If you haven’t heard, the Nashville Predators are facing off against the Anaheim Ducks in the Western Conference Final. They began as the 16th of 16 teams to enter the postseason, but announced their presence early with a sweep of the Chicago Blackhawks and continued their success, dispatching the St. Louis Blues in six games.
Along the way, the environment at Bridgestone Arena has developed a reputation for being loud, exciting, and really, really gold. After “On The Forecheck,” SBNation’s Predators’ blog, ventured to Raleigh for a game against the Hurricanes in March and shared their experience at PNC Arena, it seemed like an ideal time to check out their digs and see just how rowdy the famed Preds crowd could be.
