On to the good points. Love the wall climbing rock really cool for a recreation center to have. I think I might even give it a try if DeMo had one of these looks fun. Racquetball/handball, basketball courts, swimming pool with slides, and a huge weight room. Quite possibly the largest weight room I've ever seen. Everything was just semi clean, but I suppose so many people travel thru daily it's hard to keep up with all the cleaning necessary to keep it emasculate.

We attended a Bucs Hockey game and were pleased with the venue. Inside the arena they had only one…read moreconcession stand but there was another in the main entrance area as well as a vending machine. Prices for food was reasonable. Seating inside was pretty much what you would expect for a hockey arena but the seating was a little tight (might want to consider where you sit if you are more than an XL in size if comfort is something you are interested in. I'm a ladies L-XL and felt squished).

The last two times we have been here for youth hockey games and the food we purchased was cold. The…read morekids were super upset and when we asked for fresh food(actually warm chicken strips) they declined our request. I wish I would have had a thermometer because I'm willing to bet that chicken was way below the temps it should be held at in a warmer. Then I came to see my friend play men's league hockey any the stand was closed by 8. Lots of us wanting a drink and they didn't keep the stand open. Very poor experiences.

A Roughriders game is still one of the most fun things you can experience in Cedar Rapids (or the…read moreentire Corridor for that matter) during the winter months. If you've never seen a hockey game, or you're just looking for something different to do, I highly recommend visiting. I've always loved that CR has been home to minor league sports teams for so many years. We're lucky. Uber family-friendly atmosphere. Roughriders ticket prices have increased by several $'s since my last review in 2014, but those extra dollars are worth it. I believe there are six different ticket price points now ($13-$25), and if you're really into hockey you may even consider season tickets. Roughriders season ticket holders are a hoot...I always seem to be seated next to them. :) From what I saw, staffing has definitely decreased over the years. I didn't notice any employees except for those scanning tickets, working in the concessions stands and those manning various booths along the concourse. Back in the day (10+ years) they used to have ushers that would help you find your seats. I don't know if these ushers were volunteers from the Roughriders booster group or if they were actually paid, but it was SO nice to have them there. Within the next 5 years or so the seating in the ice area might need to be evaluated (in the very least all seats could all use a deep clean). There is very little leg room and no cup holders. I saw many patrons using the seats as steps to get from one row to the next. Yikes. Talk about wear and tear. I also agree with another Yelper's statement (see Cedar Rapids Ice Arena reviews) that if you're paying for premium seats it would be nice to see the plexiglass cleaned more regularly. Also, the men I was with stated that the men's room near sections L & N was absolutely rank. After I heard this I opted not to use the ladies room. Concessions: stick with the cheese curds. They desperately need a new soft pretzel supplier. Bar: above average selection of beer, etc. available. Expect arena prices on all food and drink. Overall, 5/5 stars. You won't have perfection across the board given how many guests go through here on a nightly basis. Expect to spend at least $50-$100 per couple (dependent upon ticket prices, drinks/food). Parking is free! Recommend.

The games are really fast paced and entertaining, but we haven't yet seen a win. Tickets are relatively affordable and there's a good chance you could sit somewhere better if you sneak around lol. They get ya on the snacks though $$. Bathrooms are a little janky and you can expect a line. Standard good time sports outing for a winter evening in CR.
