San Jose Barracuda

6 row seats on the goal line-$20 each. 3 beers and 3 hotdogs $9 total and $15 parking. Talk about affordable!

This was our first Barracuda game, and surely won't be our last! Really fun, affordable, hockey with a great AHL team. Intermission activities were different and lots of fun with proceeds going to Jr. Sharks. Frenzy was great, as is his fun zone. Only downside was only Classic Shack for food, but I now know we can bring our own dinner in if we choose! Very nice accommodation.

Great affordable fun family Hockey event. Looking forward to the next game!

Had a great time at the game. It was sad to see so few people and so many consessions closed. We sat right on the glass, figured we could never afford to see The Sharks that close so opted for the next best with the Barracuda's! It was a thrill but I noticed something I feel is really important. I observed many many times player #12 Meier (?) playing with his mouth guard to one side and his tongue sticking pretty far out the other side of his mouth. He's going to bite the damn thing off! I do the same thing when I concentrate so I get it but I'm an artist and in no danger of biting my tongue off. Please make him stop it! Thanks, Fan for life Dawn

SAP Center is a great facility to watch hockey. The Barracuda are fun to watch.

I've been a fan of the sj sharks and excited when the barracudas came to San Jose. The atmosphere is great and the team plays hard. Really enjoyed it and will be coming back to more games. Worth the hour drive. Hopefully more people start attending.

It was a very fun game, I even think I converted two non-hockey fans! The event was also well organized and buying tickets through ticket master was easy and could keep the electronic tickets on my smart phones.

Great game, good environment,and great ticket prices. Up close viewing. Cant beat the value for a hockey game.

A very friendly and family oriented. Lots of fun and great atmosphere for anyone wanting to have a fun a relaxing time.

For anyone looking to watch good hockey on a budget, SJ Barracuda games are definitely a must. Although the stands were relatively empty (500 people or less), the late move to SJ by the AHL probably had something to do with it. As a family of four, it's a sizable investment to attend SJ Sharks games. The Barracudas offer an affordable and fun alternative. Good hockey with some players moving back and forth with their respective NHL teams. There is definitely a minor league feel to the game, but that actually makes it more fun. We have a three year old who could care less about crowd size or NHL level game entertainment. He loved attending and was into the game and skating. I am sure subsequent seasons will begin to fill up and find a fan base when people realize the level of skating and the affordability. Definitely recommended.

My husband and I brought my brother and two nephews to an afternoon game, Barracudas vs Checkers. Very sparsely attended, but those that were there were enthusiastic. Maybe the Sharks game that evening kept some people away? Venue is more intimate than the Verizon Center in DC, and we liked that. The food options were better, too, though for the afternoon most of them were closed. And the Barracudas won in a shootout, which made for a very exciting game.

Great time for a family at a reasonable cost!! A must for any hockey or sports fan!

Had a great time at the game watching some future San Jose Sharks stars

The intensity of this level of hockey is much less aggressive and not as sharp as NHL - but that's the whole point. You get great seats at a great price to watch up and comings and folks who just love to play hockey. The announcers also seem to be up and coming and you might have some akward silences - but you're there to watch hockey. Definitely recommend!

Attended our first Barracuda Hockey game on Saturday in the Shark Tank. Being a Shark fan for 25 years wasn't expecting to a "professional hockey game", but was pleasantly surprised at the aggressive and fast pace play of the game. The Barracuda's are a young and fast team and will probably be one of the best in their league. I am now a Barracuda Fan! I really enjoyed that the Barracuda's focused on their young kids fan base by having numerous young kids activities. Great Family outing!!

I paid $26.00 for what was probably the worst seat in the arena. I know there were tickets available for about $12.00. Be careful what you pay for which seat at these events. The hockey was very entertaining. The concessions were the same prices you'd pay at an NHL game.

Enjoyed the game with some exceptions: 1. concession stands were not open except for a few. This limited what one could buy. 2. Increase of single game seats over half or full season pricing a bit high. Makes one question whether it is worth paying $36 for a $21 seat. 3. However, in spite of cost, it is geared for families .... lots of kids were there with camera/big screen on them at times. They had fun, and that is good. 4. It was a fun day all in all. 6000 people attended the game. That is fantastic. I will probably go again.

If you like hockey you really should go see them . They are a good team, great environment. The ticket prices aren't so bad . The seating is great. I recommended any one who plays hockey or likes hockey should get tickets to them.

Wow, the food is expensive. TIcket prices I guess are ok, but the food is a complete rip off.

What a great venue. Very action packed. Great fast pace. Refs a little C.S. on some calls and neglected some obvious ones. Overall, I'll be back for more.

The AHL is very family friendly (and affordable in the upper deck). And sitting on the glass (which is not necessarily family affordable) was a once in a lifetime experience.

Despite losing game 1 the experience was great, especially for families and Sharks fans interested in future player development. Great hockey, easy in and out, great prices, concessions and warm family atmosphere. Bravo!

I love hockey and bay area sports. The Barracuda put on a good show. The announcer is awful to listen to though. Also SAP or Sharks Sports and Entertainment / SVSE needs to go back to the previous entry system. It's ridiculous and the fans are furious with you. Must fix!

Very affordable, fun time for the whole family!! Welcome to San Jose, Barracuda!! We look forward to spending many more evenings at The Tank!! :)

Great family fun and exciting to support future Shark's...

I did not have children with me. There were many families in the audience. San Jose Sharks and Barracuda organizations have many activities for kids. Kids were having a ball!

Not the best fans in hockey, actually a bit disrespectful and not very knowledgeable... but it is hockey, it is the Sharx and 'Cudas, which are fun. Will always go to games and recommend supporting the teams here but be prepared to be disappointed if you are a true fan of the sport.

Overall venue was nice. Getting dropped off/picked up by Uber a little difficult. $2 beer $1 hot dog was a success. Nice to be able to sit up close to the glass without paying the big bucks like for Sharks game :)

This was our 3rd Barracudas game and won t be our last. For the price you can t beat it. The team seems to play well when we re there, the staff are nice and the tickets are super reasonable for what you get. We were right behind the glass! Most likely we ll be getting season tickets for next season so yeah, we enjoy going.

Best for hockey loving people.but fun for little kids too,lots of games durinv breaks

Not enough time for my kids to throw there pucks into the ice, I went to give back the pucks ( because I wasn t going to take the bag of pucks home) I was met with a rude employee that even yelled at me, I did get upset but I just walked away, even other guests just looked at that guy in disbelief, but at the end I was able to return pucks, but I m just glad my older kids didn t see the way I was treated unfortunately only my youngest witness it. I will only attend regular Sharks games, employees there are much nicer and helpful when asked a question.

Tons of fun! My nephew has been asking me to take him to a Sharks game for a while now, but fearing it might be too loud and intense for him, my brother in laws and I brought him to a Barracudas game and I was not disappointed! The seating is fantastic. There s no bad seat at SAP, but being able to sit lower level for so cheap is fantastic. Plus between periods, the fun little kid s play zone and photo station were en unexpected bonus that made for an extra fun time. Will definitely be attending more games!

Having the dogs at the game was one of the best times I ever had at a game. I did not bring a dog but there were a lot of them. They were mostly well behaved, ( there were a few accidents in the lobby. LOL) and they had a great time. Every time the puck was in play some of the dogs would start barking like over the top hockey fans. You could tell they wanted to play, too. The bobblehead is extra cute. Vlasic and all three of his dogs had bobble heads. Vlasic was there with two of his dogs to drop the puck. Perfect! And they won 5-3. I would definitely buy tickets again

They crushed the stars! 6-1, can't ask for more from a game.

We always have a great time at the Cuda's games. Had great specials that night.

The SAP Center is a decent enough venue for watching hockey. It's biggest drawback is that it is usually filled - as it was on this night - with whiny, poorly-informed "fans" who seem as interested in trying to demean the visiting team and its fans as they are in watching the game.

My family and I are huge fans of the Sharks and decided to go to our first Barracuda game. As we entered the arena, an usher noticed my son's service dog (yes, an actual real service dog) and offered to take us to our seats. I was extremely pleased since this was our first time having 1st row seats (the tickets were a gift) and I didn't know how to get there. Normally when we attend a Sharks game, we are in the disabled seats and although a staff member offers to usher us to our seats, we normally and politely decline. We had such an amazing time at the game and all of the fans and SAP staff were very polite and courteous. No one attempted to distract my son's service dog and our seats were very roomy. All of the surrounding fans were very kind and understanding of my Autistic son. Thank you. After the game we were asked if we wanted to meet some of the players and, of course, my kids said an enthusiastic yes! We were told to head over to the loading dock area and then up the stairs to meet the Barracudas. Sure enough, the players trickled out of the locker room and greeted my children. All of the players were very nice and signed all of the fans' jerseys. It was very refreshing to see players take the time to greet their fans. Thank you to the SAP Center and the players of the Barracudas for giving us a night to remember. I also want to thank Griffins player, Colin Campbell # 45 for giving us your hockey stick. We are forever grateful.

Our first hokey game. Action packed. Loved every minute. Looking forward to a pro game.

Love the game..Will come again!!!! GO CUDA!!!! .......

This was a well-played AHL Calder Cup Playoff game between two capable teams. The venue (SAP Center) was no better and no worse than it always is for watching ice hockey. The SJ Barracuda fans were virtually indistinguishable from the fans that show up for SJ Sharks games - not particularly knowledgeable about hockey or its rules, but petulant and loud-mouthed while complaining about imagined infractions against their preferred team.

The 'Cuda's played a great game! All the player's played so well, both on offense and defense. Too bad they don't get more press. The deserve it!

Great experience center ice tickets for $27, 2 dollar beer one dollar hotdogs lots of fub

Than going to the last game of the series and your team's star player (Ryan Carpenter) wins the series in OT on a short handed goal during a penalty kill!

Had a great time with kid food cheap and good people all around

San Jose Barracuda games are a fun and exciting family friendly experience. The San Jose Barracuda Team is excellent and talented.

Took my 6 year old nephew and he walked out saying auntie this was more fun than the sharks game he truly enjoyed it!!!

Love coming to the Barracuda games. Quality hockey and great seats for reasonable prices. I think we missed out on the t-shirt giveaway although we were there when the doors opened. We came in on the parking lot side of the arena - maybe they were only on the street side? Regardless, we had a ball and will be back!

I really enjoyed the game. I've followed the Sharks, and been to a few games per year for about a decade now. This was my first Barracuda game and it was great. General admission was really cool, and allowed us (4 adults and 4 kids ages 2-7) to have plenty of room. The big down side was that hardly any of the drink and snack places were\u200b open. We got family packs, which come with a hot dog, "beverage", and chips. I had to stand in line for almost 30 minutes to pick them up. Yet, many food places were closed. Also, no veggie dogs. I had to decline the beverages because there were only drinks with sugar or artificial sweetener available. I asked if they could just put ice water in the cups, and was told no!! They even have Kaiser healthy picks choices, but you can't get a cup of water or seltzer. Quite shocking.

SJ Barracuda game was a blast. My kids and I enjoyed it very much especially at the tank.

Went to our first Barracuda game. Great game with great seats. We were 10 rows in section 101.

Watching the Barracuda is great fun. Crowd and the arena are great - you usually can get close. My challenge is with the SAP Center. Even though its a small venue, the lines for vendors were TOO long. Having to take 30 min to get a simple bottle of water was not acceptable. I hope in time for my next game they increase the counter coverage.

The game was fun for my family. The staff was nice, but doors opened only 45 min prior to puck drop. The website say 75 minutes. We made the best of it and played at the playground at the park across the street.

Had purchased the tickets for my son for Christmas, 2nd row seats off to the side of the goal. We had a great time! All the action of the game was right in front of us when the players were in our end. Loved the puck banging off the boards, the faces getting smooshed on the glass and being able to hear the players yell at each other. Would definitely recommend this event for anyone who loves hockey but may not want to or be able to afford Sharks tickets. All the same action for a fraction of the cost. Definitely family friendly and fun.

Had a great time, sitting on the window was a new experiene for me and I may just do it again :) Love the Baraccudas and the Sharks :)

It was a great experience! My first Cuda game! We had an amazing view of the rink, the food court lines were short. We took pictures with Jerzy and got a tshirt from him!!
