Great area. 2 half hockey or 1 full one depending on event. Coffee is 1$. There is wifi. Password is by the coffeeshop on the left of the counter. They also have cool arcade games for 1$ such as bubble hockey and air hockey. Lot s of history, so make sure to visit the hall of fame to learn more about the history of lacross if interested.

This seems is so clean. The seats are great and you can see the whole rink from them. They also have heaters. Amazingly comfortable.
