I immediately got FOMO after seeing the Canes twitter page post a link to tickets for game 6. After seeing the boys rally back in game 4 & 5 I just felt I had to be there to support them as a Raleigh native. So 2 tickets and $626 later I will be sitting in section 326 (I previously only attended regular season game against Calgary in 2022 in Club seat section 201 and a preseason GA game). What should I expect? How are playoff games for fans? Are Rangers fans atrocious?

I wouldn’t even engage rangers fans at this point considering their behavior last game. Just straight ignore them.
Be loud
Don’t settle for BBQ nachos on the ground floor the stands up stairs usually have shorter lines and move faster. Cheerwine slushies are in the markets on the ground level. Don’t buy into the garbage from the NY fans they won’t shut up they just want your attention
Whatever happens don’t engage with opposing fans. Not worth it.
Tell any Rags fans you see that “we saw you walk out of your house early, don’t think you’re welcome in ours”
Congrats! Payoff hockey is on a whole other level. These teams are very close and it can very easily come down to our boys morale. Rags fans are annoying enough to try their own chants at OUR ice. You remind them it’s OUR ice. The moment they start, chant over them, counter it, do whatever you can to drown them out no matter what the score is. We’ve proven we can come back and take the lead in the final minutes! Let the team know you got their back to keep them in the game.
Massive Tip: get parking now through ParkWhiz. Shiz goes up to like $50 on gameday
Go down to the ice for warm ups; grab a Storm Brew; BE LOUD AS FUCK!
You’re going to be amazed at the sound. It’s truly astoundingly loud in there.
hope you don’t need to hear on friday.
Tip #1 – don’t give away your exact seat info… lol
Ignore the Bitch Yankees fans
Bathroom lines are insane during the playoffs. Go to the bathroom during the last tv timeout of the period (inside 5 mins; look for the red light between the penalty boxes to go on after a stoppage, that’s your signal since you won’t recognize the chime).
Rest your voice ahead of it. You’re gonna need it. The first playoff game I went to, I stood for a large portion of the game and was definitely hoarse afterwards.
Ignore the opposing fans, the rags like to sip on verbal juice boxes the whole game.
Get in early and get to your seats well before the “7PM” start time. Playoff video intro is long and well worth the watch.
Bring earplugs .. seriously. The dB levels get above 115 at times.
bbq sandwich and ignore the rangers fans.
Same boat here buddy, let’s get it!
Yes, Ranger fans are atrocious. And there will unfortunately be LOTS of them in our barn tomorrow.
Bring earplugs just in case. If you don’t use them, you might have someone sitting near you sincerely overwhelmed just by the sheer volume of everything.
