Parking, Entrance, Seating, and Exit Instructions for Pep Clubs, Bands, and Students.
To aid in the movement and management of the crowd during the state basketball tournament, the following plan has been established for the entrance, seating, and exit of students attending games. We ask your cooperation in informing your students of the correct entrances, the seating area they are to use, the
policy concerning cheerleaders and the area behind the team benches, and the exit procedures.
Pinnacle Bank Arena. Fans can enter using the main entrance on the south side of PBA or the Northeast upper entrance just over the walking bridge. Buses carrying bands or students can drop off on the south side of PBA (Canopy Street) and park in the Festival Parking located north of PBA.
Students will be seated in the north and south ends of the PBA. The home team
students will be seated in Section 101 (north). Visiting team students will be seated in Section 112 (south).
For all games, students from the designated home team will go to the north
concourse and students from the visiting team will go to the south concourse
area to wait for the game in progress to be over so they can occupy those seats.
Students in Section 112 (visitor) will exit down and out by Huskers Authentic,
students in Section 101 (home) will exit to the top.
Again this year, Game 1 - the home team band will be located in Section 122 with the visiting team band located in Section 111. Game 2 – the home team band will be located in Section 102 with the visiting team band located in Section 113. This process will continue to alternate each game.
Spectators from the designated home team will be seated on the East Side in Sections 106 and 107 of PBA, with the spectators from the visiting team seated on the West Side in Sections 117 and 118. The students and adult spectators will be moved to other seating areas following the completion of each game.
Spectators are not to stand or hit the chairs or chair backs. Schools can be held
liable for damage to the seats.
Devaney Sports Center. Enter the fairgrounds by use of the 14th or 27th Street entrances. Parking for team buses will be on the north side of the Devaney Sports Center on ‘N’ Street.

For all games, students from the designated home team will go to the Northwest
Corner concourse level. Students from the designated visiting team go to the
Southeast Corner concourse level. It is suggested that schools communicate with their students as to when school administrators will be available.
NEW FOR 2022 – For all games, the band of the home team will be seated in the A-9. The band of the visiting team will be seated in the A-6. Bands will be escorted to the South arena staging areas so they may get set up as quickly as possible when the floor is cleared from the previous game.
NEW FOR 2022 – Spectators from the designated home team will be seated on the North side of the Devaney Sports Center in Sections A-13, A-14, B-15, B-16.
