"Nationwide Arena, host to world-class events since 2000, is in need of major renovations, and the digital displays that SNA Displays installed helps provide a more modern-looking venue to our guests and players alike," Derek Smith, general manager for Nationwide Arena, said in the release.

"Having all digital assets within the bowl and above our entry doors contributes to an enhanced guest experience that is common in new arenas," Smith added in the release. "Our team tunnel is the best in sports and allows us greater flexibility with messaging and content. We are extremely happy with the process in working with SNA on design along with AJP and OSPORTS, and the end result is the collaborative effort of a great team on this important project."
