Mid-South Coliseum
Mid-South Coliseum is an indoor arena in Memphis, Tennessee. The facility was opened in 1964, and became known "The Entertainment Capitol of the Mid-South" due its significance in hosting events such as concerts, sports games and professional wrestling shows. The Coliseum closed in 2006. In the late 2010s, efforts emerged to help preserve and refurbish the arena as part of a larger redevelopment of the surrounding area. History Construction of the facility began on April 15, 1963. From its opening in October 1964, the Coliseum was the first racially desegregated facility in Memphis. Unlike most facilities in Memphis, which largely hesitated to integrate following the 1963 ''Watson v, United States'' U.S. Supreme Court case regarding local segregation, and which was also argued two days after construction began on the Mid South Coliseum, Mid South Coliseum management would not include any signs advising segregation.

Barnhill Arena
Barnhill Arena is a 10,000-seat multipurpose arena in Fayetteville, Arkansas, now used primarily for volleyball. The arena opened in 1954 and was home to the University of Arkansas Razorbacks (men's) and (women's) basketball teams before they moved to Bud Walton Arena in 1993.
