    JPJ started off with a bang. The men’s and women’s hoops teams both took home victories, with the men’s team beating #10 ranked Arizona in front of a capacity crowd.

    The current 4 beer limit causes alcoholics to get drunk prior to the show. We witnessed an anebriated man fall and hit his head on the chairs adjacent to us before the opening band

    I haven't actually seen a basketball game here, but it provides a wonderful venue for concerts and other large events. The facilities are quite impressive. Only bad part is the high concession costs.

    Definitely would go to another concert here. One of the best run and organized concerts I've been to.

    STUDENTS: If they try to make you go up stairs; go up, turn left, turn left again down the stairs and enjoy the lower level seats! Silly system.
