Prior to the game, the Bandettes greeted fans coming into the game and posed for photos and signed autographs for the fans.

During the game, the Bandettes kept the energy going with a lot of dance routines in the Zamboni entrance to the arena and really pumped it up with some outstanding dance performances at intermissions.

Postgame parties, unfortunately for younger fans, moved away from Pearl Street to the Cobblestone bar where fans over 21 could meet and mingle with the players and Bandettes. While the 21-and-over rule is a detriment, the fact that the players and Bandettes are a little more accessible than at Pearl Street may make up for it for some fans. Personally, I preferred the Pearl Street set-up because a league that markets itself as family-friendly would do a lot better to keep post-game parties the same way but everyone will have their own opinions and should check it out after a game this season.
