PCM Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 I was wondering if any Sioux fans familiar with the Xcel Energy Center would care to designate a meeting spot where we could congregate between periods or between games to discuss the games and other events. This would just be an informal designated area that we'd all know about if we cared to go there. Perhaps it would save time from hunting down each other's seats. So what's a good spot in the X? Quote
ftnsiouxhockey Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 Anywhere that has a beer stand near it. Quote
PCM Posted March 15, 2006 Author Posted March 15, 2006 Anywhere that has a beer stand near it. We're off to a good start! Quote
ftnsiouxhockey Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 It seems that it is about an equal number of us on both sides and so it seems logical to possibly meet on one of the ends. I would prefer the end that the Sioux defend twice. Quote
MafiaMan Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 I can't remember which entrance it's by, but this is right by a beer stand...there's a corner spot where all of the WCHA team jerseys are displayed on a wall. Pretty easy to find and again, right by a beer stand. I will NOT be wearing my "Hello...My Name Is" sticker, however. Just look for the bald head. Quote

Pretty easy to find and again, right by a beer stand. That is the SW corner of the arena off of where 7th and Kellogg Blvd meet. It just west of where the Main entrance is where the Ticket box office is. Also, this is the corner where most of the ticket scalpers/sellers/buyers/drunks/confused squirrel fans are. Quote
MafiaMan Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 I do that every time I look in the mirror. What am I doing in your mirror? Quote
PCM Posted March 15, 2006 Author Posted March 15, 2006 So we're saying that this is the designated Sioux fan meeting spot? Sounds good to me. Quote
ftnsiouxhockey Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 What am I doing in your mirror? Good question Quote
PCM Posted March 15, 2006 Author Posted March 15, 2006 What am I doing in your mirror? Well, I've met you, so I know it's not the "Who's the fairest of them all?" routine. Quote
ftnsiouxhockey Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 I'll be the bald guy wearing the green Sioux jersey!! Quote
PCM Posted March 15, 2006 Author Posted March 15, 2006 For the geographically impaired among us, where would the proposed Sioux fan meeting site be in relation to this seating chart? Quote
WildSioux Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 This is a better reference PCM... http://www.xcelenergycenter.com/seating/100level.jsp It is the SW entrance as I said above, so down by 106-108. And the Box Office is at the SE entrance by the Hockey Lodge<>Green box. And the WCHA Jersey wall is by that telephone by the Food and Beverage stand...beer Hope that helps Quote
Sioux Traveler Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 For the geographically impaired among us, where would the proposed Sioux fan meeting site be in relation to this seating chart? In front of the Hockey Lodge (the Wild Store, Jerseys etc+++) at South East Entrance #1, behind section 104. Quote
PCM Posted March 15, 2006 Author Posted March 15, 2006 Hope that helps Sure does. Thanks. I hope to see everyone there. Quote
Sioux Hockey Fanatic Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 The UND alumni office is hosting a fan party at Great Waters Brewery both Friday and Sat from 5-7:30. We could meet up there. Quote

DamStrait Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 The UND alumni office is hosting a fan party at Great Waters Brewery both Friday and Sat from 5-7:30. We could meet up there. I'll be there ~noon on Friday with my friends me and myself. Stop by to say hi & I'll buy you an adult beverage of your choice. Good food and great beer. I'll be wearing Sioux gear, but other than that, I'm pretty nondescript (no glasses, no facial hair, receding hairline, average height, above average weight). It'll be a good time to let my hair down little, as I'll probably be with my wife and kids the rest of the weekend (including the games). Quote
BigChief Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 Where is that at? No wife for the weekend, I need BEER! It is about 3 blocks from the Xcel on St. Peter Street. You can see a map here: http://www.greatwatersbc.com/hours.html Quote

I thought I'd find at least a few that would take me up on my offer. Maybe my reputation preceeds me - still, a FREE BEER - I'd almost be willing to stand anybody long enough to choke down a FREE BEER! Quote

I didn't know we had to RSVP. Any one going to pre-game tonight? I was thinking of hitting Tom Reids. Quote
