It mostly was. We ended up leaving after the second period because of some commitments my wife had today, which the late start (and apparently slow pace) didn’t help.

And the audio was bugging us - they always seem to struggle with that at the beginning of the season. I go to heavy metal concerts, so it’s not just that it was loud - some of the mic gain is just up way too much or something. In particular, the voice of the woman that does the in-game promotions really pops out the speakers, and it’s irritating - not that her voice is irritating (I assume, I haven’t talked to her in person), but something about the amplification really makes it hurt. But she’s not the only one - there was even a video they were playing that was being overdriven. I’m not sure why their audio people don’t address that immediately.
