Well I mean the Spectrum hosted the 76ers for 28 years. Wells Fargo is 26 years old. So I guess it's getting up there in age.

Only stadiums are considered old at 30 years. Guess our skyline must be ancient ruins by that standard.

Idk at Age 30 my body has already started breaking down so I'd say 30 is pretty old.

The colosseum in Verona has been used for 2000 years. Wells Fargo is still brand new.

They don’t build them like they used to

What a comparison. You really thought that was a good zinger, didn’t you?

There is no need to be wasting money building new stadia. The one in Nimes has also been in constant use for at least a thousand years. The Wells Fargo Center should last at least a few hundred years.

The Sixers are building their own stadium, it’s a private company. I’m all for it if I don’t have to look at the slew of graffiti’d buy gold here stores on market east anymore.
