    I've been here for many of my school games but the restroom do need more attention and cleaning.

    I've only been to this stadium once for Taylor Swifts Era's Tour in 2023 and now recently in 2025…read morefor a football game but I liked it. It was weird having the roof closed for the concert. I didn't find the beers too expensive in the East Club where my seats were for Tay Tay, but in the main seating areas they have crappy beers for more. I dunno. I got large Voodoo Ranger IPA cups for around $10 which is great for a stadium but that was in the private East Club . Parking at the stadium is a bit much, but I parked in a private lot across the street for $15 which isn't bad. It was more for football and other events. The sound was great and despite being up a level on the side, I had excellent views of the stage and had so much fun. Only bad part of the experience was taking over 1 hour to get out of the parking lot (despite the exit being less than 50 feet from where I parked).

When we got in, everyone went their way to get food! That's really what we went for, THE FOOD! We danced, we laughed and we danced again! The rides were lit and the people had on their outfits!! If you have never attended Houston Rodeo, you should experience it at least once! Cowboys and cowgirls doing country activities, the concerts, the rides. Don't miss out!

    I decided to support my little cousin whose a dancer for her team at their last football game of…read morethe season. I wanted the family to come out and support her as well, so I started looking online to confirm the address and ticket prices. Man oh MAN! Friday Night Football is so much different now than it was when I was growing up! Not only did I find the address to the Stadium, but also an online site to buy tickets to the game (with a nice online fee of course)! They even sold VIP tickets which I found out later is a section that other people cannot cross into without their ticket--especially when the halftime show is going on. They even have cops around to make you move from certain areas during the performances. Safety first, but man these rules procedures and exclusions kinda killed my vibe. We did arrive early enough to get some nice seats, but still I'm not use to the printed tickets with qr codes on them. Seating was pretty comfortable, but I would suggest buying and bringing one of those mini stadium seats to keep from slouching. The home team has a little rowdy group of teenagers posted up making noise the entire time during the game, so maybe beware of that. Otherwise, I enjoyed the Friday Night Lights of High School Football. There is a concession stand to satisfy your viewijng pleasure. Pretty standard prices. $5 will get you something to last you the first quarter if you're a kid. All in all, nice stadium with plenty of parking and CLEAN bathrooms--RARE!

    For a university basketball arena, I'm really impressed with the Fertitta Center. Home of the…read moreUniversity of Houston Cougars, this is a great venue to catch a game. The center is modern, clean, organized and has all the amenities. I came prepared with a clear bag but entry was still a breeze. Security does a great job pointing people in the direction of their seats and ensuring that stairways and hallways remain clear. In terms of food and drink, I was really impressed with the number of options. They have two full service food counters on either side of the arena. While I personally did not get anything, I saw people passing by with nachos and popcorn. If you want something a little more substantial Antones Poboys and Chick-fil-a were both set up for grab and go. They also had lots of alcoholic beverage options from tall boy beers, liquor for cocktails and even a spiked fresh lemonade stand. The arena has a fan shop onsite, some historical displays and a kid coloring zone. The game itself was well played (they won!) and executed from the announcer to the lights and entertainment. Great experience overall.

    I like this venue! Great view from anywhere in the stands. Parking garage has plenty of spots and…read moreis spacious. They do a good job of keeping this venue clean. I like the large screens and how red everything is... you really feel the Cougar spirit here. During commencement season, UH does a good job of managing traffic in the garage and on the streets.

    I don't think most people who visit here understand the historical significance it has for Houston…read moreand its namesake university. Firstly, this was the same venue that hosted Houston's Phi Slama Jama teams that included Hakeem Olajuwon, Michael Young, and Clyde Drexler. Before Toyota Center, even before the Summit/Compaq Center, Houston had Hofheinz Pavilion. This was the original home of the Houston Rockets when they moved here. It hosted live acts such as Elton John, Elvis Presley, The Rolling Stones, The Jackson 5, Madonna, Genesis, Prince, and Bob Dylan to name few. Yes, this place is a bit dated looking, but it most definitely looks nothing like a high school arena. Hofheinz Pavilion seats about 8,500 spectators, has multiple video screens, etc. The University of Houston has announced $40 million in upgrades, and already blows all other basketball arenas in the Houston area away minus the Toyota Center and Reliant Arena. This place is underrated.

Not many smiles and I witnessed some downright rude behavior toward people in attendance. Come on people, if you hate your job that much, QUIT! The people in attendance are there to celebrate their friends and loved ones academic accomplishments. It is a great day for them. Pretty petty and selfish to put a damper on that experience just because you are having to work on a Saturday or whatever lame excuse you try to justify your actions with!!!
