"The Cow Palace"

 

This is the arena that used to house the San Jose Sharks in the early days of the 90´s. It also was the home arena of the San Francisco Spiders during their legendary (oh well) only season in the IHL. Today it´s the proud home of the San Francisco Bulls, residing in the ECHL.

 

Inside you can clearly tell that it was purpose built to host rodeos and it´s just not the tongue in cheek name that give things away. However, not only farm animals and semi-amature hockey players call this place their home. Bands like The Beatles, The Who and Pink Floyd have all performed at this dinky but charming venue.
