Yikes. Awful warm out too.
Of course the night I have tickets…
Are you fucking serious? How does an entire arena just mysteriously lose power.
Someone on Twitter mentioned Nationwide still has power but might be on a generator?
AEP’s website has estimated time of restore by 4:30 so hopefully its accurate and that’s enough time before the game
The ice is gonna melt!!!
Mod should pin this until it gets resolved.

Even if the game gets to go, will the food be OK?
Can we borrow Tampa’s Tesla coil for the evening?
This seems like a decent update:
An underground cable that feeds power to the Arena District failed at 1:06 p.m., causing an outage in the area bordered by Neil Ave, Vine St, 3rd St & Long St. Crews are working to reroute customers & make repairs. Estimated restoration time is still to be determined
Sources say the CBJ power play was not affected by the outage
Per Jason Newland, who works for NW, they are being told 11 pm for power restoration.

I am going to guess the game gets postponed.,
It would be our luck to be the team to not participate in the frozen frenzy.
