ELynah Forum

Thanks for the feedback and I made some tweaks based on some of the responses.

The whole diminished atmosphere aspect is an unfortunate theme I've seen in several places, mostly due to the common reasons that have been stated. The only place I've been in that the crowd/band gave me goosebumps (and it wasn't a big game) was a VCU Basketball game at the Siegel Center.

I'm sure for long-time fans, it is frustrating and I can empathize as a Sabres fan as that building is too often a library (even when they don't suck). However, Lynah was a fun place to watch a game and it's still a better setting than many others in the NCAA and ECAC, even in spite of comfort level in watching the game.

Hey everyone...I have a passion for sports travel and visiting various arenas and stadiums around the country. They are reviewed on my website and I just got back from a trip to Ithaca, having gone to a hockey game last Saturday. It's tough to get all the nuances of an arena and an average feel for a crowd in just one visit, so I'm curious from those that are familiar with Lynah Rink on what your overall thoughts are about it and the general experience. I know this probably is a hot-button topic, so I hope no nerves are struck as my perspective is from an outsider's look at the experience. Thanks!
