is the BB&T arena cold inside during hockey games

[thesawch]

Will be heading to a hockey game Thursday night while in Ft Lauderdale at the bb&t arena while in Sunrise . Is the arena inside pretty cold ? Should we were pants and a light sweater for inside ?? Thanks

A Canadian asking about proper attire for a hockey game??? Seriously??? :D:D:D

 

Yes it will be just as cold inside the arena as in any hockey arena in the Great White North. Blame it on that big sheet of ice on the floor. You won't see anyone not wearing pants (thank goodness :rolleyes:); us thin-blooded Floridians will usually be wearing bomber jackets and touques because of the jarring difference between the outside and inside temperatures. I take it you plan on wearing shorts and tank tops for the rest of your stay here--but you still need that sweater for the game.
