Text Comcast Arena

Folks who have a problem or concern at Comcast Arena at Everett, can now text building management during events.

The system fits with the arena’s “How You Doin’?” customer service philosophy.

Fans will be able to interact with management workers on duty at any event. The system is provided by In Stadium Solutions, a software company that is used at more than 100 venues nationwide, and was used at the 2010 NBA Finals and two Super Bowls.

Apparently it isn’t designed to place beer or nacho orders.
