Fun Events and Unique Concessions

Besides sports and concerts, many other fun events take place here. These include shows like the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus and Disney on Ice. The famous Harlem Globetrotters basketball team has also played here. It's also a popular spot for school graduations.
