And for people with kids, especially daughters, who are interested in sports, the collegiate women’s hockey (and all athletics) is such a good atmosphere to expose them to. Even more affordable, some of them are even free, and the lower overall attendance at most of those games makes them even easier to bring a family to, they can get right up to the glass to appreciate the play, they have space to move around and burn off energy during the intermissions, and damn do those athletes appreciate fans, especially young girls like they once were, coming out to support them. The new arenas in Storrs and Fairfield are only going to make those experiences better.
