Yea, we did make the game. We got there about 4 minutes to game-time and got $65 seats in section 106 Row Y for $41 each. Not as cheap as I wanted, but they ended up being pretty damn good seats.
It was a good game. Honestly, I was very surprised to see the arena all but filled to capacity. The entire upper bowl, club, and sky terrace was sold out and it looked like 98% of the lower bowl was as well. It was surprising to me since the blue jackets are rated so poorly yet all of Columbus still comes out.
It was my first blue jackets game. Had a good time, I think I'll be going to more. I want to check out the Destroyers as well.
