User Reviews for Mellon Arena

3 Star Rating: Average

08/20/2003 Posted by utah

I saw a Pearl Jam concert at Mellon Arena in April of 2003. this place is too outdated for a concert let alone a sporting event. the halls in the concourse are so small you need to watch where you walk to avoid running into to someone. if you want to grab a soda or a beer it takes forever. this Arena needs to be torn down or rebuilt b/c it is lacking in many areas. Mario Lemieux has stated the he will move the Penguins NHL Franchise unless a new Arena is built.

Cons: parking, concessions

Editor's Review

The names read like a who's who of the entertainment century: Sinatra, Elvis, the Beatles, Lemieux, Springsteen, Jagger, Garth, Jagr, Van Damme...just kidding.  See the full editorial review.
