Sounds like it’s happening. Pretty hyped for a day of tailgating and outdoor hockey! Who you hoping we play?
My wish is the Caps to build on that rivalry.

Might have to come to Raleigh just for this
From what I've heard they want to make the price point affordable for college students and that required them to guarantee all tickets would be sold. Canes are banking on this being an broader NC event rather than just an outdoor Canes game. More of a premier College Gameday style with tailgating, fanfare, and complimentary side events.

It’s pretty amazing what having an owner who gives even a passing f*** can do.

Not going to lie, this has me pretty freaking amped. I can think of about 10-15 people who don't usually go to games who will go to this, or at the very least tailgate for it.

Would be fun to get the NC State & UNC club teams a game on the outdoor ice too.
Heck yeah, I'd be in for that!

Aho!
Amazing can't wait to buy my ticket already. I wonder if this will include a specialty uniform and all that jazz?

Already trying to think out where the best place to get seats will be. I feel like the lower bowl might not be the best option at an outdoor game as for the site lines. Any of you attend these outdoor games? If so any input?
I think upper lower bowl at the Carter is the way to go. Lower upper a close second.
I'll definitely go and I know my sister in Nashville will come. If we play the Caps, I think some friends from DC will come too
might have to find my way to Raleigh for this type of thing

Oh absolutely on the specialty uniform. Also heard Dundon plans to make this a week long event here culminating with the game. Wants a big concert at PNC the night before

Absolutely will intend to be there. Wife is a Caps fan. It may have been a baseball stadium, but I'll confirm that high level seats were the best from their Winter Classic.
I am incredibly excited for this. All local fan bases deserve this. I get why it's not the same tv spectacle anymore, but it's super fun in person.

Please no one use phrase "I know my sister" when discussing this on mainboard.

Yep, def going. This event is going to open a lot of eyes. We’ve got something good cooking down here and it isn’t meth! Well it is, but it... isn’t.

I had some pretty far back seats for the game at the big house in ann arbor but didnt feel like I was too far away or missing anything at all. I havent been to Carter finley in 20+ years but I imagine it would be about the same. I was probably further away from the field in that stadium than would be possible to get at this one
