Phoenix drops first game in new home

The Yotes lost 3-1 to Nashville tonight in their first game at the Glendale Arena.

Nice crowd they had -- standing-room-only crowd of 19,052 in the 17,799-seat Glendale Arena.

Much larger arena than the piece of crap made-for-basketball arena they used to have.

That must be tough though, spending a decent portion of your season in one place and then spending the rest in a a "new" home that really won't feel like home for a long time...ehh...

That's a nice size for an arena. Only 1600 more than they had. Seems anything more than 18,000 in a small market is too much.

I think I read somewhere that Phoenix asked to play more road games until their arena was complete so it wouldn't feel like a "new" home. I just counted and it seems they only played 13 home games at AWA. Too bad they couldn't get a win tonite, but I'm rooting for Nashville too. :D
