I don't have many issues with the arena, but one I do have is the stat sheet. I know they need to make money with their ads, but most other NBA arenas that I have been to has the player stats PERMANENTLY shown. I don't need to see the little dinosaur jumping up and down with "DE-FENSE" written below it. It's funny because the old high school scoreboard we used to have pre-Katrina always had the players on the court's stats up there with the video screen. Now they have TWO screens and just flash it every now and then.
Also, that software they have for the stats sucks. It crashes at least once a game
I have a feeling all of this is subject to change.

I am still not sure how the Champions Square integration will work. It really is kind of a long walk for most people. I'm 29 so it's not a big deal for me, but most people esp. coming from Girod or the "Metairie Superdome parking garage" are just not going to make that long walk.
From what I understood, it's not so much a continuous tie in from CS to the Arena entrance. It's more a matter of making the Arena entrance like CS.

When Benson first built CS he mentioned a residential tower. I wonder if that's still on the drawing board. Something needs to be done about the old Macy's (building over the tunnel). It's just rotting. I know this the economy may not support it but getting a shitton of residential living around that area can generate support for year-round bars and restaurants. I'm including turning the soon to be gone post office property into my residential neighborhood. in New England they are building "Patriot Place" which is a residential area next to Gillete Stadium.
Patience, grasshopper. It's coming. Seriously, though, all of the former mall is supposedly being redone.

Agree 100% with VOR's comment about patience, the mall, etc.
