Kawana Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 That looks like good old Hara Arena. I had no idea that a toughman was going on over there... Weird that I didn't see/hear anything about it.... darn, where was everybody??? Did they also not know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Interpreter Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 Yes, but were you just an observer, or did you also participate as a fighter, referee or Dippin Dots salesguy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Maple The Tree King Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 Did Hara Arena get new seats lately? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastersNSich Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 Those seats look like the same ones that have always been there... I went to Hara Arena in 2002 when the Dayton Bombers were in the playoffs, and the Nutter Center was already previously booked. Not too impressive, but at least I can say I've been there.

"Bill Goodmans, gun and knife show, call a buddy, bring a friend" I've always preferred the old homely arenas to the newer ones. Kind of like how I much prefer the Cincy Gardens over US Bank Arena.

Ryan, you know, that I prefer the Gardens to the Bank Arena as well, especially for hockey, but have you been to Hara Arena? That place makes the Gardens look like Nationwide Arena. I played hockey there once awhile ago and it was like skating through puddles, the ice was terrible. The last time I was there was probably 4 years ago to see a friend play, and the place was still a dump. Back when the WHA was formed as a rival to the NHL, Cincinnati was given a team due to the construction of the, then new, Riverfront Coliseum. Dayton was to receive a franchise called the Dayton Aeros, but the owner felt that even at that time Hara Arena was not adequite, so he moved the team to Houston.

I saw a concert there back in 1985-the Firm-and security was awful. The crowd was pushing against the stage trying to get to Jimmy Page, and we almost got suffocated-in fact they pulled my friend out of the crowd and we spent the night at first aid. I barely got out myself. And then when I approached a security guard to find out where she was being taken, he got in my face and cussed me. So I don't have very good thoughts on Hara at all-and besides that the floor is sticky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kawana Posted February 2, 2008 Share Posted February 2, 2008 Still weird that I didn't hear anything about it all. Usually you hear something, at least... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
