Detroit deserves a better hockey arena...I've seen over 500 games at the Joe, and about 30 other games in other NHL cities, and the Joe is really lacking in a number of areas...
1) Bathrooms...were they an afterthought by the architects?
2) Unispired concessions - That's a kind term but compared to other rinks, they suck. In Tampa, they have an Outback steakhouse stand! Yum!
3) No restaurants or places to eat - I mean, for god's sake, people have to eat off the trash cans at the Joe!
4) Underutilization of the riverfront - What the hell were they thinking when they built this thing?
