I've been to Rupp (NCAA Tourney last year), Thompson Bowling Arena (Grew up there, saw Kansas play there and Memphis a couple times), and MTSU's arena (went this past year). Rupp and TBA were really nice, MTSU's arena was nothing special, but this is the first time they've had sustained success, so I wasn't expecting much.

We have two. Considering I couldn't tell you the last time we played DePaul, it was probably our old arena.

It was the first year in the new arena, the Liacourus Center

Checking the Internet, it was 12/13/97. Temple won 71-43. I then saw Temple at Villanova three nights later and Villanova won

No thanks.

I concur!

Think of the children. The children!

And the dance team.

Well that was quite a while ago and I was 9, so I dont remember it haha

We've since renovated the LC with a new video board, video ribbons and a fresh paint job with Owl Eyes.

If Bartow Arena was filled to capacity for every home game, it would be one of the top 10 arenas in the country. I remember games where it was filled, and when the crowd is there and is excited about the game, that place rocks like no other.

Agree with the GN!
