I didn t have to be in that lane and to move into the other lane if I wanted.
In addition, parking was $10. I would have parked in the mall across the street and walked.

Once parked I was walking towards the arena and the lines were all over the place. I had to survey which line was legitimate and luckily I chose a good one.

Inside wasn t too bad. There were multiple entrances to enter but the hallways were not too wide for the amount of people.
I was on the main floor and I was only able to locate one emergency exit. Definitely not good enough for the amount of people attending.

There were plenty of security and attendants to help you find your seat.
Seating was very tight. You had to keep your arms crossed in order not to infringe on your neighbor

After the event exiting was slow. There could have been attendants helping direct people to exits. It took over 20 minutes just to get off the main floor.
