The first event held in the new coliseum will be for Virginia Tech hockey games this weekend.

"It's really surreal," says Robyn Schon, general manager. "It's really hard to wrap my head around it because just three months ago or even 12 weeks. It was the 45 year old seats, the same look, and it looks like a brand new arena."

Schon says they'll be replacing the ice rink and scoreboard next.
