It was completed in September 1975, and named Riverfront Coliseum because of its placement next to Riverfront Stadium. The arena seats 17,556 people (in the round). It is the largest indoor arena in the Greater Cincinnati region with 346,100 square feet in area. It was the home of the Cincinnati Stingers, of the WHA, from 1975 to 1979. Since then, the arena has hosted two minor league hockey teams and various concerts, political rallies, tennis tournaments, figure skating, professional wrestling, a Billy Graham Crusade and other events. The facility's longest-serving tenant was the men's basketball program of the University of Cincinnati, which used the arena from its completion until 1987, when U.C. played its games at Cincinnati Gardens (1987–89), until an on-campus facility (Shoemaker Center), now known as Fifth Third Arena, was completed. It will also become home to the 2014 NCAA Division I Men's Ice Hockey Tournament serving as the Midwest Regional with Miami University the host school. The arena underwent a $14 million renovation project in 1997 and is still in use. The current main tenant is the Cincinnati Cyclones, of the ECHL. On occasion, there are local pushes for the attraction of another major sports franchise to occupy the arena, possibly an NBA or NHL franchise either relocated or expanded, though little has ever come to fruition. The Cincinnati Royals left Cincinnati in 1972, and were the last NBA team to call Cincinnati their home. The Cleveland Cavaliers have played a preseason game at U.S. Bank Arena, however.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.usbankarena.com/events/314/cleveland-cavaliers-vs-philadelphia-76ers/ )〕 Until the construction of the University of Cincinnati's Fifth Third Arena and Northern Kentucky University's The Bank of Kentucky Center, commencement ceremonies for these schools were held at the facility. ==Owners== * Brian and Albert Heekin (1975–1997)〔(PUTTING ON CROWNING TOUCH )〕 * Cincinnati Entertainment Associates (1997–2001)〔(Firstar Center has seen both highs and lows )〕 * Nederlander Entertainment (2001–present)〔(Firstar Center sold to ex-owner )〕 * Anschutz Entertainment Group (2011–present)〔(AEG, Nederlander partner to own U.S. Bank Arena, Cyclones )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「U.S. Bank Arena」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
