To begin with, people should be versed with the temperature of these arenas which is usually chilly as a result of the iced playing ground; moreover, other than this its never too cold to drag heavy outwears in the match. Having understood this, its easier to put on a comfortable outfit that does not reveal too much as people may mock you for seeming as a attention seeker.

Usually, the nearer one is to the ice surface, the heavier they should be dressed unless one is active heckling and jumping around which is stimulation enough to heat them up. As a tradition, it is known that when one is hit by the puck they can keep it; however, if one does not want exposure to this risks maybe they should reserve higher seats.

It is recommended that one wears comfortable shoes preferably sneakers in order to avoid struggling to climb up the steps and going down the staircases; hence, wearing high heels is discouraged. Moreover, tank tops and short are also some of the outwears that should not be worn during these matches as one maybe perceived as a terrible show off.

To most people who understand what the game is all about, having a jean, a t-shirt and perhaps a sweater is all they need to enjoy the match. In some rare cases, one may have to put on a coat or a heavier sweater and sometimes even a scarf so as to keep off the chilliness and avoid catching a cold. However, with the game happening indoors in an arena and at night, wearing sunglasses is never an option.

In support of the team one is cheering for, one can put on the jersey or just a cap which puts one in the spirit; moreover, one can just dress in colors that matches with that of their favorite team. This brings up the spirit of togetherness which is a motivation to players that makes them perform better to avoid disappointing their fans.

In addition, given that one is seating amongst a crowd getting warm quickly is inevitable and one should get a little lose just enough to be comfortable. However, it all depends with you; if you get cold easily maybe you should consider carrying with you a coat or a heavier sweater as one can never enjoy the game while freezing.
