Pros: large stadium..well kept(clean)
Cons: seats way too close!
I attended a concert(AEROSMITH) at First Union Center. The place is tremendously huge!! I especially liked the information board,announcing upcoming events. I also enjoy the fact that there is VIP seating. I never saw another building like...

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...

Pros: Beautiful new arena
Cons: Price of tickets ($75.00)
Philadelphia sports fans finally have a state of the art arena to see their home teams (Flyers, Sixers)play in. The new First Union center has everything a sports fan could ask for. Plenty of concession stands,close parking, and finally enough rest...

Pros: Overall Viewing Experience
Cons: Missing Something intangible
I don't think the F.U. Center is a bad arena by any means, but I think that for a modern arena it could be better. Most of my trips there were for Philadelphia Flyers games.
There are only two main entrances into the building and 2 escalators...

Pros: beautiful center
Cons: bad food,over priced
The First Union Center is a beautiful center, but the food leaves something to be desired. First of all, where are the Philadelphia soft pretzels? Philadelphia is famous for its soft pretzels. The pretzels at the center taste like they were made in the...

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 ...

Pros: A modern arena with better lighting and crowd control entering and exiting
Cons: Same cramped seating spacing.
My first trip to the First Union Center was in early April for the Houston Rockets NBA game with the hometown Sixers, showcasing Yao Ming's visit. I must admit, I had a bit of an inside advantage. I had a four ticket package that included VIP parking,...

Pros: good beer,good food, Iverson
Cons: none to speak of
I have been to two events in the last year at the FU center. The first event was the 76ers knocking the Magic out of last years playoffs. The arena was awesome that day. The building was rocking and the Magic were absolutely playing scared and...

Pros: Better view than in the old Spectrum
Cons: Terrible ambiance when compared to the Spectrum
The FU Center is a gorgeous building. The concourse is much wider than the Spectrum was. There is more than one bathroom. There are many places to buy souvenirs and food. There are ATM machines, air hockey tables, bubble hockey tables and basketball...

Pros: Food, accessibility, sound system, comfort, facilities
Cons: atmosphere too white collar, dull
The First Union Center is a beautiful building. Walking through the corridors, you would think that it is a hotel or you are at an airport. It is very nice, feeling almost a bit luxurious. The food is very good, with selections of chicken, pizza,...

Pros: Easy access, good seating
Cons: pricey
I went to a Flyers game at the First Union Center last year and was impressed with the newer facility. It is heads above the old home of the Flyers and Sixers, the Spectrum, which was falling down and cramped.
The parking and access to the venue is...

Pros: Decent views, modern, good variety of food and drink
Cons: Area is a warzone, parking is not the best
The First Union Center is a nice building for a basketball game, but man you better hope you do not break down getting to the stadium. The center is in the same complex as the Vet and neither is in an area where you want to be stranded. The...

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...

I recently saw my first sporting event at the first union center. I have been there before for concerts and other events, and open house when it first opened but this is the first actual game I have ever been to. It was a great night and I loved the...

Pros: Beautiful arena
Cons: overpriced
The First Union Center should be nice. Its the finest arena that the taxpayers could finance. Don't get me wrong I am a big hockey fan and a sports fan in general. I was a season ticket holder in the late 60s and early 70s when a ticket cost $4.50,...
