Another question. Any places in the Kissimmee area that does embroidery? Wanted a couple Jerseys done up. Thanks again.
Hey guys, Im coming down with my 9 and 6 year old for Canadian March break. I've got tickets to see my Habs on the 16th. Any suggestions as to where to park or eat prior to the game. I want to make it a whole day event.
Also, I hear there is some type of fan zone outside the arena prior to the game with bands etc. Any suggestions would be helpful.
Cheers

I usually get there just before puck drop so your mileage may vary with regards to parking. Most available parking for me was northwest of the Selmon Expressway in the map link I provided above. You could drive up to the closer lots just before the Expressway and then find parking farther away if you don't want the kids walking that far.
The fan zone outside the arena is called Thunder Alley and it's pretty much impossible to miss as the entrance is right next to it.
EDIT: My suggestion is to drop the fam off up close and then just go find whatever the closest available 20 dollar parking is (there are like 4 big lots right next to the Expressway) because there aren't many cheaper places to park nearby and you'll end up driving in circles to find them.
A good friend of mine has a pretty good chance of attending UCF starting next year (she was accepted, debating between it and two other schools).
... methinks I might need to give this topic a read at some point in the future if she goes there, as you'd better believe that I'd find a way to swing in a Bolts game to start or end a trip to visit her.
UCF was pretty awesome when I was there years ago. The drive to Tampa from the campus would run you about 2 hours, I think (I live in between so I've never had to do it all at once).
Hello all,
keep seeing nice condos in Riverview....can anyone fill me in on that area?
Boring and suburban. I live close to 75 a little North of Riverview (technically Tampa, but really Brandon) and it's the same thing up here. Big box stores and strip malls. That said, the rent/housing is cheap and it's quite safe in 99% of the area.
what i figured...which is fine, probably wouldn't be able to enjoy the non boring and suburban each day anyways...is there any place that's easy access to 75 and to Amelie that isn't that way that's still safe and affordable?
Full disclosure, I'm not from Tampa (about 30 minutes away depending on traffic), but I've been hearing Seminole Heights is a neighborhood that is doing the old "Greenwich Village" thing--lots of hipsters and entrepreneurs are moving in because it's cheap and fixing the place up.

What beaches should I check out while I am down there? Also, we are looking at the river view area. Any neighborhoods you guys recommend checking out for a 30 year old married couple?
Me and my wife are moving to Gulfport, from Seattle and love the crazy hippies lol. Although not really hippies ourselves.
My wife and I are moving down to the Tampa area next month. Have liked the Lightning for a long time, so it'll be nice to have a good team locally to watch and follow in addition to Chicago. Looking forward to being there and maybe visiting this forum a bit more to chat about all things Lightning.
Nice! I'm moving in August too from the Chicago burbs. Even transferring from work too (Currently work at the Apple Store in Oakbrook, going to the store in International Plaza)
So I was wondering what the watch party options might be for Game 6. Will it be shown outside of the arena and if so do I just show up or do I need a pass ?
