text: For the ice hockey fans this is the ONLY temple of this great sport With around seats this is probably the biggest hockey arena in the NHL Believe it or not even if the price of the tickets are quite high it is sold out for every gamesnnEvery time I go watch a game at the Bell Center which is unfortunately only once a year at max I buy tickets in the red section in line with the faceoff line of the skating rink For me this is the best area to enjoy the shownnThe ambiance was just great during the game Here in Montreal the team has without any doubts the best fans They are also quite demanding but hey that is part of the game With the years many players said that they could feel quite a pressure when playing in Montreal The Fans will treat them like gods if they play well but they can be very nasty if the players do not perform like expectednnI bought once a ticket for a seat located on the very last row up next to the roof and I would never do it again The view was partly blocked by the press gallery and you could barely see the puck Still if you are stopping by Montreal on a game night and you have never been there buy a ticket even if it is up next to the roof You will still enjoy the eveningnnThe only reasons I have put stars instead of is due to the outrageous food prices I was shocked A trio which includes a beer a hot dog and a potato chips bag cost the crazy price of Canadian dollars This is simply a slap in the face of the fans who already paid good money for the seats I just do not get it it costs almost the same price to buy a tshirt Somehow the prices of the souvenirs seemed more reasonnable Oh and by the way there are many souvenirs shops in the arena if you want to buy the shirt of your favourite playernnAll in all I had a great evening the Montreal Canadiens won which was super great since it is my favourite teamnnTo note that the Bell Center is not only for hockey games Throught out the year there are many shows musics tournaments etc The Bell center is also quite well located Next to many restaurants bars and also close by busy shopping streets There is a subway station Lucien LAllier on the orange line right next to the Bell Center There is even a an enclosed corridor between the two which is quite convenient when it is deg C outside
