Watching the Baby Caps

Washington Capitals Hockey


I went up to Hershey last week to catch a game with the Washington Capitals affiliate team, the Hershey Bears. First off, I must say that I was pleased to find that the Giant arena was a first rate facility situated in a real nice location. There's plenty of parking, and leaving after the game was relatively easy. The complex itself was top notch for a minor league affiliate. There was also plenty of concession stands with lots of unique merchandise and foods. The ticket price was also easy to take. We got seats about 10 rows from the ice for $22 each. The only drawbacks that come to mind is that the sound system could be a bit better, and the scoreboards are not situated in the best locations. But all in all, it was a nice experience, and provides an opportunity to see some of the future NHL hockey players and Washington Capitals at a bargain price.
