Do the Steelheads still play in that cool little arena attached to a hotel?

I didn't remember as it was ~2012, but my wife remembered and looked it up and yes, it's attached to the Grove Plaza. I remember it was a small, fun arena. I also liked the Knitting Factory concert venue nearby - saw many bands there. Boise was a nice retreat from Mountain Home where I was stationed.

In 2010 we did production rehearsals for a tour at the Boise State basketball arena and we stayed at that hotel. I got to go to a couple of Steelhead playoff games while we were there.

Well the season has ended for the Swamp Rabbits and while it started out ok several long losing streaks during the middle of the season ended any hope of them participating in this years playoffs.
They finished in 13th of 14 teams in the East division with a 27-37-8 for 62 points.
The season was one of transition starting as a smaller faster skilled team that would start fast but then wilt in the later periods against the larger more physical teams.
So as the season wore on there was a lot of turnover as they looked to put together a better team going forward.
Even though the record was not what we hoped my wife and I enjoyed the games and have renewed our season tickets for next season.
At the season end fan appreciation game they opened up early for the season ticket holders for a pregame lunch and a signing session with the players. I was able to pickup a couple of the black warm-up jerseys as well as 2 signed game used sticks.

I'd love to get my hands on some Swamp Rabbit merch. But paying USD and having it shipped up north just isn't palatable. Having trouble finding online stores that have merch north of the border.
I saw a guy wearing a Swamp Rabbit hoodie at my gym. Turns out he refereed down there. He was surprised I knew their affiliation.

Later in the year as they get ready to start the new season contract me and I'll see what is available and the pricing and I can hook you up. Being a season ticket holder I can get a10% discount on gear.I'd love to get my hands on some Swamp Rabbit merch. But paying USD and having it shipped up north just isn't palatable.

I live 2 hours away from Greenville and could keep an eye out, but if you're in Canada holy sh*t shipping has become expensive.
