Miami Heat launches fan zone on 300 level
The Miami Heat and Kumho Tire USA are adding to the activities for fans at AmericanAirlines Arena.
The Kumho Fan Zone opened on AmericanAirlines Arena’s 300 level last week during the team’s game against the New York Knicks. A gaming wall includes four 60-inch HD-TVs, Sony Playstation and game software. Fans can compete with one another and participate in contests and giveaways. Kumho will also offer special snack deals at concession stands.
