Minnesota Swarm

The seats were great and we had a blast! We even got a game ball!

Watching the Swarm play is SO much fun! Fast paced, great music, and Goal dancing. Great value!

This was our first Lacrosse game ever. We attend a lot of different games in a lot of different sports. High energy, constant action, maybe the most fun we've had at any sporting event. One issue that should be addressed- We bought 8 tickets in row 2 @ $50 each. Row one goes for $100 a seat. Because they don't check tickets a bunch of kids were allowed in row 1. I am all for kids getting close to the action. However, there was no parental control or control from the employees, so the kids stood up- blocking our view of the action at the far end almost the entire time. Not a smart way to get fans willing to pay for good seats to come back regardless how good the game is.

I was extremely suprized with the quality of the food offered. I will definetly do this package again and will look to eating at the buffet before more events. Game was very exciting both the crowd and the team were ready to go.

It was the first LaCrosse game my 6 yr old daughter and I had ever attended. We had a great time. It was helpful to have the announcers kind of explained the penalties as they happpened. I had very limited knowledge of the game prior to watching the Swarm and now I understand the game better.

The bench clearing brawl during Saturday's match was awesome! Lacrosse is a high paced, high scoring, exciting sport to watch! If you like hockey you'll love seeing the Swarm dominate. The announcers keep the fans engaged and informed on rules and penalties. They're a little heavy on 90's power rock, but it's still a great time for the money. I'm going to buy a hat and t-shirt from the gift shop; they've got great looking cheap team apparel. The only thing I don't get is the team logo it looks like a dragon fly and I don't think they swarm.

I didn't even realize Minnesota had a lacrosse team - this was a lucky find! My husband and I had a great time and look forward to going again soon.

What an awesome game. Great scoring! THREE fights, which you know is what you pay to see!!! ; ) it was a great date night!

The game it self was good. I'd like to see more healthy selections at the concession stands. I'd also like to see the text message board change more frequently. As well as the audience be included more. Have you thought about throwing shirts into the stands? or LAX balls? Why should only people w/ money be able to have a souvineer? The facility was clean.

Kind of boring. Not worth the price we paid. Game was slow and the announcer wasn't making clear what was going on.

My son decided that he wanted to bring a few friends to the Swarm game for his 8th birthday party...so I got 8 tickets with the "Me + 3" deal they have for the games. My sister and I went to the game with 6 boys in tow. It was so easy and so much fun! The boys were all completely absorbed in the game. They loved dancing after each goal the Swarm scored (12 times at that game). None of them got bored or wanted to leave. It was so entertaining and there was so much going on. My sister and I had a really fun time, too! It is very loud (which did not bother us, but I know some people are more sensitive to noise). But it is a great time for anyone. We saw families, groups of teenagers, college aged kids, adults. No one looked like they were bored! And it is a very reasonably priced night, compared to other sporting events in town.

My daughter is a huge lacrosse fan and breaking are tradition of going to a Wild game I decided to take her to a Minnesota swarm game. We had a great time it was very exciting they really get there fans into the the game. I cheered laughed and yelled a lot which was great fun. When the swarm scored the fans would do this crazy throwing of the arms up and down I laughed hysterically every time. I was much surprised and excited that there was very physical altercations between the teams. Overall my daughter and had a great time and will go again .

It was really fun, like always! The attendence seemed to be up so maybe people are catching on! Great time for everyone, kids, couples, groups....drinking, dancing and fighting....what more could you want! :)

This game was awesome. Of our group of 5, only 1 had been to a Swarm game before. The seats were great for a first game. It was a fast sport to pick up on and understand.

Awesome game - Really fun sport to watch live! More fun than the other major sports.

Regardless of your age or interest the Swarm is the best ticket in town for a great time. We regularly bring friends. It is a great sport that is fun to watch and the format is HIGLY entertaining.

Swarm games are very family friendly, fun for all ages and affordable. Everyone has fun!

I'm not sure why it took us so long to find ally go to a game because we all had a ton of fun. The announcer and all the music made it non- stop fun!

Very exciting and fun in comparison to any other pro or college sport venue in the twin cities

Highly reccommend checking out an NLL game! My first one and it was a great deal of fun!

The game at the Xcel energy center was great but the only bad part was where the seats were. They say every seat is a good seat there but not true. If you sit behind the players you should sit about 9 rows up so you can see over their heads. Pretty much missed the whole game because the people in front of us had to stand the whole time because they were so excited and the coaches had to be standing on chairs...not sure why. I would recommend if you want glass seats to sit opposite of the players or up more.

Great event. A huge 3rd quarter surge, but than a lack luster 4th quarter finish. Great seats, and Larry the Cable Guy was in attendance. All in all a great night!

I so enjoyed the entire experience - the fun interactions when there was a penalty, the game itself, the announcer, the awesome food - all of it. Need more ice cream choices.

It's really fun to go watch the Swarm play. The announcer get's the crowd into the game and make's a bzzzzzzzz sound for the Swarm entrance. I would recommend checking a game out if you like sports. I love Lacrosse and It reminds me of when I played Lacrosse in College. It's so much fun to play and as well as watch in person.

Loved the action and the game! The constant music drives me a bit crazy. I like to hear the sounds of the action but perhaps their language is a bit rowdy for the family audience. Love to see all the families attending and they did get into it.

Lots of action. from scoring, to fighting, to our awesome goalie.....everything rocked. We had so much fun, and will definitely go again!

I took my 10-year old son and two friends to the game. They had a blast. The crowd was so into it. I love how they crank the tunes during the action! We will be back soon.

Great game Saturday night - Swarm exceeded expectations along with Suitor possibly exceeding his own expectations! Too bad NY Bandits came off like poor sports.....Swarm had to stand tall in their house!

Really giving Lacrosse a bad rap with all the fighting. It is becomeing a fake game with the staged fights. Kids playing the game at the high school/grade school level are really being miss led on the principles of the game. Very involved in youth Lacrosse, and having to deal with thugs who think this is the way the game is played. Sad to see!!!

Great game, even thou the swarm lost. If you like hockey and football you will love box lacrosse. Talent level is very good since most of the players are from the major east coast power house teams like Hopkins, Syracuse, Maryland.

The game was a lot of fun! The promoters really involve the fans throughout the entire game!

I took my Godson (13), who plays lacrosse to this game. He had never been to a game, nor had I. He was so excited when we got there and I had jobclue what to expect. Just, fantastic is the best way to describe this. High energy GREAT fans, and a real "good time" I would highly recommend this to anybody that is even slightly curious. Great event, glad I gave it a shot! Seats were fantastic as well!

The Xcel is always a great venue and the Swarm are a great team to watch! We enjoy the sport, the hard hitting competition, the music, and the announcer. Great value for the family dollar!

surprisingly cheap seats only ten rows up right behind a goal. had a blast amd the swarm rock!

The excitement of watching the Swarm doesn't stop when the clock does. The action on the field between periods and prior to the game was entertaining and hilarious. Their support of local LaCrosse programs is fantastic and brings the game to the next level for the kids. The game was fast paced and exciting to watch and i would definately reccomend attending a game especially to those who play the sport.

Had a great time! The Swarm games are always so much fun even though we lost. It's a fun time for the whole family! The kids love the music, the dancing, the fighting....it has it all!

The game itself was fantastic. It's an excellent experience for the whole family. That said, this particular date was promoted as a double-header with the Minnesota Rollergirls match, and the delay between the end of the Swarm match and the start of the Rollergirls event left a bit to be desired. It turned into quite a late evening. And the view for the Rollergirls event was not as great as when they skate at Roy Wilkins Auditorium.

Had a great time. Look forward to becoming a season ticket holder. Only drawback of sitting in the the club level was we had to walk to the other side of arena to purchase a beverage or food. We'll never sit up there again. Go Swarm!

Awesome game! We had never been to a LaCrosse game before and would definitely recommend this to anyone. It's very action packed and keeps your attention!

all around good fun. loved the performance teams, loved the mascot game halftime...great sport, too.

Our first-ever pro Lacrosse match - who knew it was such a fast sport? The t-shirts saying the sport is like hockey with balls got it right! A good time

I had never watched lacrosse nor been to a game in person. It was so much fun! I am a huge hockey fan and lacrosse is very similar in some respects. It was very fast paced and the game play was easy to catch on to! I got tickets "on the glass" and it made the experience that much more memorable. By getting "on the glass" seating we received complimentary passes to the Ice Lodge where we got free water, soda, wine, and on tap beer. We also could enjoy free popcorn. there was other food available for purchase. The area is very nice and we really enjoyed that they had the MN Wild game on the radio so we could listen to them playing before taking our seats for the game to begin. The seats we had were right next to the Black Wolves penalty box! My boyfriend really enjoyed being able to playfully raze the players who were in the box! My boyfriend and I had a fantastic time! We plan to go to more MN Swarm games in the future!

I had so much fun. It was my first swarm game ever, and I already bought tickets for the next game! I definitely found my favorite sport to watch!

No program to be found with player names and positions, noise from announcers and music during play very annoying. Cost of souvenirs ridicules for this sport at this point in time. How about trying to build your brand before gouging your customers.

The only thing that I did not like was sitting with the band we were always getting up to let them in and out and the people behinds us were getting mad at us for getting up

It was a great game! Even though the swarm didn't win, the environment with all the fans was awesome!

Watching the Swarm play is an exciting experience. The atmosphere in the building and the interaction with the game is super fun.

Thoroughly enjoyed the Swarm game. I had not been to a game in years, and was impressed by the difference in attendance and audience participation. Great energy! Fun game to watch, especially with the come-from-behind win!

As Native Americans, our family took part in the pre-game activities. It was very meaningful to us. The game itself was so exciting--a real nail biter. There is a lot of positive energy surrounding the game and the people that attend. My grandsons idolize Miles Thompson! Definetly be there again!

ll in all this was a great experience for all. My wife, and 3 daughters went (ages 6, 18, and 20). The Swarm have such a warm and fun environment, and even the younger kids enjoy their time. Even though our team lost, they all talked about it for a couple days, so it is well worth it.

The game was entertaining. The environment is geared to a young crowd, e.g., constant, loud music and running commentary from the P.A. announcer. I would go again, although I can't imagine becoming very interested in the team's fortunes.

I took my 11 yr old son. He's starting to get interested in lacrosse so I got him some tickets for his birthday. We had soooooo much fun!!! They really get the fans involved. We both really enjoyed the game. We even stuck around after the game to get autographs. After playing over a 2 hour game the players were so friendly and willing to take photos and chat!! Had a great experience and will defiantly be going back next season!!

Brought my son (9), daughters (6,3) and husband to our first lacrosse game ever! Took a little time to understand the game, but the action and high scoring made the game fun! (Although they really need the red lights Luke hockey cause half the time I couldn't tell when the other team scored....there was no mistaking when we scored.). Super fun crowd and plenty of seating. Will say that the announcer was a bit annoying, but there are those that loved him...

Great game! The fans were supportive and very enthused!

Was a interesting game especially coming back from being 5 goals behind and then tying the game for overtime.

First time at a swarm game and brought my 8 yr old son who will be in his second year of lacrosse this upcoming summer. We had a great time he really enjoyed all the energy in the arena!! Was a blast

This was our first time to a Swarm game! We loved it. The crowd was awesome and rocking. The game was fast paced and a lot of fun to watch. The team played hard and we lost 13 to 14 but we have a great time and will go to another game. I recommend.

I love watching the swarm but was disappointed I didnt get to see a fight or watch them win

Tons of action. Kept me engaged the whole time for a first time lacrosse fan.

Even though Swarm lost, we had a fun family get-together.

Went to my very first Minnesota Swarm game! Even though we lost, we still had a BLAST! The entire game was family friendly, fun and exciting. I am going to recommend all of my friends take their families to a game too! They give away prizes randomly throughout the game, so stay in your seat! :-)

Love the MN Swarm games. Always a good time overall. Love the game play on the field with constant action and good hard play. A lot of entertainment between quarters and lots of interaction for the crowd. They have something for everyone of all ages.

I planned a family night at the Hive! My three children, ages 3, 15, and 19 and myself had a super time at the game. The fact that we won was icing on the cake!

Thats the first lacrosse game my family n i have see other than tv .was loud but thats part of the game. Hope to make it to a game next year.

Swarm games are always fun events! We were at a great game where we dominated the other team, so even better!

The Swarm were fantastic versus the Wings on Friday night. It was a fast-paced and fun game with a lot of action. I love Swarm games because they're exciting, and even when it's nasty outside, it's green and bright inside the Xcel Energy Center! I'm looking forward to Saturday night's game v. the Buffalo Bandits. Go Swarm!

$ for $ there is no better event in the twin cities. The games are action packed and exciting. If you sit in the stands at a game you will want to come back.

Absolutely fantastic; very alive and also action filled

I love a fast pace game with interaction between players. I was very pleased with the game and took friends and they had a good time also.

lots of fun. dancing after every goal...much more economical than a wild game
