Too big. Seats are too steep, spooks me out. Too much seperation in the bathroom, miss the trough style. Horn is fake n digital. And the pretzels make me thirsty. 1 GMRwings1983 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Never in a million years will i miss the troughs, And i only attended 3 games at the Joe in my entire lifetime. Can't wait to visit LCA it's by far the best arena so far in the nation. 1 Holmstrom96 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChristopherReevesLegs 7,022 Report post Posted October 20, 2017 Ya know how people salvaged the seats from the Joe as souvenirs? Somewhere out there, there's a man with the troughs from the Joe in his home bathroom, and it's awesome 1 Keep Your Stick On the Ice reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

State of the art. No complaints whatsoever. Food is good. Pizza is actually cheap. $13 for a large. Usually stadium Pizza is $20 + for a large. We assumed it’s because the Pizza is the stadium owners product so it’s a “discount”. Can’t wait till they finish the “district” area entirely. Area still under construction. Should be fun. I was at the Pistons home opener few days ago. They did a good job with that too. Eminem, Big Sean, Kid Rock all showed up. Eminem made an epic “Welcome back Detroit” shoutout thing.

GMRwings1983 8,803 Report post Posted October 21, 2017 How does the lighting compare to the JLA? I remarked in the GDT last night that on TV, the JLA had the best lighting in the league. This arena looks darker on TV. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

matt198913 932 Report post Posted October 22, 2017 Love it, absolute palace. The pistons being there sort of takes away from them. Everything about the LCA screams hockey. Seats were comfy- walked around could see from anywhere. I never used to get up at all. Didn't want to miss the action. Wow this place does it for me.

Barrie 900 Report post Posted October 22, 2017 Watching games on TV, I don't like the organ. I was a big fan of the "Let's Go Wings" song at Joe Louis, but at LCA all I've heard is it played on the organ. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
