1) Arena looks very much like Nashville's. One girl thought it held 15,000. (How much does Sommet hold, Laura?) Only a main crowd level and the upper box/VIP seats level though.

2) Fans standing to cheer after a goal-otherwise they pretty much sit and are quiet, except for the occasional horn blowing (which I thought sounded like a duck call =)

3) National anthem time. They played against a team from Kazakhstan so we heard both anthems. You can see the mascot; Yaroslavl bear.

4) drum line-led all of the "chants"
