I kinda agree(especially about the upstairs seating-but most of the venue wasn't that type of seeting), but also, it definitely didn't feel like a district. Obviously, it didn't have the arena regional feel that Temple or Sun National Bank Center in Trenton had, but it definitely felt bigger than a district. The way I looked at it was that it was similar to Rutgers last year-only everything bad about Rutgers was better.
Also, food selection could have been more varied/cheaper. I'm not a vegetarian/healthy eater, but if I was, I know I would have had a hard time-a grilled cheese seemed to be the healthiest thing(and I'm not normally one to order grilled cheese when I'm eating out...but d*mn...that was a REALLY good grilled cheese).
But, overall, I loved the event. For the first time, I felt like it was incredibly easy/realistic to watch EVERY match; either the close walk from the pits to the stands(as well as space on the side of the arena, near the bottoms of staircases to stand), or the projector that could be viewed from nearly every pit(although it was an inverted view).
