Thursday, July 16, 2009 was the date the following artifacts were recovered. Within two weeks after final demolition of Buffalo's Memorial Auditorium, these fragments of "Aud" structure were retrieved from behind the fence using a paint stick and pulled from under a loose section of fencing on the north side of the grounds. The original photo of me retrieving the items has unfortunately been compromised.
During it's time as a sports venue, the Aud hosted professional indoor lacrosse and indoor soccer as well as the former Buffalo Braves of the NBA and local collegiate basketball among the four local NCAA Division I programs (SUNY at Buffalo, Canisius College, Niagara U, and St. Bonaventure U). More to come on the special collections of the BNG Museum for Sport and Play!
