  • We brought our family to a basketball game here. It was very well orchestrated. They had people directing the cars where to go. They had busses buying people to and from parking garages. The facilities are very nice and well kept. The prices on food and drinks aren't bad. The staff was friendly and accommodating. I would go here again for an event.
  • My happy place is the Dean E. Smith Center. It's even better when the Tar Heels win. We take the "Tar Heel Express" to the games, front door delivery. It's always clean in the seats/aisles upon arrival. The restrooms are very clean with plenty of TP and soap for hand washing. The concession areas appear to be clean as well from this fan's point of view. I've been going to the "Dean Dome" for years with no qualms about taking my grandchildren. I am waiting to take my great-grandchildren as soon as they're old enough and their mother will agree.
