Some of you may be lucky enough to have scored tickets at the CONSOL Energy Center, but for those of who you didn't, where are you watching the games?

The Penguins are broadcasting at least their first-round playoffs games this year against the Tampa Bay Lightning on a big screen in the Civic Arena south parking lot across the street from CONSOL. Typically, the screen gets a larger crowd during away games.

The Penguins-Lightning series, like all Stanley Cup playoffs pairings, is a best-of-seven contest. The Pens hosted the first two games, and the Lightning get the next two. Should more than four games be required, the series would then jump back-and-forth between Pittsburgh and Tampa Bay until one team wins a fourth game.

So tell us. Where are yinz watching these games?!
