I will give an update on the temperature in the arena on Thursday when I go there to watch practices.We are also in section 116. Heh, great minds think alike, I guess. We won't be there till Friday practices though.
Does anyone know of the arena is cold or warm?
Yeah, we know outside will be sweltering hot!I will give an update on the temperature in the arena on Thursday when I go there to watch practices.
FYI - the temperatures outside will be in the low 80s during the day and in the 50s at night. Welcome to Texas
Doors open at 10:30 Friday, practices start 11. Source: USFS emailDoes anyone know when the practices begin on Friday? We're not sure of the exact time we'll arrive @ the arena, but we would like to be able to see some of the practice sessions if possible.
Which you might, given that the Georgian fellow rips open his shirt at the climactic moment in his freeI'm packing a light quilted Vera Bradley jacket but I may take it off if I get hot during the mens event.
Did you get a chance to interact with Shun or was he simply waiting behind you? I actually had a chance to interact with him back at Skate America '21. He was sitting in the stands near some other Team Japan members, but he looked so glum that I felt it would be best to not ask him for an autograph or anything. I still wonder sometimes whether I could have cheered him up or not...Omg, guys! Booking.com canceled 80 reservations without telling anyone at Courtyard Marriot including ours!!! If you are staying there, call to find out in advance. On the fun note, I had Shun Sato patient,y waiting for me to find that out, loool.
No, no, I just stepped aside to let the guy grab his keyDid you get a chance to interact with Shun or was he simply waiting behind you?

I'm really sorry to hear about your reservation issues. Fyi, it's always best to book with the hotel directly. That way you are less likely to deal with any unexpected changes to your reservation and if any changes do occur, you won't need to go through a third party to deal with them. Learned this from a friend who used to work in the hotel industry.
I'm not there, but I hope you have fun watching the skating and get to spot more skaters!
Yeah, very cold arena. Makes for so much fun scenes when people get out into the super hot weather. Including us, looool!It's so cold in here! I'm in section 107 near the Kiss and Cry, Ashley Cain and Mariah Bell are a row over today.
I am in section 116 row F seats 1&2 - will you be in your seats for practices?We're sitting in the section closest to the skaters entrance during the practice sessions. Our "real" seats for the competition are in Section 115, Row B, Seats 3 & 4. I'm wearing a black faux leather jacket. I hope to meet some members this weekend.
We prefer to sit near the skaters entrance for the practices. For the competitions we'll sit in our "real" seats.I am in section 116 row F seats 1&2 - will you be in your seats for practices?
