For an 8pm game, you needed to show up at the Forum about about 5:30 and stand in line for an hour.
Then everyone would literally rush in for the best standing spots at center ice right above the reds.

I don't think there are any arenas left in the NHL that offer standing tickets are there?
I just can't justify dropping $70 per for our rent-a-kids who are not going to watch most of the game and be subjected the the philly crowd The phantoms games are oriented towards them, so they the do keep their interest much more.
