I love the Mann center, I have one serious issue though, I was in the handicap seating area because I have asthma from covid, and the new smoke machine blasted me right in the face, and kept blasting smoke out right at face level into the people's faces. I was tempted to climb up on the machine and aim that smoke release head up so that it would blow the smoke straight up instead of right in people's faces... it's surely a hazard to people's health, whatever it blows out... I'm not really sure where I should direct this comment, I'm hoping that someone from the venue reads these comments... I had a great experience other than that on Sunday night, the staff is excellent, the service is excellent, and the venue is excellent!!! Hopefully this will be addressed by the venue managers and I'm looking forward to coming back for several years... Thanks!
