Kings' new arena doesn't have cupholders on upper level
The Sacramento Kings have invested a lot of money into making their new arena the "most connected" in the world, with a recent report indicating that cost estimates have come in significantly higher than previously anticipated.
There is one thing Golden 1 Center won't have, though: cupholders on the upper level.
@theAdam916 Correct. Upper level seats do not come with cup holders.

Needless to say, fans aren't happy about the lack of cupholders, and made their feelings known on Twitter:
Why.#CupholderGate

This is the most @SacramentoKings move ever: A brand new "world class" arena with 40-ft hangar doors, but no cupholders in the upper deck. https://t.co/0h1laGOqmE

My daughter's car seat has a clip on cup holder. Maybe I can put it on the seat in front of me since I'm upper level @Golden1Center 😁

@theAdam916 @Golden1Center I can already imagine how many times someone's going to spill beer on the head of the person in front of them....

@Golden1Center @cgkings are you kidding me? A state of the art arena and no cup holders? Please fix this.

@Golden1Center For how amazing this arena is... you couldn't include cup holders?

@Golden1Center released statement on CupHolders: 2nd level people can't handle cup holders cause they couldn't handle paying for 1st level
