The Hockey was great, but...
by Hockeymom1996 on 2023-04-19CAA Centre - BramptonRating: 4 out of 5Great 2 weeks of hockey!! My main beef is that those who bought the full package were unable to resell tickets we couldn't use on Ticketmaster's site (how many of us could attend all 30+ games?) and demand was high for many games. This meant there were more empty seats than there should have been for many games. We gave away as many as we could but given they weren't e-tickets, we couldn't offer them to those that lived far away from us or post them last minute on 3rd party sites. Seems like a(nother) Ticketmaster cash grab. The lines to the concessions (and bathrooms) were way too long. The Centre should have increased staffing, set up pop-up booths, or even had in-seat sales.
Recommend non-glass water bottles be allowed to be brought in for these types of events. Finally, allowing fans to block numerous parking spots for their pre-game celebrations (e.g. near Gate 1) was unfair, especially given the abundance of green spaces nearby. But as I said, the hockey itself was great to watch.
