Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum Reviews
Rated out of 5
We came to the Dino Experience with our son. We had a good time. One star off for overpriced parking $27 if you pay with the card. For a family event it's very expensive on top of the tickets. NYC is Def pushing families out with pricey events and costly parking. When it comes to the dinossour experience we loved it. Raptor show was pretty cool.

Very nice place to go for sports. We've been watching the Riptide lacrosse game tonight and had a great time. They even have an outdoor smoking section, unlike most other public places nowadays. The food was good as well. Very nice atmosphere and a happy crowd.

Had a great time visiting for the hot wheels monster truck show with my 5 year old son and my father in law. The venue was clean, safe, and convenient. It was pretty outrageous that they charged $35 for parking though. If you don’t want to pay, what will you do? Just walk half a mile?
