College hockey games always have my heart! I went to UW-Madison for undergrad so I was excited to…read moresee what the 3M Arena had to offer and I was pleasantly surprised. The arena itself was the perfect size in my opinion. There isn't a spot without a great view, even from the top!! And of course, the concessions are the best part of any sports game but I think this arena definitely takes the cake for the best options. Swedish meatball bowls, Kemp's ice cream, Domino's, and many more goodies to snack on! This was honestly the most impressive part for me. One thing to note is that the arena is downtown, so parking will be inevitably tricky. We got an Uber just to save us from the hassle of finding a spot. I can't wait to go back! Mariucci is the epitome of a fun, college hockey night and camaraderie. Ski-U-mah!

Coolest arena anywhere as far as I'm concerned. It seems like I practically grew up here as my…read morefamily has had season tickets my whole life, and each game continues to be so memorable. I love the uniqueness of this place, the history, the stories people tell, and the fans! Tonight we cheered the gophers on against the badgers and it was a sold out crowd. A huge, overflowing student section and fans from ages 1 to 101. They have great concessions, including chickfila this year! And you can't miss the giant bowl of peppermint bon bon ice cream. Love popcorn? They have some of the best.

Since it's been awhile since I wrote a review on Williams Arena, I thought I'd give an update. My…read moremost recent visit was to watch a Women's Basketball game. We sat in the first row of the upper section (207) and they were amazing seats. Mid-court and high enough to see the plays develop but not too high so that the basketball does not look like a marble. We have been parking in the Washington Avenue Ramp of late and it's been a great place to easily get in and out from I94. I always enjoy watching games here. Fans are a bit rowdy. The atmosphere is full of energy. Plus the women won on a buzzer beater which was so exciting.

Very cool stadium! We were visiting as the away team from Nebraska so hard to beat but they are…read moreclose! It's cool how close the stadium is to the tailgate, food options. etc. You could walk anywhere, and it's directly on campus. It was pretty to walk around. The stadium itself contained every option you can think of for food and drink. I also thought the bathrooms were very well taken care of!

It's a typical stadium. The food is overpriced and the security lines were long. However, it's a…read morefun place to watch a football game ans the energy was electric. It's a fun place to at least check out if you're into sports.

I attended the Twin Cities in Motion Kids Indoor race at this venue. I found that parking in the…read moreUniversity Ramp made it very easy to get to. The venue is a bit older which adds charm to the venue. The entrance is a little hidden and hard to find if you are not familiar to it, but it is right off University, just not very well called out. The lobby does house a lot of athletes who have done significant things (championships, olympics, ect...). The main part of the venue has a nice sizeable track. There are stands for spectators which is not large but not tiny. For the event we were at it was definitely sufficient.

This ice arena was the first, and remains one of only a few, ice arena's dedicated to woman's hockey. The arena features seating for 3,400. Ridder Arena features and NHL sized ice surface and is next door to Mariucci Arena (home of the men's Gopher hockey team). The two buildings are connected via an underground access tunnel, which allows them to share ice resurfacing. The arrangement also allows the two Gopher hockey teams easy access to both NHL (Ridder Arena) and Olympic ice (Mariucci Arena), depending on their weekly opponent. Ridder Arena has concessions, merchandise, trophies and memorabilia areas. This arena is a gem.
