Better than the Spectrum!

by caspian321 , Apr 17 '01
Pros: Brewery, great seats, lots of parking
Cons: Expensive
The First Union Center is a great improvement over the older Spectrum which is right next door.

There are a variety of seating choices. Many companies own club-boxes or suites. The club-boxes have a bar right there, and there are...

Awesome Arena

by cjg , Apr 05 '00
Pros: Easy access
Cons: food is decent at best
I must say how impressed I am with the somewhat-still-new First Union center. It's an interesting set-up, with the old Spectrum and the Vet right there as well.

For starters, it is easy to get to. I-95 and 76 are right there, with easy access...

Excellent Stadium. None Better

by cheetah1218 , Feb 21 '02
Pros: Good food, Excellent seats, Great view, and decent price.
Cons: Limited Parking, Food price, and Long wait to get out of stadium.
Now I am a die hard Hockey fan and I go see atleast 15 to 20 games a year and the First union center in Philadelphia is by far one of the best. Not only is their Hockey team up and rising but the First Union Center is one of the cleanest, well built...

by kyle70 , Oct 08 '01
Pros: Good seats, clean, lots of extras, and good teams
Cons: Expensive, parking is tough
I have attended the First Union Center multiple times to see 76ers games, and I can say that it is a a great arena. There are lots of displays about Philadelphia basketball, from the high school level all the way up to the pro players, and there are fan...

Comfortable seats, great parking

by pcomsec , Aug 21 '00
Pros: It's new, so it's very clean, comfortable seats
Cons: $5 a beer, $8 parking
Last night I had the incredible opportunity to attend the AC/DC concert at the First Union Center (or F.U. Center as it is affectionately called). See my review of the concert if you want to know how it was – hint, hint FABULOUS.

The Nice Venue with the Nice View

by domewarrior , Apr 17 '00
Pros: spacious, beautiful inside and out, fun.
Cons: not loud.
In the First Union Center, I have seen several Philadelphia Flyer's hockey games. Located by the other sports facilities of the city, with plenty of room around for parking, it was convenient. It was also easy to find. The parking situation was...

Let's Go Flyers!

by Lilsmudge , Jan 19 '00
Pros: Beautiful, clean, areas well marked
Cons: very close seating arrangements.
The First Union Center is the newer home to the Philadelphia Flyers. Opening in 1996, it is a bigger arena than the former Home of the Flyers, the Spectrum.

I so badly wanted to go to the First Union center during the first season it was...

One of The Best!

by clickable , Jun 14 '01
Pros: Fairly new arena, club boxes galore, roast beef sandwiches & cheese steaks
Cons: Not even allowed on the club box level if you don't have club box seats
I'm an avid hockey fan in the tri-state area and often go to Madison Square Garden, Continental Arena & the First Union Center. Once you've been to the garden and continental you will really appreciate the First Union Center. I agree with some of the...

A Real Winner in Philly

by zulbok , Jun 26 '01
Pros: Outside center city, easy commuting, Excellent condition, great seating, Flyers and Sixers action
Cons: Food is just ok
The First Union Center also known as the FU Center is already a hometown favorite for Philadelphia citizens. And why not? The huge building seats 20,000 people for hockey games and even more for basketball games. Not only do the always good Flyers...

First Class Center

by ALBucs , Jan 26 '00
Pros: Great Seating and food. FANTASTIC FANS!
Cons: (none)
I've only been to the First Union Center four times, then I moved to Alabama. And I'll tell you what I think of the First Union Center. I loved it so much, I was thinking about buying a plane ticket back to Philly just to go and see those Sixers play...

I have been to the First Union Center for a Flyers game, I am a diehard Flyers fan! In two weeks, my sister, mother and me are taking my 3 year old daughter to see Sesame Street live there. I know she will like it. The seating is great at the First Union...

by leegarson , Feb 05 '00
Pros: Beautiful concourse, good food in restaurant, nice seats
Cons: getting out of parking lot
I was so excited when I got tickets off of EBay.com to go see the Flyers take on the Mighty Ducks at the First Union Center on February 3rd. We got here an hour early and parked four rows deep. The walk to the Center was about the same as a walk from...

First Rate Facility

by nicks902 , Feb 08 '00
Pros: concourse level
Cons: parking lot
The First Union Center in Philadelphia is one of the premiere facilities in the United States and Canada. There is not a bad seat in the house and none are obstructed. I have seen many Sixers and Flyers games in the First Union Center and I am impressed...

second only to the Palestra

by jerry6ersfan , Dec 30 '03
Pros: good views, lots of food, teams are good now
Cons: not as loud as before
I was a little skeptical when they chose to build the wachovia center (known before as the First Union, or FU Center - as everyone in philly knows). The old place was soooo loud, and so fun that I wasn't sure it would be the same. well, the only bad ...

First Union Center is First to Mr

by WhiteyFord14 , Jan 03 '01
Pros: Atmosphere, food, service, the team
Cons: after game traffic
I attended a Philadelphia Flyers game at the First Union Center against the Detriot Red Wings. For a die hard hockey fan the First Union Center is heaven. You can feel the adrenaline flowing through the entire arena. The people, the displays, the rink,...
