Last Friday I had an opportunity to go to the Washington Capitals vs. Buffalo Sabers hockey game at the Verizon Center in Washington DC. I’m always up for going to a professional sports game, but this one was a bit better because they were tickets for the luxury box!? I went with a few friends, as well as a few people that I didn’t know.

For those that have never been in a luxury box at a professional sports game, it’s a great experience. You have a great view of the game, the room is usually pretty nice with free food and free drinks, plasmas on the wall, a private bathroom, etc. Our room had a ton of wings, hot dogs, cookies, cakes, gummy bears, jelly beans, chips, nuts, beer, wine, etc. Take a look at the pics:

Here is the hallway for the Lexus suite level:

?Here’s? a view of room looking towards the stadium:

Here’s the kitchen side of the room:

Here’s the other side of the room, the bathroom is on the left, and there is a closer straight ahead:

Here’s a view of the game from our 3rd level suite:

Here’s a random picture of Allie and Bethany. You’ll notice nobody left in the stadium, the game was over, and we decided to keep drinking for a bit

I’ve been to a luxury box game before (At the Baltimore Orioles for a baseball game), and it was a pretty similar experience. If you’ve ever been in one, how did it compare?
