There are a couple of bars in different spots on the floor so there’s never a very long line. We ate dinner at Dacey’s Taphouse before the show and had a couple of drinks so I really wasn’t interested in one when I got inside. They’re individual seats, not actual bleachers and they give you a little more rise if you don’t want to sit on the floor. There is what they call “bleacher seating” in the back and that’s just one section of stadium style seats. I’m not sure how concerts are area but for a show like a comedian where you’re sitting all the time, there’s really no complaints.

There’s a stage at one end that sits pretty high off the floor so even from the back row, there’s not much to obstruct your view. The Event Center is essentially a large room with chairs lined up on the floor for seating. There was just a couple of employees scanning tickets and then it was around another corner that had a map of the layout of the room so you could find easily find your section. We were a little surprised at how easy it was to get in. For a conference or something similar, you could easily make your way between the casino floor and the Event Center but because this was a ticketed event, they brought us through the long way which made forming a line a little easier. They had signs on the casino floor pointing us towards the Event Center which is down a hallway on the northeast side of the building. The room is a multi-purpose room with a stage. I’ve been to a few different casino’s to see shows and they’re all pretty much the same. I got a couple of tickets for the show at Firekeepers which would also mark the first time we had been to a show at the Event Center inside Firekeepers Hotel and Casino. I was never a big fan of him but I figured if J wanted to go, I like stand-up enough that it would be something we could both enjoy.

I didn’t really think their political views lined up which can usually be a a reason not to see a comedian, but she said she always loved his unique view and commentary on every day life. A couple of months ago, J surprised me when she said she’d like to see Dennis Miller.
