A little about us

 Hello and Welcome!

 Frozen Superfans



We're Chris and Kate Dudonis and we hail from South Jersey. Chris is a lifelong NY Rangers fan, Kate a converted Philadelphia Flyers fan. How did that happen??? Well, knowing Kate the way he did, it was through personal stories about the players that Chris knew how to get Kate to turn away from Philly to New York. By the '98 season, she knew the players names and most of the wives names, so lets just say she was all in.
We've rooted for the team through the highest highs and playoff droughts. We've been convinced Sather was an idiot and wondered how in the world we'd replace Zuc and Hags. We prayed for Henrik to hoist the cup just once in his brilliant career and we froze in 0 degree temperatures at Yankee Stadium to see them crush the NJ Devils. 
As the little Dudoni grew up and went off to college, though, we looked at each other and wondered how we would spend our empty nest years. We discussed travel, but had no plan, until one day... an epiphany! People travel all the time to watch their favorite baseball teams in stadiums across the US, why couldn't we do the same? Except we'd follow the Rangers! It will take a lot of years, and Edmonton and Calgary will have to be treated very delicately because neither Chris or Kate are winter lovers, but the decision was made and we are going to go for it! 
We're excited for you to follow along on our adventure!

Arena #1: The Prudential Center aka The Rock

  New Jersey Devils host New York Rangers   April 5, 2025 Final Score NJD 4- NYR 0 The Prudential Center is truly a beautiful arena, we had been here in May of 2024 because Rachel's graduation from MSU was held here and got a taste of how the other half live with the seats we sat in that day. They were very luxurious, spacious, and close to the floor. We did not have these seats for the game and were terribly disappointed, in our next life, we are going to be wealthy. Building 10/10 The Food TPC is an odd place for food. We were completely puzzled by the way everything worked. They had a lot of options, but it seemed there were stations for each item. There was not a traditional "concession stand" where you could get hot dogs, pretzels, popcorn, beer, etc. Each item had its own kiosk unless you wanted more of a restaurant style "to go" meal like tacos or chicken sandwiches. They had a "boardwalk" style food court, but it was absolutely mobbed, so we di...

Visiting Away Ice:Our Criteria

Even though we're there to see and experience as much as we can, and we plan on reporting on it all, we thought it would be prudent to have a list of observations that we want to be sure to make. We want to cover the usuals like the food and seats, but we want to cover some additional details that we think are special about a hockey game. The list The Food Everyone that knows us knows that Kate loves a good hotdog and Chris is a connoisseur of soft pretzels, what's a sporting event without good eats The Seats Comfort as well as placement in the arena. How is the view of the game The Cleanliness Mainly in the bathrooms, but also in general The Souvenir shops Is there a good selection of items The Jumbotron These can be good or bad. Honestly, in all things MSG, this is where the Garden lacks the most. We are looking forward to seeing what some of the new jumbotrons can do The Staff A day at the game can be made or broken by the staff of the arenas. From the ticket takers to the c...
