It was awesome.. been a basketball fanatic since i was a kid and loved playing basketball.. came here to canada 16 years ago.. good thing we have here now in Winnipeg.. #SeaBears
Going to a Seabears game is a fun experience. Lots of action and good basketball. Contests in the concourse, giveaways all make for a fun time.
It’s a great experience from start to finish! Our family had a great time!
Well, I was told I would have a great time, and I absolutely did. From start to finish the experience was amazing. Maestro Fresh-Wes pre game and at half was so good! Such an energetic entertainer. The footlong hotdogs are ridiculously delicious, I strongly suggest the chili cheese! The Caesars are soooooooo good! We got a free gift on our seats (a sea bears cheer towel) oh! Speaking of cheer, the cheerleaders were BOMB! Churchill bear or…C-Bear was so great at hyping the crowd! The announcers were captivating, the fan cam, watching the catered tables, seeing the pre-game video. EVERYTHING! I am still in awe that this is something we can experience in Winnipeg. My first major sporting event and while I was explained how it would be, my first time was more than I could have ever imagined or anticipated. Looking forward to making it to as many more games as we possibly can.
Not able to be heard above the entertainment that played for the entire time before game began. I like that time to hear my grandson’s opinions and observations and connect. It was so loud we both wished we had hearing aides we could shut off. During the game the loud excitement of the crowd made us want to join that. The game itself was exciting and we were fully invested and involved. So glad the Sea Bears won and secured a playoff birth. I was happy that tickets opened up on the third level so we could sit mid court rather than having to sit in end seats.
Great experience and very exciting game. I would certainly come to more games next season.
Great entertainment for the ticket price! I will definitely go again!
The sea bears continue to knock it out of the park with a fun atmosphere. Win or lose it’s a party. They’re tickets are also very affordable to take the family for a night out.
Had a blast at the Seabears final home game! Great crowd, fun to watch the Bears come back for the win! Great team, great game!
Fun game, great energy, lots of side entertainment happening. Will go again
