Wojo's hack job included a swipe at the Hive. I don't know if they do or not.

I mean, it is not brand new and sparkling and shite...but I think it is a nice middle of the road NBA arena
Probably lacks in the luxury categories, though

No. And its getting an upgrade...so he's wrong

I don't think it's that terrible, but it's the only one I've been to. From the outside, it's kind of ugly though

Its not a bad arena--could it be improved absolutely and that is why the State is giving significant money to upgrade the entire facility. The outside appearance from the interstate leaves a lot to be desired and the concessions went down hill fast with Shinn at the helm.

Compared to other teams, the Arena is fine.
It's our practice facility (Alario Center in Westwego) that is complete and utter shite and needs to be replaced.

It should be better than what it is, but it is not cause shinn sucked as an owner and did nothing to improve anything

wouldn't say bad but definitely not an upper tier arena. Hopefully improvements go a long ways but the arena is about par and gets the job done and has the luxury of being tied into the dome/champions square area and the whole city of new orleans is fantastic as long as one isn't getting mugged or shot.

Here comes Tom Benson now, whose NFL organization is mired in one of the great institutional scandals in pro sports history, walking into New York for the draft lottery with a bad team, in a bad arena, and leaving with a franchise star.

I also read that Chris Mannix of SI was on the Dan Patrick Show this morning and he also called it a bad arena. Lol.

It's a decent arena. I've always had issues with the relatively plain-featured outside but the inside is far from a "bad arena".
Comparing it to the new KFC Yum! Center here in Louisville I'd say the interior is roughly on par with it. The exterior is sub-par but who really cares.

RC Cola was good luck for me at Hornets games.

Chris Mannix called it a "terrible arena" on DP this morning as well.

A bad arena is one that people avoid games because of the arena.
A great arena is one that people go to games because of the arena.
I think New Orleans has a good arena, which is what it should have.

Average arena. Still say they should have just made it look like a baby dome on the outside.
