The Aud

[tomh009]

I mean the Aud is even older than the London Ice house. It was built 1950, thats 66 years ago. The investment in downtown would be a major key. 

And yet, location aside, OHL Arena Guide ranked the Aud as the best arena in the OHL.  Read for yourself:

Although that was 10 years ago, the Aud is still a very good arena.

To quote:

Perhaps it's ironic that a team that I dislike intensely plays in my favourite building in the OHL. No matter. The Aud is a gem. Sixty years old, the building has a wonderful old facade, worn floors and painted bricks inside, great atmosphere, and views so good that they make you gasp, yet it also has been maintained immaculately, frequently renovated, and has all of the amenities that you'd expect from any modern building. Featuring the best combination of old-style charm and new-style facilities I've encountered in hockey at any level, the Aud truly is deserving of its number one title.
