UCLA basketball: A virtual preview of the new Pauley Pavilion
The renovated Pauley Pavilion won't open for another 17 months, but fans can get a virtual preview of the finished building's interior by clicking here.
The coolest feature of this interactive display is that it allows you to see price points for different areas inside the arena, as well as 360-degree views from those respective spots. And if you wanted to compare the view from, say, midcourt in the lower bowl ($1,198 per season ticket plus a $3,200 donation to the UCLA athletic department per seat) to the corner in the upper deck ($624 per season ticket, with no donation required), you can view two locations at once.
As seats are purchased, the locations will change colors to let online visitors know they are no longer available. Visitors can also use an instant messaging function to ask questions and receive answers from ticket-office employees in real time from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday.
