Came to Phoenix (Glendale) alllllll the way from San Jose to watch the Sharks play here. \n\n1st off I want to say that the entire center known as \"Westgate\" was AMAZING!! I have never seen such a sports plaza and was impressed thru and thru. Arizonians should be very proud of that set up. Although San Jose's HP Pavilion is 2 times as big as Jobing.com arena, San Jose cant even hold candle to what surrounds the Glendale Arena. I LOVED that Fox Sports Net Arizona was broadcasting live in the plaza before and after the game. San Jose NEVER does that. From bars, to restaurants, to shopping, to waterfalls, to jumbo-trons, to a 25' inflatable hockey player... AMAZING. \n\n2nd, the Coyote fans were wonderful and very tactful. As much as I hear that Coyotes don't have much of a following, their arena was sold out. Probably about 20% Shark fans, but sold out none the less. Now, if the Coyotes would have won that night, perhaps the ghettoness of their fans may have came out, but they didn't, so I probably will never know how hardcore those fans are. \n\n3rd, the jobing.com arena is small. Long line for refreshments. You cant get back to your seat in between periods in time. Just so you know. \n\nAnyway, so yes. Arizonians be proud. Embrace hockey. Its a great game and a great time out with friends and family. \n\nSidenote: \n- I was on FSN Arizona waving the Sharks flag. I have a pic taken off the tv that my cousin took. haha. \n- I can understand why San Jose doesn't have such a beautiful plaza like Glendale does. 1) bums would live there and f*ck it up 2) gang bangers would bang there and f*uck it up and 3) we simply dont have the land or space and thats f*cked up.........
