    Great Game

    by Welland 08 on 2023-06-16Meridian Centre - St Catharines

    I Enjoyed the game and the Atmosphere. The game was fast pace and fun . The give away promotions were very good as well . Seating was clise to the action . The music played even when the ball was in play i found a little distracting and the clock turned off with about 3 minutes left in the 4th period and they played first team to 100 wins . Which was interesting to say the least. Overall it was a great time . My date enjoyed the game as well ill definitely go back . If you're looking for a fun and entertaining night i recommend the River Lions Games !!

    Pretty good

    by Karch on 2023-06-06Meridian Centre - St Catharines

    Game was good. DJ playing music throughout game play was not good. In between sure but not when the action is on. Cheerleaders were dancing in the dark nobody could even see them. Missed the air balloon as it stayed in only one area. Cheerleaders can’t throw worth beans so lots of people on higher levels missed out on tshirt giveaway opportunities. Ouse makers etc were good and the bracelets were neat. Fireworks were a nice touch. I wanted to buy merchandise but didn’t like anything. Found the quality went way down! First couple years when the team started had better quality sports shirts, hoodies etc. Now just cotton and bad graphics. Bring back the quality like in the beginning. I walked out disappointed. I even went o line after the game and it was the same garbage.

    Amazing energy from players & fans & an excellent venue

    by Dee on 2023-06-06Meridian Centre - St Catharines

    Saw my fist game last year… attended a few more games and the experiences were all fun! This resulted in my purchasing a package of 6 tickets for this year and so happy I did! Attended the opening game this past weekend and was NOT disappointed. The River Lions played well and handedly won! The energy and fun was amazing!

    Amazing

    by Michelyn on 2019-07-29Meridian Centre - St Catharines

    My son is a huge fan of basketball. To see the excitement on his face when I had the chance to bring him to a live game, that was definitely affordable, was absolutely priceless! The Riverlions play a great game of basketball with lots of excitement all around

    Attended Hoop but Concert Prevailed

    by Baller on 2019-06-29Meridian Centre - St Catharines

    The game was fine but the experience was not pleasurable since music was played during all play except during free throws. If I wanted to go to a concert I would have.

    Interesting to see the professional players, we had fun especially when they did the slam dunk. Good venue and fun autograph session afterwards.
