Enjoyed the show but would have been better if they didn't change the venue from the arena to the very run down crappy Theater. Changed our seating and had no option in seats. Handicapped people were blocking the entrances to the aisles and you had to step over rows to get to your seats. this place is a fire hazard. how this place passes code I sure don't know!!!" - **Rating**: 5/5 - **By**: Bernie Chase - **Event**: Greg Gutfeld and Tom Shillue at Peoria Civic Center - Carver Arena at Peoria Civic Center - Carver Arena - **Date**: 2026-10-18 21:27:38 - **User Avatar**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events8/banners/570a0b1b75c49d706ec9195d84eb6f4c9902be7d5ea5eaab43e33acf4d6bfe1a-rimg-w300-h300-dcc8b8a8-gmir?v=1791864005 - **Review**: "love this event!" - **Rating**: 5/5 - **By**: Emily Rogan - **Event**: ??
