Instead for my nieces graduation from West Career & Technical Academy. Extremely tight security when entering from The Orleans. The facility is huge, lots more food and beverage food stands as you make your way inside the arena. Last minute flowers, lei and stuffed animals could be purchased from vendors. Spacious and extra clean restroom facilities, this stadium can hold 9,500 people and is owned and operated by Boyd Gaming. Free parking at The Orleans Hotel and Casino.

He took the time to tell us all about the upcoming game on Sunday, shared fun facts about the teams, players, and the arena, and made us even more excited for the experience. You can tell Jay truly loves the game, and that enthusiasm is contagious. On top of being incredibly knowledgeable, he was friendly, welcoming, and provided outstanding customer service. He's exactly the kind of person you hope to meet when visiting a hockey arena. Thanks for making our visit memorable, Jay--we'll definitely be back!

When it comes to food choices, there's your usual arena fare. While I didn't eat there because it was busy, there's a restaurant/sports bar right there where you can dine and watch other sports as well. The only thing that can be a challenge is the parking. I often find myself parking across the street. Otherwise, nice venue!

This park is well maintained with a great layout. Pretty comfortable seating by ballpark standards. As a smaller minor league stadium, there really is no bad view.

I've been a Summerlin resident for nearly five years and have driven past this ballpark probably a…read morethousand times, but this was my first event supporting the Aviators. The venue itself is beautiful, and you can easily walk a full lap of the lower level in about 10 minutes. Parking is in the lots behind the park--easy to navigate and free, which is a nice bonus. Just be aware that special or theme nights get extremely crowded. We went this past weekend for Harry Potter night, when they were giving away jerseys to the first 2,000 fans. Doors opened at 5:30 p.m. with first pitch at 7:00, and the lines were wrapped all the way around the building. Some people had been waiting since 4:00 p.m. or earlier. There's an express entry line at the front for anyone without bags or purses. A lot of items are prohibited, so it's worth reviewing the ballpark's policies online beforehand. One helpful tip: you can bring in a sealed plastic 33-oz water bottle and refill it with cold water from the soda fountains inside--a real lifesaver for both comfort and your wallet. This past weekend was a scorcher, with temperatures well over 105°. There wasn't much ventilation, and the fans and misters (where they existed) didn't do much to help. It felt like sitting in a metal box with an open roof, and the occasional breeze was light and hot at best. If they're going to host these events in the middle of summer, they really need better cooling solutions for the walkways and stands. The splash pad for kids was a nice touch and probably made the heat more bearable for the little ones. And if you're lucky enough to rent one of the suites with a pool, you can relax in the water while watching the game--I'm sure that was a much more pleasant experience. Food wise there are some decent options with a fair amount of variety, and I decided to go with the shredded chicken Nachos which come in a souvenir baseball hard hat. I'll be real, they sucked and I wouldn't get it again even if it was half the current $18 cost. I'm not a huge baseball fan, so this is likely a one and done for me.

I am a ongoing customer. Ive always been a theatre kid and watched excitedly as the Smith Center…read morewas built in high school. Having gone many times I feel like it could have been built better and more comfortable for humans. I feel like the top balcony is way too cramped and steep. There seem to be cushions you can ask to add to your seat but why didn't they just choose good chairs when building. I feel like all the connecting chairs are too close together. Multiple times have me or my spouse had to battle it out with a man spreader or person taking too much space. The arm rests with the combined seats are tiny so only one person can use it. I think they should redo it and give people more space. If a movie theater can give me recliners I expect at least comfortable chairs. We do watch a lot of the broadway musicals. I like when there are fun seasonal drinks attached. We did season tickets one time with the cheapest balcony seats and just upgraded every time. I loved the early access and how easy it was to upgrade and change our seats. When it came time to renew our season passes we wanted to upgrade our seats but I cancelled it because we didn't get to specifically choose the seats we would upgrade to. I also don't like that the minimum is usually like 7 shows. I would rather 4-5. I usually am really excited about maybe 2 shows a season. Having the season pass made us see shows we didn't love and made me realize I do not in fact love all musicals. Things I appreciate are the $6 parking, the customer service of employees, and the lobby and balcony are pretty. I think the programs are too wide and big. I love Smith Center in general but think there can be improvements.

We had seats in the second section, around row M. It's a great venue and I was happy with the seats. We all enjoyed ourselves. It was fun to see the place completely packed and true fans were standing up and enjoying every minute. That also added to the experience. Lots of fun. There is the typical bar with snack foods and popcorn. High prices but that's also typical. You will go through a security check. Small handbags are a good idea.

It was so clean, well themed, and the seats were comfortable, but a little tight. Not sure if this is the norm, but absolutely no one stood up in our section! I really missed that vibe since that is what I expect at a concert like this. I also found the way we exited to be a little chaotic. All those people walking down stairs and being dumped back into the casino caused some traffic. The drinks were also expensive, which is to be expected, but this was much more than I'm used to. I would see another show here, but if you want to dance, I would suggest buying the GA pit seats.

The seats aren't very comfortable and there isn't much leg room. We like parking in the garage more than in the big parking lot out front. All in all, it's a nice place to watch a game, especially when the Lady Rebels are playing so well

As noted on their site, "Vegas Unstripped is Las Vegas' only festival by chefs, about chefs, and for the Vegas community." This was my first time attending and I thoroughly enjoyed it! The weather was perfect, the venue was fitting (the Palms pool where the cabanas were transformed to "mini" chef stations), and the pool bars served up multiple different cocktail concoctions!! Zee highlights: 1. Unlimited food and drinks from amazing Vegas chefs!!! Everything was so good!!! I loved Bartender at Petite Boheme, Jonah Gibbs' Blueberry by the Bayou bourbon drink!!! My fave of the night! I also couldn't get enough of Chef Oulay Fisher's (Calabash Kitchen) Jollof Rice and Chef Alex Reznik's (Hayworth) Smoked Beef Tongue Agnolotti and Smoked Scallop! TSP Bakery by Kari Garcia was there, which I had been wanting to try TSP so it was perfect! Their crew was "poppin" with the popcorn theme and so nice! Loved the red vine mini cupakes!! I could go on and on, but DELICIOUS, CREATIVE, and DECADENT is what you need to know about the food! We left so full and so joyous! 2. Being able to meet the chefs and bartenders, and putting a face to the talent behind the amazing food/drinks! It was such a personal touch and way to support our amazing local chefs!!! 3. An organized and well planned event! At first, we were shocked by the long line that snaked its way through the casino floor (one line for general admission and another for VIP early entry). We had VIP tickets which allowed us entry 15 minutes sooner. The line moved fast and employees checked us in while we were waiting in line. There was entertainment (good volume where you could enjoy the music yet still hold conversations) and plenty of bottles of water at the bars, which was much appreciated. Zee lowlights: None - just wishing I had multiple stomachs! ;)

There's not many things to do in Vegas that are free anymore. It was a very nice thing for No Doubt to do for their fans. I know for a marketing standpoint it creates a buzz, sells a whole lot of merchandise and promotes their shows but it also lets the fans who couldn't go to the shows because of work schedule or finances still join in the festivities. Every single employee that I encountered was super accommodating and welcoming. With it being as busy as it was it is easy to feel overwhelmed when you are in a wheelchair. I didn't because of the employees. The only time that I felt lost was at the photo op with the No Doubt drum set. It was the biggest draw and I really wanted to do it because I am a drummer myself. The young lady at that area was the only one that gave me the keep moving and go to the end of the line spiel when I wanted to ask a question. The queue was awkward to get into and felt claustrophobic for me. I also didn't want to feel like I was going to run over people's toes. I don't know if it was made too narrow or if was moved because of the logistics of the hallway and flow of traffic. I ended up not getting that photo. Other than ending in a disappointing note, the rest of my visit was great. Thanks No Doubt and Venetian for a fun and one of a kind experience!
