question about the acc

huskerdu · Post #1 » by **huskerdu** » Mon Feb 11, 2008 6:24 am

I am in section 108, row 1 which are good seats, but what I'd like to know is if the player benches are on that side of the court or on the section 119 side of the arena.

any help would be greatly appreciated

The 119 side. I was actually sitting in section 119 for the Clippers game ironically.

No. It will be across the court and to the left. I usually get seats on the 108 side (first time in about 10 games where I sat on the 119 side).

When they first come out, you probably can go over there though and hope they stop for sigs.

sorry to ask so many questions, but won't security see that I'm meant to be seating in the 108 section? I doubt they'd allow me to go to the 119 side of the court prior to the game, no?

and did you find the 119's to be a lot better than the 108's?

I don't think they'll care before the game.

As for what side I liked better. Well If you extended the centre court line up 14 rows, it would have split my crotch.

They were amazing seats, but you could get the same look from the other side. There did seem to be less of the stairwells on the 119 side though. I noticed across from where I was, there was one of them in the middle of nowhere.

oh man that's awesome. I've never sat this close before.

i am contemplating trying to exchange my tickets at the acc box office (if possible_ because I know manu always signs stuff an hour prior to the game, but I would hate to be on the wrong side of the court.

oh well, thanks a lot for your help and good luck to your Raps!

does anyone know which part of the arena the players enter the court from?

is it near section 115 (or basically the same side of the court that the player benches are)

once again, sorry for all the questions

players enter from the tunner between 115 and 117. My seats are pretty close to that in 114 and i can tell you that if you get there early enough you can squeeze your way around as long as you have lower bowl tickets and are nice to the acc staff

thank you so much! I believe doors open at 6, so I plan on getting there super early and maybe just hang around in that area before going back to my section when the game starts.

thanks again man

If you get to the ACC right at 6:00 and head down to the tunnel area, there's a chance you can get an autograph. Matt Bonner will definitely be there signing.

I got to meet Manu briefly before the game and got his autograph as well.

Thanks a ton for all your help guys.

Great game!
