$6 million lower bowl reno added a bunch of suites and theatre seats - though the black throws off the aesthetic symmetry a bit.

No better view than row 1 upper deck at Redbird Arena.

Perfect hoops arena in a lot of ways. Now we just need to win and fill the place up.

Never been to a game at Redbird Arena or the Illinois State campus (I've been to the Creighton, Wichita St, Drake, and UNI campuses before, in addition to Missouri State obviously). I have a lot of family in Illinois and I may have to add it to my list of places to visit on the road. Looks like a great place to watch some basketball.

Been to Redbird Arena a number of times over the years; always thought it was one of the better venues to view a game in the Valley and the improvements will simply add to that.

Nice improvements to an already nice arena. Agree it has great sight lines. MVC finally has SIU at IL St. on a Saturday. Hope to make it there this year.

Redbird Arena is trash.

Seeing the rafters in the bottom pic reminded me of seeing Tommy Lee up there drumming around 1990 or so when Motley Crew visited Redbird Arena.

Yes...March 1990. Can't believe it's been almost 30 years!
