I suggest booking your flight a day in advance if possible. This allows you to get familiar with the area and relax before the big day. I found it really helpful to acclimate; it made the experience even better.

If you're prone to motion sickness, I'd recommend taking some medicine before your flight. I didn’t, and I wish I had; it would have made the experience much more enjoyable for me.

I think checking their social media for last-minute deals or special events before visiting can save you some cash. I stumbled upon a promotion that made my flight more affordable.

My advice is to arrive 30 minutes early. You get to watch other flights, which really amps up the excitement and gives you a sneak peek into the fun you’re about to have.

I think trying the early morning rides around 8 AM is great. You beat the heat and get to see the ranch waking up, which is super peaceful!

If you're driving, take note of the traffic pattern after events. I once got stuck for over 30 minutes just trying to exit the lot.

Check the food prices inside before you go, because they can be steep! I brought some snacks and was glad I did.

Parking can be a mess during big events, so try to arrive at least an hour early. I parked a mile away once and it was a hassle.

I suggest arriving around 5 PM for evening games. The parking fills up fast, and the earlier you get there, the more options you’ll have. Plus, you can grab some snacks without missing the action.

Bring a few extra bucks for tips! The staff here is super friendly and attentive. I think throwing a little extra their way will make your experience even better, plus you'll get great service.

Don’t forget sunscreen even if it looks cloudy! I learned the hard way and ended up with a sunburn halfway through my session.

Check the schedule for any skate events or contests before you go. I stumbled upon one and it made my visit way more exciting!

My advice is to check out the team store online before your visit. They had some deals on items that weren’t available at the actual store at the arena.

I recommend arriving around 5 PM for a 7 PM game. You’ll get a good parking spot and have time to explore the arena and get snacks.

I think it’s smart to skip the expensive food options inside. There are great local spots just a short walk away where you can grab a bite beforehand. I ended up spending way too much on nachos!

I recommend checking the game schedule in advance and grabbing tickets online. They sell out fast, and trust me, you don't wanna miss a chance to see a game live! Also, prices can be steeper at the door.

Karen November 27, 2024

My advice is to arrive around 90 minutes before game time. You can explore the stadium and take some awesome pics without the huge crowd getting in your way. It's also when the atmosphere starts getting electric!

I suggest checking their happy hour specials from 4-6 pm to save some cash. The drinks are way cheaper and the vibe is super chill.
