Four awesome seats in Section 107, Row B! For Stars games, that's one row from the glass at center ice, right next to the opposing team's penalty box. At Mav's games, the seats are on the floor - close enough to the action to duck for cover when Nowitzki flies out of bounds! Platinum parking included for both events.
