This is a sleek and modern facility that is more intimate than it looks like on TV. It's hard to believe it's over 30 years old. I think the best seats are about half way up from the court, but there really isn't a bad seat in the house. I think you'll be able to follow the action wherever you are. I like how the students get prime seating. Their section starts just off of half court and extends behind the South goal. They are young, full of fun, and are a huge part of the game day experience. Concessions are basic, but easy to find and access. Entering and exiting can take some time if it's a big crowd, but isn't overly difficult. If it's a popular event you might give yourself a little extra time. read more

Bramlage Coliseum is a great venue to watch college basketball. My first time, I came for National Girls and Women in Sport Day. It was a women's basketball game with all of the women's teams in booths around the concourse prior to the start of the game. I was also able to meet K-State's new soccer coach who is starting the program that will debut in Fall 2016. Last night I attended my first men's game, K-State's upset over KU. There really is not a bad seat in the house. The arena is relatively small, seating just over 12,500. That means there is only one true seating level though and not really any nosebleed seats or sections. I had excellent seats on the 12th row behind the basket, with seat backs. The crowd was ferocious, there is a lot of entertainment at the game between time-outs and at halftime, and the powercat pride was exciting. Parking is not terrible - $5 for women's games and $10 for men's games. We parked by the exit to the lot and got out pretty fast. Go cats! read more

Been to the football stadium more times then this coliseum (basketball court). It is a great updated place with decent size seats that if you get a one with the back pretty comfortable. Plenty of parking and easy to navigate haven't been there for a game so not sure about food taste or price. Though Bathrooms seem to always be clean and nice. This time I went during a graduation as you can clearly tell from pictures. read more

It's not Allen Fieldhouse, but it is still an exciting environment for a basketball game. I was impressed most by the sound system. At 12,500 seats there is not a bad view in the place. The jumbotron is easily viewable from any seat. Most of the seating in the building has been updated from bleachers to plastic seats, which makes for a more comfortable experience. Facility is well maintained. read more
