The Nutcracker Peace Concert Hall At The Peace Center - SC Theatre reviews
Hockey or Ice Dancing
The Arena is extremely nice, however the seats are empty because the home team doesn't really attract enough spectators. People were blaming the fact that Booth and Dvorak were not on the lineup, but it was more than that - poor Hockey skills and not really the conviction from the players itself to see that winning is a must if you want to bring people to watch you. The game play made a "Home" Supporter extremely frustrated. An NHL event is always something exciting, nonetheless we are talking about NHL Hockey, but when it comes to SW Florida this not only combines Sports but Frustration. The atmosphere therefore is not the same as watching a Boston, Rangers, or Chicago game at their home arena.
