    As a kid I remember seeing some of the great heavyweight boxing matches form Madison Square Garden.

    This sports arena above Penn, St Station holds about 20,000 and is home to several teams. Despite the fact I was 'in the gods' to see an ice-hockey game, the atmosphere, catering and sightlines to the game were all first rate. Where we were the 'banter' of the New York crowd was also very witty and part of the overall experience to savour.

    The venue should still be in good shape of NYC win the rights to stage the 2012 olympics.

    We found tickets at the place itself much cheaper than through companies like ticketmaster.

    Although the rangers appear to be in the Doldrums, the experience of seeing top-class ice hockey was well worth it. The Ice-hockey games I've seen in England seemed much more physical, but less skillful.

    Find out what's on when you go - even in Ice hockey is not your 'thing' there are big name concerts, basketball, boxing etc. to enjoy.

    We watched lots of kids and dads play hockey together, it was really nice.

    They all lugged their own equipment in rolling bags. I guess that goes with the hobby.

    While wandering around the Upper East side I stopped to watch these guys playing Hockey in Schutz Park. Looks a lot more difficult than the (field) hockey back home

  • Decent crowd finally out in the burbs (no really, this is not manhattan...it's really the burbs out there) so everyone is getting drunk and there's more kids out and all that. Family ***. You know.

    Decent views of the ice and lower ticket prices. Good beer selection too. SWEEEEEEEEEET!

    Oh, and there's nothing around the stadium, so don't think you'll show up and pound back 9 beers at the local bar. There are none. No restaurants, no crackheads, nothing. Get all your *** in the arena.

    Shaved yams.

  • Directions: Ffrom Manhattan...Take the LIRR from Penn Station to Hempstead (last stop, ticket ~15 bucks). Takes about 50 mins or so . Once there find a cab and say "HOCKEY!" or something (cost 10 bucks or so). or the N70, or N71, or N72 bus.

  • Go see an ice-hockey game at Madison Square Garden. Watching grown men pummel each other into walls at high speed is definately a great way to spend an evening

    NHL hockey , my first hockey game in the US and I must say a very enjoyable experience a good crowd, but suprisingly quiet compared to a british game where the crowd realy gets behind their home team

    Saw the New York Rangers play Montreal Canadians at Madison Square Garden. What a brilliant night's entertainment ! We had great comfy seats and there was beer and food available all night. Entertainment was really good between periods of play and the crowd was really friendly and upbeat ! Enjoyed it so much that we've been hooked on the game since we came home !

    Hockey: MSG - Madison Square Gardens

  • So ya wanna see the Rangers play? Wanna see Jagr cherry pick like the Czech dick he is? Well, do to Penn Station and follow the signs for MSG. Get there about 1-2hrs before a game and go to the ticket booths for last minute seats. They usually have them there and for decent prices. I got 4 $40 tickets 1hr before the game from the booth. Another time I got scalper tickets and payed 60 bucks per ticket and I was sitting in the nosebleeds (those legit 40 buck tickets got me in section 328 vs row 413 from the scalper). The beer is normal stadium beer. Drink it a lot or go nearby and get trashed.

    Hockey rocks. View is good here. Ambience is a bit flat, but that's cause New Yorkers are sissy ***es.

    Wear pants. and a 12 inch dildo's on your forehead.
