Chicago Stadium opened on March 28, 1929, and, at that time, it was the largest indoor sporting arena in the entire world. It was built at a cost of about $7,000,000. The first event held there was a boxing match. The Blackhawks played their first game in the Stadium on December 16, 1929. The building became known over the years as one of the toughest for opponents to play in. The crowd was nearly on top of the ice and it was always very loud. This free standing functional seat grades excellent overall.
