Hey South Florida, did you know that you can get tickets to a professional sports game in this town…read morethat don't cost an arm and a leg? I know, it's not Heat, Dolphins, Marlins, or even Panthers. It's the Florida Launch, South Florida's own professional lacrosse team. Playing eight home games a season at FAU in Boca, tickets can be well below twenty dollars a piece. Not familiar with lacrosse? In many ways it is the oldest and newest sport around. Lacrosse was played by Native American Iroquois in the Northeastern United States. At the same time it is one of the fastest growing sports in the United States right now, especially in youth athletics. It seems that every new person I meet has their kid in lacrosse! I think you have to actually watch a lacrosse game to appreciate it. The kids love it because they get to pass the ball with big sticks. It has elements of soccer and hockey. It is fast and physical, usually with more scoring than hockey and baseball. The Launch, started by Casey Powell, one of the best lacrosse players ever, had their inaugural season in 2014. The crowds have definitely increased this year, although I can't say they are filling half of lower bowl at the FAU stadium. It is a fun family event for the kids and anyone who lives or is interested in the game. I am always impressed that the the players always take lots of time to sign autographs after the games. Sometimes they can be there for an hour signing the kids' balls, hats, shirts, and even sticks! It certainly makes the kids even more enthusiastic about coming to the games and gives the whole experience a true hometown, warm, "feel good" experience. Perhaps some of our other professional sports teams could learn from that! The Launch has done a better job of marketing this year with ticket packages and youth clinics. Believe it or not you can check out their games and other MLL games on ESPN! If you like what you see, you may want to come and check out a game in person. There are two more games left for the season...and then there is always next year!

Watching Florida Panthers at the Amerant Arena is an awesome experience. We do not have season…read moretickets although the best method to grab cheap tickets is to wait for season ticket holders to place their tickets on Seat Geek the night before the game. Lower level seats at the sides of the goal can be snagged for $65.00 + fees. If you are on a budget and dont want to pay $30.00 for parking at the arena, simply pre-game in the parking lot across the street for free have a couple beers and walk over. The beers in the arena will burn a hole through your wallet at $18.00 each plus tip. My wife and I attend four games per year and have a blast while never breaking a sweat.

Great franchise, great championship team, great family atmosphere at the stadium…read more Can't wait to take my kids to watch the games again in their new stadium.

Went to the opening game of Inter Miami at Nu Stadium. My only…read moreComplaint was parking. I needed handicap parking which they had, however it was a hike to the stadium! No signs for elevators either. I won't be able to go back.

Even though this is the place to see the players practice, there is not much more to do... This…read moreSaturday, the heat just beat the moment... Watching them practice only to have 5 (at 3:15) minutes of want to get your autograph and have most of the team not come... Well.. For me it is been there doene that! Would not recommend to others. In my opinion, they should have some players walk with the "fans" for a couple of minutes during practice just to make it worth while for us fans... The cheerleader table was quite nice... Cheers

Summer. Ever since I was in middle school, that word always meant no school & Dolphins Training…read moreCamp. I've consistently attended camp before they closed off the near parking garage for students; before the practice bubble; before the covered VIP bleachers; waaaay before Stephen Ross; toward the end of the Don Shula era On my most recent visit, I felt inclined to express how different the experience has become. Long gone are the days of a welcoming training camp; when I used to park right next to the practice fields. This event used to be open admission. Granted, we don't have to pay for tickets, but it's more of a hassle now. The practice bubble. Oh God, the practice bubble. A light sun shower started to come down & the team went inside for a "5min cooling break." A cooling break?! Give me a break! I get that the NFLPA is much more active nowadays & may perhaps have something to do with it. But damn. The pansification of football extends to the training camp experience. Two-a-day practices used to be open to the public. The media is now covering from the stands. Blocking spectators from their views. What the hell is that about?! They used to be confined to the one maybe two towers on field. Where are these fools coming from? Ugh. Despite all this, I will still come out & support my team when I can. But damn. I can't really say the changes have been for the better when it comes to the training camp experience.

They impressed me so much that I cursed the Seven Mile Stretch, a commute that barred me from trying out myself. I have found a different sport by now, but I'm happy to see that Miami Fury is still active and growing. It's a great opportunity for women.

Go Fins! Most fans…read morein South Florida love the Miami Dolphins but sadly only when they are on a winning streak, which unfortunately is much less of the time. I never had season tickets to the games but always accept last minute free tickets from friends. The pre-paid parking passes are like gold and almost as costly. The Hard Rock Stadium is a cool name but most of my experiences here were during the Joe Robbie Stadium banner. Fun times at the games where I only will splurge on a $20.00 can of domestic beer with an oversized salted pretzel. the atmosphere during the games are exhilarating whether up in the nosebleed section or down on the lower level fifty yard line. Guys, please at least get to the playoffs in 2026 - fingers crossed.

Miami Dolphins The Miami Dolphins are an American…read moreProfessional Football Team and the OLDEST professional sports team in Florida. Naturally since I grew up in South Florida I'm a fan. Their first season was the year I graduated from High School 1966! I've attended games at both the original stadium and the Hard Rock Stadium. It's hard for me to be a fan of any other Professional Football Team because my Father was a Dolphin's fan and my Uncle is still a huge fan. I might add that my daughter follows in their footsteps. I get a kick out of seeing her in her Dolphins Jersey. She may have a Dolphins Football Jersey but I have my Sterling Silver Ring!!
