>venue of WCW World War 3 and numerous nitros>last event was TNA Slammiversary 2009
>>16277347i think SummerSlam 93 or 94 was there as well, had my high school graduation ceremony there too, beautiful building
>>16277373Fuck, you're right. That was when Luger won by count out against Yoko. Coincidentally, Luger beat Hogan at the same venue in '97 to win the WCW title on an episode of Nitro.
It also hosted the legendary Malice at the Palace match between the Pistons, Pacers, and fans. >At its closure, the Palace was still in top condition as a sporting and concert venue,[72] but its location in a northern suburb, far from the city center, conflicted with a trend of "walkable urbanism" that the Pistons thought would grow their fanbase.[75] It was speculated that the Palace would likely end up being demolished, and the site would be redeveloped to accommodate a possible new auto supplier headquarters and research and development parks.[76]I hate this fucking capitalist world.
>>16277605>Broke ground - June 7, 1986>Opened - August 13, 1988>Closed - October 12, 2017>Demolished - July 11, 2020What a waste. There are arenas still operating that are like 100 years old and this perfectly fine one lasted less than 35 and that includes construction and demolition.
>>16277347i saw korn there in 2000
>>16277373Who gives a flying fuck where you had your graduation

How come the US seems to go through stadiums/arenas so often?Is it because a lot of them get finance from the taxpayer?Here in Yurop a stadium will usually get renovated over and over and be used for a hundred years or more.
>>16278673It's a racket, look up what's going on with Kansas CIty & the Chiefs/Royals stadium situations. The voters of Jackson County, MO told them to fuck off with their terrible plan & now the Royals are basically going around suburb to suburb trying to get a completely free stadium. Corrupt as fuck.
>>16277347I miss the palace
>>16277347Maple Leaf Gardens, was a kino venue. Although if you were a kid, you would likely get raped by the staff and (then owner) Harold Ballard in some freemasonry ritual.
