    Tickets for the event were reasonably priced. They don't allow you to buy the middle section tickets unless you have spent your childrens college fund savings gambling there. They also place the chairs entirely too close together and hook them together. Its a huge bummer when the person next to you is taking up their seat and half of yours yet you paid for a full seat. You also get a crick in your neck when sitting to the side because you have to look sideways at the performer and around all of the speakers too. I went to buy a water and the little 8 Oz bottles were 3 dollars each. The Italian restaurant was mediocre. Our waitress was friendly and attentive. We were placed at the high top table and had to take the chairs with backs from another table due to the elderly people with us not being able to balance well. There also were not any hooks on the high top to hang purses or coats and since most of the table were bar stools, everything was just thrown in a pile on the table. The was a nice restroom right outside of the restaurants, however it's deceptive as to being floor to ceiling doors, but then you get in the stall and it's just a standard stall. There were also only 4 female stalls so the women were using the men's because the line was so long for the women's. There was an attendant who was keeping it stocked and clean though. There is a parking lot directly outside of the event center though so if you can't walk long distances, then you are fairly close.
