PPG Paints Arena question

[Fantomas]

Hi folks,

I have a question for those who know the arena well. I bought tickets for the Pens home opener and have seats in section 103 (which is supposed to be pretty good). Paid a pretty penny, but I figure it makes sense to treat yourself once in a while.

Do you know if this section is where players come onto the ice? I cannot find information about this anywhere. I know that the seats face one of the benches, but is this also where the tunnels to the locker rooms are? Or are they at 109 and 105?

I'm including a map. Thanks in advance for any help.

Thanks! I'm stoked.

Also going to see the Andy Warhol museum and drive to Fallingwater (the Frank Lloyd Wright house) an hour away.

I love Pittsburgh and have been there before. The Pirates baseball park is the best one I've ever visited. But this is my first time seeing the Pens in person.

If you are going all the way to Fallingwater, nearby is Nemacolin, the resort that Hardy, the 84 Lumber guy built. Free to go in, worth visiting and you can have lunch or dinner there.

Any suggestions for a good eatery/pub close to the arena? Thanks in advance.

Souper Bowl is decent enough for a bite and beer. Right across from the arena on Fifth Ave

I think I'll create an emergency fund budget...next time that Pens play the Flyers I'm gonna fly out to Pittsburgh. I've never seen the Penguins play in Pittsburgh.

You'll have a blast at your game.

Two things I would recommend would be a sandwich at the original Primanti Brothers, which is pretty neat, and a trip to the Heinz History Center, which has a lot of very interesting facts about Pittsburgh, and some sports treasures. It is well worth the trip, and not too far from PPG.

Not "close" but 2 miles away. Fat Heads. Section 103 tunnel is for visitors.
