Fifth Third Arena Renovation

[justinhub2003]

Everyone who has reservations about us going to BB&T arena.... Just go to ONE game there.


You'll change your mind.


This arena gets loud even when NKU has just 1500 people their. Imagine filled to brim?

I can't wait because the views are just amazing

I like that the fan experience and homecourt advantage factor was the reason for the choice.

Lol I'm glad they realized the fans don't want to drink RC, or Diet Rite, or whatever the hell that company offers.

Just think, a team will fly in stay in covington play at NKU fly out and never step foot in Ohio. LOL

Well we are going to have a great team next year. This could be good for broadening our fan base into Kentucky. With a good team playing across the river we may get some of the young fans to start following the Bearcats. We aren't going to switch diehard UK fans but it might turn out to be a positive.

I am just pumped that we will get to watch UC in a good arena next year. I have pretty much given up attending anything as US Bank because the place is just such a dump. Dollar beer nights for a minor league hockey team pretty much encapsulate the entirety of that piece of shit.

Kinda pumped that I read that season ticket holders get free parking

Didn't waste a breath, did they?

Someone with a company that supports suites needs to let me in to see the renovation from the best spot when it's done!

Kind of eerie. I'm excited that they're doing the renovation and all, but it's still sad to watch them tear down stuff that's been part of so many memories.

I agree but tear down the old to bring in new memories. Gotta think positive!

Love that they still have the old school tube TV's hanging up.

Well they would probably drive thru Ohio on way to the game if they stay in Covington

COMPLETELY DISAGREE. WHAT A TERRIBLE POST.

They will obviously drive through Newport and get on 471.

Seeing it empty like that just shows how bland and featureless the construction was. This is desperately needed and will be an infinitely better game experience when done. Just glad it's not my job to tear it down without the whole thing coming down!

I can't believe they are keeping the scoreboard.
