civic arena - march 12, 2012 |
|
---|---|
walked up to the arena to take pictures of the new mario lemieux statue. decided to get some pics of the civic arena before it's gone. i spent a lot of nights in this building... |
|
from my building at work. sections d6 (left) through d9. note the graffiti behind d7. you can also see some of the luxury suites. |
this view adds d10 and d11. somewhere below this string of seats is where i sat for my first concert there - johnny cash in april, 1971. |
the opposite side of the arena. this is where d21 was - where i sat for several shows, including my first rock concert, kiss in july, 1979. the penguins locker room was also in that corner. |
|
walking up, i noticed i could see the stairs between two of the roof leaves, so i got a quick picture, then decided to... |
load up the zoom lens to get a tighter view. then i heard a loud groaning crack... |
|
|
top of the dome - this is where the antennae were. |
lighting bank above d11. |
i love cropping - this is where our season tickets were for the penguins way back when.

animated gif of the leaf of the roof coming down. i was pressing the shutter button as quickly as i could! |
