Fun fact. The huntsman center was host to the 1979 national championship game. Larry Bird and Indiana state university against Magic Johnson and Michigan state. To this day it's one of the most watched college basketball games ever. And it been called the game that saved college basketball.
It's impossible for me to see the Ducks' court design without associating it with camping in Oregon. Very pleasant memories of looking up at the stars on Mt. Hood. And that artwork is exactly what the local forest looks like.
Selfish question: Would you ever consider doing videos on the college hockey arenas? Smaller sport, much smaller, but there's some absolute gems in there, especially in the ECAC. Go look up Ingalls Rink at Yale if you're unfamiliar.
While there isn't a PAC12 hockey league, the Arizona Wildcats and Arizona State Sun Devils both are part of the ACHA. The Wildcats used to be the IceCats back in the day and were a club team.
The Huntsman Center at University of Utah was the site of the first ever matchup between Magic Johnson and Larry Bird - the 1979 NCAA championship game.
I go to WSU and drive by Beasley every day. The top has Go Cougs because it’s on the flight path into Pullman. Also, simply painting the tops of the exterior Crimson would look so much better than the brown that currently is there
Love your videos. Have you considered making a video of all the NCAA tournament arenas this year? The tournament starts next week and might make for some interesting content.
Even as an Arizona State fan I have to say Desert Financial Arena lags behind those of the LA schools, Oregon, Washington, and even our hated rival in Tucson. Badly in need of a facelift and upgrades
Besides the court, the Matthew Knight Arena has an awesome seating tier layout. Pretty sure it's a strong influence on the LA Clippers tier layout for their new arena. Its intimate and intimidating.
Wow, that Oregon court is one of the ugliest things I've ever seen at a sporting event. It should've just been the sideline between each three point line. It looks like a giant threw up in the middle the way it currently is.
Curiousity led me to look up the flooring @ Maples Pavilion. Like most top-level basketball arenas, maple wood is indeed used for the court. Very fitting.
Very good video, man. I hope you can make a video of the stadiums of the Mexican Baseball League teams where they will play in this year 2022, please. 🙏🏽😇
With the NCAA men’s basketball tournament coming up, you could do a video on all the arenas/stadiums that are going to be hosting games. Could do them for the women’s tournament too
To clarify, basketball will remain at the Desert Financial Center. Wrestling and gymnastics will share the hockey arena with the Sun Devils hockey team and for a couple of years (at least) the NHL Coyotes.
2:55 Not to spread negativity, but the roof design on Colorado's arena looks a lot like a certain symbol.... Great video, great timing ahead of March Madness
Huntsman the last name of a super rich philanthropist in Utah, and he donated a bunch of money to the university which is why the arena is named after him.
@@chipperw Thanks for the info . I only wanted to say about the word hunter and the possible meaning with huntsman the word and not with the last name I apologize if there was a misunderstanding
It’s really a trip about how symmetrical it appears… but it’s not. This is all for historical reasons. Yet I still think we’ve lost something in Eugene by replacing MacArthur Court. That was one of a kind.

Nice Video. For the Washington State floor. I think the parquet floor was much better looking than the stylized look they have now.
Arizona State actually does have a hockey team, however, they are building a separate arena for hockey that will be ready next year.
The Arizona Coyotes will also be calling that arena home, for a while.
@@wyolaskan1868 it’s gonna be crazy
2 fun facts. Arizona went undeafeated at home this season. Oregon St finished 3W - 27L overall.
After you do Big 10 arenas, you should do Big East. They are considered part of the Power 6 basketball conferences (as in the best conferences).
All I’ve been waiting for is big East arenas, so much history with that conference’s programs
He did big ten already
The script on the WSU arena is “Go Cougs,” short for Cougars. It is a bit hard to make out unless you already know what the name is.

Hockey is better than basketball
Hockey is the best sport
@@BigManHugeLarge so accurate lmao

A video on MVC basketball arenas with the three new members would be cool!
Go Sycamores!!
I could have happily gone the rest of my life without seeing the Australian version of "Huntsman"...thanks a lot!

Love it! The opening scene is 20 minute drive from my home!

You need to do mountain west basketball arenas next.

The roofing at Colorado is not tile but it's solar panels.
Nooo where’s the old background music 🙁 I miss it
McKale Center is one of the greatest arenas in the country.
Absolutely love McKale center. Best arena in the nation.

I CARE ABOUT THE INTRO!!!!!!!!
Pretty sure your intro photo was Elk Lake in the high Cascades just out of Bend, where I live.
Yeah... never come here. It's nasty. You'd hate it.
Can you do a college hockey series
Do Big East, it’s a power 6 and my favorite NCAA basketball team Villanova is there.
The court at Pauley Pavilion is named after John Wooden and his wife Nell. It's the Nell and John Wooden court. I'm not sure who Paul Wooden is.
I guess I had a Beatles song stuck in my head when I said John and Paul.
Also, Have you thought of doing each top arena in country in South America, like you did with Europe? Or did you do that already?
South America will be coming up within a week or two.
@@TheWideWorldofStadiums Hehe New it was soon! Thanks!
Very good video, man. I hope you can make a video of the stadiums of the Mexican Baseball League teams where they will play in this year 2022, please.
🙏🏽😇
Utah Ucla and Oregon are in a league of their own but usc’s is lowkey dope too
UCLA pauley pavilion is absolutely amazing, very modern and huge. Definitely in a league of its own along with Oregon and Utah!
With the NCAA men’s basketball tournament coming up, you could do a video on all the arenas/stadiums that are going to be hosting games. Could do them for the women’s tournament too
Big sky conference basketball stadiums next or have you done that video already?
Love your videos! Can you do an Austrian Bundesliga vid? Thanks!
Whoa what happened to the legendary music?? I miss it.
I'm wondering if you'll do Ivy League basketball venues, considering the Cathedral of College Basketball lives there.
ASU actually has hockey and have a multipurpose arena coming next year just not hockey and basketball
To clarify, basketball will remain at the Desert Financial Center. Wrestling and gymnastics will share the hockey arena with the Sun Devils hockey team and for a couple of years (at least) the NHL Coyotes.
@@JBM425 I was just correcting him
Please do ABL or Australia baseball league please
gill coliseum is named after Amory "slats" gill the winningest basketball coach to date from Oregon state university.

Bailey Coliseum’s roof says “Go Cougs” 9:42

Can you please do College Baseball stadiums please!
I find perfectly round basketball arenas to be slightly unsettling.
Can u do the Big East please!
About Huntsman and Utes , Huntsman means Hunter , Utes is an Native American people in the Utah area
Huntsman the last name of a super rich philanthropist in Utah, and he donated a bunch of money to the university which is why the arena is named after him.
@@chipperw Thanks for the info . I only wanted to say about the word hunter and the possible meaning with huntsman the word and not with the last name
I apologize if there was a misunderstanding
Oregons is top tier
@@clemfandango5886 it’s a lot better in person
It’s really a trip about how symmetrical it appears… but it’s not. This is all for historical reasons.
Yet I still think we’ve lost something in Eugene by replacing MacArthur Court. That was one of a kind.
Thank you for this :)
No worries. Thanks for watching!

You might want to do some fact checking next time. Oregon states Gilll coliseum was named after former coach Armory "slats" gill.
I can't remember what I said but wasn't it a joke about Beavers having gills or something? If so, it was not meant to be taken seriously.
Why the hell would WSU change their parquet floors that shit used to look good for them
Mountain Best please

ASU's stadium nickname is not the well, but rather "the bank"
