Chicago Sky New York Sport reviews
Chicago Sky = Great Entertainment
This was the second game I attended this season. It is disappointing that this team doesn't get more support as they play great basketball and the overall experience is great. Ticket prices are very reasonable. Allstate Arena is a convenient location and because of relatively small attendance parking was not a problem and we were out of the lot 15-minutes after the game. The Sky people do a very nice job of entertaining the crowd during timeouts and at halftime. There are giveaways. Programs are free and souvenirs are reasonably priced. There are many restaurants in the area, so you can make a nice evening of it. These players are not high priced spoiled athletes. They make anywhere from $35,000 to a max of $100,000 a year and they play a great brand of team basketball. So go out to eat, take in the game, maybe get a drink afterwards. It makes for a fun evening.
Club seating gone wrong!
I parked in the garage that connected us right to the Wintrust Arena which was a plus because it was raining so we never got wet. We got inside the arena within 5 minutes. I purchased tickets for Section 109 for my daughters and I, which were perfect for seeing the court and included food and drinks, however we had to buy food and drinks because the person standing at Section 109 would not allow me to talk and tell her that was the Section I’m supposed to be in. She kept interrupting me and telling me we couldn’t get to concessions through that Section and that we had to go to Section 115 for food. So we followed her directions and after standing in a long line, I was annoyed and didn’t want to risk my daughters not getting food since the person guarding our section wouldn’t allow us in and made us go buy food, they were already starving by then, so I ended just buying our food and beverages. By the time we talked all the way back to Section 109 to be seated, the same woman approached us again telling us we can’t come through that Section and would need go to our Section to be seated so annoyingly I told her that I paid for Section 109 and was unsure of how to get to it. That’s when she says “oh I didn’t realize you “belong” in this section plus food and beverages are included in this section “. So I responded “that’s what I was trying to tell you but you shooed us away to go buy our own food”! It was just unreal, a lack in judgment on her part and total lack in communication and listen skills. They apologized profusely but the damage was already done. We were finally able to sit in our section, eat our paid-for food and enjoy the game. Everything wouldn’t been perfect had I got to enjoy one of the major perks of paying extra for club seating which was the food and beverages included but I didn’t get to and that sucked!
