From the Penguins:
A Penguins playoff tradition is returning – with a new twist.
The popular “Big Screen,” which has enabled thousands of Pens fans to watch playoff games together outdoors since 2008, will return for the first round of the playoffs, starting Wednesday against the Tampa Bay Lightning. The 16’ x 9’ high definition screen will be located in the Civic Arena south parking lot along Centre Avenue, just across the street from CONSOL Energy Center. The board is presented by Trib Total Media.
Pre-game activities will be hosted by Mikey and Big Bob of 96.1 KISS FM. There also will be a dunk tank for Games 1 and 2, courtesy of First Niagara. For safety reasons, grills and alcoholic beverages are not permitted.
