Gwinnett Gladiators


Looking for something fun for the whole family?
Why not attend a hockey game at the Gwinnett Arena which is home to the Gwinnett Gladiators!

The Gladiators have called Gwinnett home for the past decade. The games are always action-packed, intense and leave you hanging on the edge of your seat. We attended a home game last Saturday and were SO excited to see everyone in the crowd completely in a trance! These were die hard fans.. my toddler was even hooting and hollering each time we scored!

I would say our favorite part was the constant effort to keep the crowd involved. During breaks the staff would go around shooting off t-shirts and they also offered the Kroger "Chuck A Puck" to win a a $700 gift card shopping spree!!! We caught up with Maximus the Lion, Mascot in the hallway even though he wasn't able to stop and pose for picture... the look on my sons face when he walked by was priceless!

We attended during the tenth annual Teddy Bear Toss, that benefits many children’s charities. Many fans brought stuffed animals to throw onto the ice after the Gladiators scored the first goal. These stuffed animals will be distributed to many Children charities throughout Atlanta. The Gladiators take part in many theme nights throughout the year including, Pink in the Rink which is the Gladiators highest annual fundraising effort.

So if you feel like getting out with the girls, the guys, the kids or just a date night.. this is the place to go! Be prepared time flies when you are having fun..
