Last night, we took Jake and one of his friends to a Johnstown Generals game. The boys had a blast, as they always do. I’m not sure of Brian’s opinion of the game, but I was a little underwhelmed. It was not as polished as I was expecting and the play was not quite on par as compared to something like ECHL hockey.
The War Memorial was maybe 1/4 full. The boys wanted to change seats so we let them go over to the end zone area. No sooner did they get there and they were kicked out of their seats by the usher. It seems that tickets for the first four rows are more expensive than the rest so they don’t let you sit there unless you’ve paid to do so. Never mind that hardly any of the seats in the building were sold. It’s always been my experience that you can pretty much sit wherever you want at these kinds of events. But, if someone with a ticket shows up and you’re in their seat, you move. So, I thought that was a bit much, but maybe that’s just me.
