Ice hockey match between the Pittsburgh Penguins and the Utah Mammoth at PPG Paints Arena.
The Pittsburgh Penguins take on the Utah Mammoth at PPG Paints Arena on Thursday, October 29. It's a regular-season matchup, so the Penguins are playing at home in the heart of downtown Pittsburgh.
If you're not a die-hard hockey fan, here's the basic setup: the Penguins are our local team, and the Utah Mammoth are coming in from out of town. The game is played on ice, with each team fielding six players at a time—a goalie and five skaters—working to put the puck in the other team's net. It's a fast game, and when it's played at the Arena, the energy usually builds as the game goes on.
The game runs from 7 PM to 8:30 PM, so you've got a full evening of hockey. If you're planning to head in early, it's worth remembering that PPG Paints Arena is right at 1001 Fifth Ave, in the middle of the downtown area, so you'll have plenty of options for dinner or drinks before the puck drops. Between the 7 PM start and the 8:30 PM finish, you're looking at about an hour and a half of action.
