Covers MUST be properly replaced at the end of each period and no lens hoods may be used at these positions. - Four at the top of the lower bowl stairs but behind the luxury box suite glass so you don’t block spectator views (Sections 109/110, 110/111, 119/120 and 120/121) - Second level centre ice TV camera deck chairs when available.
