    Great venue but odd rules so watch out before attending
    Great venue and a fun evening had watching the Orlando Magic play against the Houston Rockets NBA is far from what it was in the 90’s unfortunately, but it is what it is and the venue was still great. However the limit on bags being allowed in was really weird, the size of my partners was possible 1 cm or 2 over the image and the security sent us away to put it in the car. Based on this we had to re-queue up, but what if people had arrived by cab or similar? Very odd and very strange process and size limit imo which I don’t agree is right and I never had anything like that at other NBA venues

    Great Arena for Hockey and Basketball
    We visited one night to see the Orlando Solar Bears, ECHL Hockey, and the next night to see the Orlando Magic, NBA Basketball, and found the Arena to be great. Wide concourses and easy to access seating and bathrooms (no lines). We parked on nearby West Jackson St. where the locals escort you to and from a nice parking spot in the neighborhood there and they watch over your car like it was theirs. The parking is a bit less expensive on Jackson but the time it takes to get headed home reduced significantly from the nearby Geico Garage.
