I love the Stan Sheriff Center for University of Hawaii Volleyball and Basketball games.  This is a great 10,300 seat venue that was built in 1994 on the campus of University of Hawaii at Manoa. I have sat in seats all over this arena during the past twenty years (wow- it does not seem that old), but now have settled into great season ticket seats that we love.  On this night however we sat in somebody else's seats and they were the best ever.  Court Side seats on the floor for Mens Basketball.  The seats included entry into the Ed Wong Hospitality Suite that is under the arena with access to the court.  Great to walk around under the facility and mingle with the players, sportscasters, cheerleaders and Rainbow Dancers.  The Ed Wong Suite features tables and comfortable seating with large leather chairs and an abundance of flat screen televisions to watch the games.  I have been to the Ed Wong Suite when loads of appetizers and food were presented along with an open bar for beer and wine.  On this occasion there were only hot dogs and a no host bar.  I am not complaining one bit, this place is still comfortable and a great place to hang out before the game and at halftime.  We enjoyed a large beefy hot dog.  Added some onion, chili and jalapeƱos to mine and it was great.  My daughter opted for the Hawaii favorite of plain hot dog with rice and chili.  I washed my dog down with a few cold ones at $4.50 each, picked up a cup to go and was ready for the game.  We walked out of the Ed Wong Suite turned right and the entrance to the court was just a few feet away.  We sat in large black leather chairs on the court.  What a different experience this is.  You can really see the intensity of the game, feel the players emotions and see how tall these basketball players really are.  Amazing experience being on the court.  During halftime we went back to the Ed Wong Suite to partake in a splash as I was a bit parched.  Sat back in the comfortable leather chairs, hoisted a cold one and watched a bit of the half time show on t.v.  Oh….I could get used to this.  Somehow feels that my sixth row Season Tickets will never compare to the seats we enjoyed on this rainy Manoa night.  So thankful and grateful to our hosts that allowed us to join them in the Ed Wong Suite and on the court.  This was awesome!
