Kind of out of the way to get doughnuts. OK to watch an event though. Providence Bruins? Good times. I actually used to run a Cub Scout troop and would have a yearly event there for the pack. One time one of my families left because there was too much fighting. Seriously? It's minor league hockey. It's all about fighting. Anyway, there is not a bad seat in the place. The concessions are a bit expensive but they are tasty. The doughboys are good and reasonable. The dipping dots not so much. What is up with dipping dots they are expensive EVERYWHERE! Acoustics are OK. Parking can be a challenge. I park in the mall and cross the hotel bridge to the convention center or is it the bridge to the hotel from the mall? I can't remember but you can park in the mall and cut through the hotel and convention center to get there. It's the way to go. Probably frowned upon by the mall though. Whatever. What am I missing. Box office is nice. It's been awhile but I think you save on convenience charges from the Mafia ticket agencies. Come on man $3 extra per ticket that I print out myself? Gangsters. Buy your tickets there! Alcohol! They got it. Not cheap though. I've never been up it the area up top on the end but it looks nice. All in all it's a good time every time I go to the Dunk!
