If you are watching a game here there are seats in the stands which are chilly, so dress warm. There are also some observation windows in the hallway above the rink which are warmer.

Id say 3 1/2 stars. Ill give 4 cause restaurant/ bar was open. Food was good & lots of beer choices on tap. Beer lines were clean and I would know.

While we were there most recently for a concert, I noticed that it was super hot in the concourse area and heard lots of people commenting on it. I felt bad for the employees as they were working hard and looked pretty warm. The concourse is quite narrow and congested with lines for concessions and different bars everywhere. The flow is not great and can feel very crowded, especially at hockey games. For the concert, they were requiring wristbands for those 21+ wishing to purchase alcohol, but the only spot I could see them being distributed was off the side immediately after going through security. No one told us that we needed to go over there until we were already in the line for drinks. There wasn't any order to getting wristbands, no one was in a line - it was just kind of chaotic. Once we finally got drinks (there was only one employee working to open everyone's drinks and pour them into cups), we made it to our seats which were great. I don't think there can be a bad seat in this arena since it's so small. The drink prices were very reasonable (and about half of what they charge at Van Andel). We also paid $10 (cash only) for parking, but they didn't really have anyone directing traffic in the parking lot. I think there are plans in the works to build a new stadium closer to downtown, so hopefully it will be a nicer experience!

We attended the MSU vs. Oregon Ducks Men's game in January. MSU won which always makes thr visit great! As far as the facility: - Accessibility Access and Friendly. Parking, Complimentary Wheelchair, and accessible seating. - Seating is about 15K - Bathrooms are clean but lines can get long. - I couldn't provide any info on the food or drink as I didn't get anything. The student section is always rocking. The cheerleaders were great! They continually hyped up the crowd and gave away shirts by tossing into the crowd. Go Green and Go White traditions get the crowd into it. Which was needed as Oregon was playing like their hair was on fires. But the game turned around and MSU ending up winning! The legend Tom Izzo ending up tying the Big Ten record for W's (352) and shared it with Bobby Knight. Overall, great venue, great staff and parking is easy.

I recently went back to Spartan Stadium for the first time in six years and it was fun being there…read moreagain. I love the atmosphere and being around so many fellow Spartans. As an alum I'm obviously biased, but I feel like the fans at Spartan Stadium are fun and respectful for the most part. That being said, the stadium itself has seen better days. It's a bit run down and crowded, and the signage/wayfinding is really terrible. We were wandering around forever trying to find our section, and it was tough to find anyone to ask. The security employees only said, "we don't work here, we just do security," which is fair, but we were frustrated. The section numbers and signage were confusing, but we finally found our seats. The ramps to get to the upper sections are steep, so be prepared for a bit of a workout. One big change from the last time I was at Spartan Stadium is that they now sell alcohol. Crazy! We bought a couple beers to celebrate this occasion. They were much more reasonably priced than I expected at $10-$12 per can. The crowds were not any more unruly than I remember, which I know was a concern with the addition of alcohol sales at the stadium. The seats are bleachers and not the most comfortable but our section wasn't packed, so we had some extra room. Section 109 was directly in the sun for the entire afternoon game, just something to note. It was HOT! Luckily we were able to move into a shaded section thanks to a friend who had extra tickets. If you're a Michigan State fan, I highly recommend trying to attend a game at Spartan Stadium. Go Green!
