TheDuke Blue Devils vanquished the Sun Devils of Arizona State 42-39. We entered the stadium via the Glory Road. Despite parking being an "adventure" for us after arriving after the start of the event, we found the walk to the entrance no so crowded or too busy. Finding our section and row was easy and the steps were not to dah ring for my 70yo mom to trudge up, then down. Since a group of us got tickets for this event, we were surrounded by a group of folks from Fort Bliss. It was a place to be social and enjoy the main event, surrounded by the wonderful people of El Paso and plenty of UTEP Miners that regularly call the Sun Bowl home. There are plenty of vendors underneath the stands, but it makes navigating the pathways. The innards of the bowl are well marked, so finding your section is easy. Once you get there, the seats are unblocked and access to the stadium today was awesome. On the rare chance that it does rain in El Paso, the bowl is uncovered...so come prepared. Similarly, since it's out in the open, the true threat is the glaring sun...sun block or shade is useful, if not necessary. All in all, we had a Grrrrrr-eat time at the Sun Bowl. Congrats to the Blue Devils.

My sister, friends and I attended the Coldplay concert at UTEP Sun Bowl Stadium for the very first…read moretime ! My sister has been there before for football games , but has never gone there before for a major concert . I think if it wasn't for the scorching heat, it would have been a much more pleasant experience. Overall, though, it was hard to tell whether the city of El Paso was ready to handle the mega stardom of Coldplay, and the crazy crowds brought by Coldplay's presence in town! We attended the second concert in El Paso, which was exactly 2 weeks ago today on Sat (6/14). The lines could have been somewhat better organized because it wasn't completely clear which line was for what. Like so many others, our friend had already purchased our tickets through a legitimate and validated ticket vendor like StubHub. But even so, my sister decided to go to the very front of the many lines to inquire exactly where we were supposed to enter from. Once we found out we didn't have to stand in line for that long, we made our way to the front, got our ice cream sandwiches , refreshing cucumber drinks, and other drinks before we made our way into the stadium and to our seats. There were plenty of food and snack options. But the challenging part was getting through the throngs of crowds in the sweltering heat without fainting or passing out. We had heard that someone had fainted and passed out at the Fri (6/13) concert. So we were very careful and tried to stay as well-hydrated as we could in hopes that wouldn't happen to any of us ! The restrooms were not the greatest, but they were decent for their purpose. Once the opening acts finished, and Coldplay finally started performing, it was such an amazing spectacle at Sun Bowl Stadium :D ! The excitement of the crowd and the magic of Coldplay filled the stadium :D ! It was in every sense "A Sky Full of Stars " :) ! Unfortunately, just like any other stadium , it was a zoo to get out! And because it seemed like Old Glory Road was the main way to exit, it took us at least 2 hours just to move 6 miles! Unless UTEP Sun Bowl can improve the traffic and crowd flow in the future, I'm not sure if we would return for a concert. But despite the challenges with getting in and out of a stadium, watching Coldplay for their "Music of the Spheres" tour was absolutely mesmerizing and captivating :D ! And truly an awesome experience we will always treasure and never forget :) !

The venue is small (200 or so seats) so you feel like you're really in the mix of things. Plus tickets can range from a couple of dollars to, at most, twenty dollars!

Overall, don't expect broadway productions but do expect to have a great time enjoying some local flavor showing off some excellent, dedicated work!

Sat at a table, empty for 5 minutes, sat for 5 minutes, then two guys come by and say, "this is our table, those are our (empty) drinks." So I'm faced with the decision of meeting their testosterone with mine, or relinquish the table. These young guys don't look like they have careers, so I've got more to lose meeting their attitude with mine. I move on. This happens several more time at other spots and at other tables and with other patrons. Lots of empty tables, lots of empty drinks and young guys and girls making false claims to tables. In my opinion, all those false claims could be alleviated by just having a busboy bus the empty drinks, and suddenly no claims can be made. It's been 90 minutes and not one busboy has gone to bus any empty drinks. And lots of standing claims are still being made at empty tables. The young people seldom are even making trips to the bar to buy new drinks or fill the bartenders tip jars. Only tips in the jar right now are the tips I have left behind. Music is good. Ambiance is decent.

It wasn't very crowded at all. It's a nice looking place. The drinks were very good! It would have been nice to have table service though. Then we went down to the lobby bar and it was pretty packed so we actually sat in some chairs in the lobby area as a staff member recommended. Of course there was no table service there either. But we had fun!

The bar and staff are great. We had a VIP table here for NYE. But it's not just for parties. You can visit here whenever. Often, we will have a celebration dinner of some sort at 1700 Steakhouse downstairs. One time, for Judez birthday, they not only provided us with a bottle of champagne, but then afterwards they escorted us upstairs (10th floor - El Mirardor), and gave us a free drink or two on the rooftop. It's a cool place and worth checking out from time to time!
