So many things to love about this venue. Pedestrian…read morefriendly. Near many restaurants and shops . Parking garage on site and across the street. Security is quick and efficient . Seating appears to have visibility in every direction. We attended our daughter's high school graduation here and I was pleasantly surprised at the ease and efficiency of security and entrance. I was very disappointed by the lack of ushers once inside. Once I found one and confirmed how the seating worked, it became very apparent that it was first come first served. Because it was a graduation seating did matter because the stage was small and it was up against one side of the arena. The best seating was on the floor near the aisles or in the very front. Because it was floor seating visibility was difficult if you were seated several rows back. Fortunately, the screen projected the people on the stage so that solved some of the visibility issues. Overall people filtered into and out of the arena in an orderly fashion. Once outside, that courtyard was very congested. We made our way to the edges and had some breathing space. For very large schools of 400+ students this was a sound choice for graduation.

Great small venue for about 5000 people. Connected to the hotel lobby and a large outdoor public…read morearea on 8th street. This has had other sponsor names over the years. Some padded seats on one side of the arena. Very steep sides, not a lot of foot space between seats. Fabulous for watching hockey.

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.

It was a cool, little minor league venue. The stadium is apparently at the fairgrounds, and it does show on the periphery, but the field, seating, and the concourse in general is fine. Food and drinks were very reasonably priced. And the Hawk Nachos are one of the best nachos I've ever had. The only real complaint I could give is that they played, "everybody clap your hands" constantly. It was bad enough just as is, but even worse in a 23-5 (or something like that) blowout.

Especially love the 80's memorabilia as we were both products of that generation. Plus on our last visit the staff was cranking out some great 80's tunes. Found ourselves singing along for most of them. Wine is great here and they make everything in house. We love a small boutique winery like this and reminds us of where we have another house in Lodi, California. That region is filled with small batch, boutique wineries just like this. Our favorite while we like them all is for sure the Cabernet Sauvignon. Really full body wine that is super satisfying. This is a must stop while you're in the Boise area.
