I've attended a couple sporting events at the Rose Garden: Game 6 of the Lakers/Blazers playoffs in 1998, preseason NHL hockey between the Wild and Sharks, will be attending the Tour of Olympic Gymnastic Champions next weekend. The first two games we sat up in the 300 section of the arena, and I can honestly say there isn't a bad seat in the house. The atmosphere is great at home Blazer games! Likewise, I have heard good things about the WNBA Fire games. Unfortunately, I haven't seen a music concert there yet to report on the acoustics, but I would assume it's like any other 18,000 seat indoor arena. One interesting concert setup they have is the Theater of the Clouds--basically they cordon off half of the arena either lengthwise or widthwise to create a more intimate show atmosphere. If you're interested in big name live music and sports, I would recommend catching an event at the Rose Garden.
