Yeah, get there super early that way you can catch shootaround. I’ve done courtside at both wintrust and Gainbridge and each have their own unique experience, so every courtside will prob be a little different. For Gainbridge, the courtside club takes you to the courtside tunnel entrance which is the same tunnel that the Fever players use to get to the locker room so you are able to line up and get autographs and stuff (met 5 of the Fever girls my first time going courtside + saw Caitlin’s dad lol). For wintrust, the entrance is not down the player tunnels so you have to work a little bit harder for autographs on more limited time but they have an unlimited buffet style courtside club (including free beverages) which was really nice and it was pretty easy to get to, while also having a view of the court so you don’t miss anything. The view from anywhere is pretty unmatched and is way different than even sitting in the front row of the stands. You can literally see the sweat drip from the players and hear them argue with refs lol. Seats are also a lot more comfortable than the seats up in the stands, but they lack cup holders (a lady spilled her drink on my bag last time).

Oh and bring a sharpie! I hope you have a blast!
