You can tell they aren't there simply because they want to tailgate. These people love the ice arena. Although I won't be here to see it, I know the new arena will be a success. However, I do have a few suggestions. The new arena will use the existing parking lot to save on costs, but more parking is needed.
Cars line the road leading to the arena, and they usually get ticketed.
And lastly, the student section needs to be located closer to the concession stands or vice versa. So students can get to the beer easier. It would only help the arena because the beer is so pricey. Support the ice arena. If you haven't been there, go and see what it's like.
