Came here for a game last weekend and really enjoyed our time...my only shaving of one star was for…read morethe inside stadium concessions. The wait times were a little ridiculous 30-45 mins for a beer or some food. Luckily for us we tailgated before hand so we weren't dependent on the food but I did wait 30 mins for a beer and missed an entire quarter. Outside of that great venue and super friendly employees that were working there. Had a great time tailgating and was super easy to get in and out. Had great seats and had the opportunity to watch a great game. Love the student enthusiasm and cheer section was fun to watch. Over great experience and hoping they get the concession part fixed.

I mean, how do you give a review for a f'n stadium? Hahahaha!…read more Um, this stadium is cool. This stadium is big. This stadium has blue turf...what the? This stadium looks like many others. This stadium...is well, a stadium. Hahaha! Ok seriously now. I went for the Garth Brooks concert, the ONE....on Friday evening with Blake Shelton. I was part of 43000 people who took part in the official.....first big concert on the famous....blue turf! I was supposed to go with a friend....who incredibly BAILED ON ME....THREEEEE HOURS BEFORE THE SHOW! Did she pay me for the ticket? Nope! I got hustled like a m'fer. I had section 26. I ended up trading the ticket for row 4, on da flo, right by the stage. I could literally see the sweat on Garth lol. Am I still bitter that this friend bailed on me with no time to find someone else? Am I bitter that she will never pay me for the ticket when I was promised she would go AND pay? I'm BITTER AF! hahahaha! Does that take away from the amazing experience I had at this stadium? At this concert? Now why would I wanna waste energy being bitter especially while at the show...even tho I sat there, by my lonesome lol. To give you an idea how amazing this concert was....ima tell you a "short story" ....we all know, I can never say "this gon be short" and have it be that way lol. Yurrs ago, I worked/ran a music store in Phx. We got concert tickets to anything and everything basically. Growing up, I told myself I would go to as many concerts as I could. I wanted that life experience and I wanted to see my favorite bands (ima 90s kid) from when I was a youngin and I wanted to see classic bands/artists....as many as I could. I also wanted bragging rights if ima be honest lol. Smashing Pumpkins, Pearl Jam, LIVE, Bush, Tori Amos, Madonna, Barbra Streisand, Simon and Garfunkel, DMB, U2, Nsync, Backstreet Boys, Fleetwood Mac, Stevie Nicks, Janet Jackson, Crosby, Stills, Nash, Young, Tina Turner, and many many others, I have seen. Am I bragging? Maybe a lil bit, haha! Simon and Garfunkel, I have been a fan since I was 3 yrs old. No lie. Mama told me I was instantly obsessed with them at that young age. When I saw them, I literally cried when the light came on and there they were. NEVER thought I'd ever see these LEGENDSSS! Garth rose up from the stage. I couldn't believe it; couldn't believe I was FINALLY seeing him after almost 30 yrs of wanting to see him. Am I comparing the greatness of S&G with Garth? Hell no! Both have their own special magic. I have a list of artists I've seen, a special list. Meaning, they can't be put in a regular list of great concerts I've seen because they were too amazing to do that. Like, no words can TRULY describe the unbelievable experience I had at these particular shows. S&G is right there on that special list and now, so is Garth. Crazy Babs, she's up there as well. Oddly, so is Gaga, Madonna, and a few others. Gaga and Madonna shows from years ago. Currently, I wouldn't go to Madonna. Too political and her new music is boo. Albertsons Stadium, did a great job at bringing this unbelievable experience for all who went. I've never experienced a show like the Garth Brooks show. Afterwards, I get home, roommate says "how was it" I was so overwhelmed with emotions, I couldn't speak. For real. I'm that pathetic hahaha! I feel music, concerts in a special way and Garth had that effect on me. I will NEVER forget this concert. I am still thinking about it and it was 2 weeks ago. The show started 2 hours late, not sure why. The power went out briefly, no idea why. Garth had the crowd in the palm of his hand. That's another thing. I've been to some pretty huge shows. Most crowds would be PISSED about the power outage. Not this crowd. Stayed happy and fun the entire time. Seeing 43000 people get along for 5 hours was truly a sight. Seeing them all sing his classics...again, got me all emotional. I'm telling you, this was beyond special! Ima run out of room, I better end this lol. Thank you, BSU for making a long time dream of mine...finally come true.

We totally enjoyed our first concert at the Ford Idaho Center! Hubs' favorite group, the Goo Goo…read moreDolls, was performing, so we couldn't pass up the opportunity to see them live. The venue was clean and, pleasantly, did NOT smell like marijuana like so many of the concerts we attended in California. That was definitely a nice surprise! We came with another couple and made it a double-date night, which made the experience even more enjoyable. Parking was easy and plentiful, so I'm glad we didn't spend the extra money on VIP parking. There were several drink booths set up before entering the venue--some with alcohol and some without, so choose wisely! We had dinner before arriving, so we didn't get a chance to try any of the food options. Overall, we had such a great time and are already looking forward to our next concert here!

We had a great time. It was a lot of people and the stuff was very pricey. Let's make sure you…read morerealize it's gonna be a couple hundred dollars you're gonna spend that besides the tickets if you want to really enjoy yourself and then I was also overcharged. I was double charged after the places already closed. I got another charge on my account. I had to call and dispute it for my bank. It was kind of a hassle so I don't know I would use cash if you could here. That would be my advice use cash not give them your card info. And then as far as the parking is kind of crazy when you're trying to leave, I recommend leaving early or taking and expected an hour. Wait to get out of the parking lot.

Good location and the concert featuring Zach Top was tremendous last week…read more We were in Salt Lake City seeing Zach at the Amphitheatre, and this was 100% different. The show as the same, but the vibe is totally different. There is little checking of bags, and the crowd is obviously Boise State students...much younger. It is an older area and the acoustics made it difficult listening to the music. The crowd was much more spirited and lively, but many left too early?? I enjoyed the show and setting.

The food at the Arid club continues to improve constantly. Their focus on providing high quality,…read moreinteresting food is the highlight of the club. There is an exceptional wine and alcohol selection that makes this an all around exceptional choice for either lunch or dinner. This is the place to take business acquaintances for a casual lunch or to take prospects to close a deal. The atmosphere is inviting and the staff is the crown jewel. Club night is not to be missed if you can score an invitation. This is the best Easter brunch in Boise hands down. I just wish they had brunch a little more often. The steaks here are the best in Boise. If you get a chance to dine at the Arid club, take it, you'll be very happy you did!

Restrooms were clean at this time and the popcorn was freshly popped! They offer many different popcorn containers with characters and swag. Parking is ample with ADA spots right out front. It appears this particular shopping center, called the Boise Spectrum Center is trying to refresh their look. Many of the previous tenants I remember have come and gone but hopefully there will be new eateries occupying the vacant spots.

General admission is CHEAP, but the seats are in the sun the majority of the game. And are bleacher seats. Walk around the entire stadium to check out all of the food options. Seems to be something slightly different at each place. Some of the concession workers were nice, others were not. Ushers in the stands were great!

My wife and I have only been in the Treasure Valley for a little over a year. Our neighbor and…read morefriend invited us to a Hawk game and now we've been to two with them. PROS: It's a small, I believe 3500 seat stadium, so you're up close and personal to the players and game. Only seats down first and third, and behind the plate. Concessions are nice, with places to get food, apparel, and beer. I'm partial to IPA beer, so I go to the artificial grassy area near right field, where the bartenders always seem nice. Prices are reasonable. The seats are reasonably comfortable. Tickets are very affordable. Family oriented, and we've seen little league teams and young folks having a good time. Parking is free. CONS: The parking lot is not paved or marked. I highly advise you to park far enough away from the park so as not to have your car damaged by a foul ball. Pavement inside the park is uneven. Restrooms are not nice or particularly clean. In summary, I've enjoyed my time at Memorial Stadium for the two Hawk games I've attended.

The arena for a minor league area is top notch....modern and centrally located among restaurants downtown with plenty of parking. 2. The hockey is exciting, lots of scoring and action. 3. Prices are very reasonable. Now the down side ..... 1. Among all the professional sports teams I've viewed the Steelheads are the worst communicators ever! Billboards all over town advertising promotions no longer available, very few promotional days/deals. 2. When you call either the Steelheads no one answers the phone, ditto with the arena. Use the web site you say but...... 3. Maybe the most un-navigable web site ever. Not very clear, slow with a lot of pages that are empty. 4. Ways to purchase tickets. You can't get them in person, only on the net. The problem is that the process is very slow, not very clear and for all that aggravation they charge you a service fee to send the tickets to me electronically......really? In short the Steelheads are not very customer friendly. The games are reasonably priced but be prepared to do a lot of work.
