    Hey this place is awesome. They let us use their facility more than once and its nice. I was way…read moreenvious of what they got going on. Clean, new, etc. Thanks again from a small JUCO school.

    Home of the Wichita State University Shockers! The "Roundhouse."…read more I grew up watching players like Xavier McDaniel grace the courts of Henry Levitt Arena, so when they built Koch to replace it...I was worried. However, Koch succeeded in keeping everything I loved about Levitt while creating a gorgeous state-of-the-art facility! Koch Arena is known throughout college basketball as an amazing environment, but until you experience it first hand you have no idea! There is not a bad seat in the house (unlike Allen Fieldhouse) due to the high raking seating arrangement creating a very intimate atmosphere. The staff is amazing, the food vendors are great, and the environment is electric! The shape of the domed ceiling causes all the crowd noise to be funneled down onto the court creating a very tough atmosphere for visiting teams. The power behind that noise is the best attribute to Koch Arena; the fans. WSU fans support their teams passionately and when 10,000+ fans assemble for every men's basketball game it is easy to see why this arena has earned the prestige it has throughout college basketball. I have been privileged to get to attend games at many arenas around the world and the United States. When I go to Creighton games at CentryLink Center in Omaha I've been boo'd, shoved, blocked from going to the bathroom, called names, and had objects thrown at me. That would NEVER happen at Koch. We root for our team, we cheer for the win, but we never make opposing teams and their fans feel unsafe. We're Wichitans...we're friendly. So if you live in Wichita and you haven't been to a game, don't miss out. If you are visiting with your team and playing against the Shockers...come on in! We're happy to have you here...we're just gonna win. Seriously, this is the best arena atmosphere in men's college basketball. GO SHOCKS!!!

    We went to see Hairball on February 14, 2026. The show was amazing! We had never been before to…read moreHartman or to see the band. The sound system was great. I felt very safe on the floor. Our only complaint were the $9 beers and no free tap-water, must purchase bottled water for $4. Forced me not to drink which is not a bad a thing. We were needing water since we were in the VIP section standing. We did not bring a purse or have any pockets. Thought we would be able to get free tap water. Was a great experience and we will be back.

    On March 6 I submitted a refund request as I felt I had been overcharged. After almost two weeks, I…read morehave yet to hear from anyone. On February 3rd, I purchased 3 All-session tickets to the NAIA Nationals held at Hartmann Arena through the arena's website. The total cost with all service fees and taxes was $386.31. My son-in-law purchased an additional ticket the morning of the Nationals and paid $65.76 total through the arena's website for the same All-Session ticket. When I got to the arena, there was a sign stating the all-session tickets were $53. I understand that purchasing a ticket through a website does have "convenience fees" but do not understand paying $63 more per ticket than someone buying a ticket the day of the event from the same arena website. Their security is also lacking. As you are walking from one side of the arena with a pretzel in hand where they have food to another you are stopped and asked "did you purchase that here?" Which is a pretty asinine question considering your bags are searched as you enter and you cannot bring food or beverage in. I also saw them stop and search a medic/trainer's bag when they clearly have a badge.

I do not know if I had beginners luck coming to casino, but this casino left a great impression on me. I like they have all sorts of games ranging from low to high volatile machines and I was able to gain at least 5000 tier points. I had a great first night with three handpays. The next day was not so lucky as I gave them back 2K. The following day I left with another 2 handpays. They do a 5% tax however on jackpots which is a bummer, but I guess most states do. They have a smoking and non-smoking session. Their food court is in the middle of the casino floor, but it might be an issue if they have kids as I am not so sure they can enter the casino to eat there and the main places to eat for dining. The casino is located out of the big city, but just 20 minutes away from Wichita and was able to go to the Tanganyika Park. The other good news is no homeless people come here, but you experience this usually in downtown or in Biloxi. They have plenty of drink stations as I usually get a drink. Handpays do not take a long time as most Boyd casinos and they are usually fast. Usually, I would tip, but Kansas state tax takes 5%. I really love this casino and the selection they have. I would definitely come back. I probably will not get 5 handpays this go around like I did, but I lasted at the casino.

    The place was much smaller than expected and pretty pricey, but the kids still had a good time…read more It's definitely geared more toward toddlers, with two small slides, a larger pool for older kids and a surf machine that opened up every other hour for the kids which i was surprised didn't stay open all day, and two play areas for the little ones. For adults, there's a swim-up bar and a hot tub, which were nice touches. We ordered a whole pizza for $18.99 it was pretty good and came out in about 10 minutes. The snack bar offered a good variety of reasonably priced options. Admission felt expensive at $30 per person for ages 3 and up. Since we stayed at the attached hotel, we got a $10 discount, making it $20 per person. Still, for a family, it adds up quickly. The arcade was smaller than it looked online and a bit underwhelming. The games used up a lot of points, and the prize selection was pretty limited. As for the drinks at the swim up bar , we paid $19 for a piña colada and a Marsburst, but they were weak sugary with barely any alcohol.Overall, it's a decent spot for locals looking for a quick day out with young kids. But for families like ours who drove three hours to get there, it didn't quite feel worth the trip.

The pools were great and very interactive and fun. Though, in the hot tub and alcohol bar, there were kids actively jumping in and using it as a swimming pool, with CLEAR signs saying "No children under 18 should enter, even with adult supervision." On top of that, there were parents bringing their babies into the hot tub, which is a SAFTEY RISK! It made myself and my mom very uncomfortable and I complained twice, but really, there was little supervision around the hot tub, so no one could actively watch and supervise who is going in. Other than that issue, I think this is a pretty nice indoor waterpark. Slides and lazy rivers were fun!
