Today, a group of Grrrowl fans headed to Gwinnett, GA to watch their Grrrowl vs. the Gwinnett Gladiators.  As the saying goes, "what happens on a road trip, stays on the road trip."  However, here are a few notes about the trip and game at the Gwinnett Center:

- Gwinnett Center is a new (two or three year old) arena.  It has a nice, wide, carpeted concourse.

- There was no center scoreboard but goals, penalties, and SOG were posted on boards on the side of the arena.

- Fans were hospitable and friendly.

- Couldn't see seating section numbers when sitting in the seats.  The reason I say this, is they made announcements about a person or section 109 (per se), but one didn't know where that was.

- The Canadian Anthem was not sung.

- During one check, a pane of the plexiglass got loose and fell off.  Maintenance had to be called to put it back in.
