In 2013, a survey was conducted to see if a new sporting and athletic center would be wanted for the university and in 2016, the survey results concluded in an overwhelming favor for the construction of a new sports center.
Bob Dylan and Pierce the Veil are the only acts that have performed at the arena more than once.
