Global Spectrum does not own the Rose Garden. They were contracted by the bond holders to manage it when Paul Allens Oregon Arena Corp. defaulted. Somebody ought to correct the article.

Yes, Global Spectrum does not own the Rose Garden. Portland Arena Managment, LLC does. However, Global Spectrum does manage the Rose Garden. Tv145033|^(talk) 22:56, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

Why are the dates in the section discussing the bankruptcy put in the YYYY-MM-DD form?

[edit] For accuracy of title...

Shouldn't this article be moved to Rose Quarter Arena with a redirect from Rose Garden Arena? It seems the current scheme, the precise opposite, is backwards. --Jgilhousen 21:49, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

No. Unless I'm mistaken (and I can see the place from my window), it is the Rose Garden Arena, a part of the Rose Quarter, which also includes the Memorial Coliseum. Also, it is supposedly the busiest venue in the world; I don't know if this includes the coliseum or not. Jason McHuff 05:50, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] NBA All-Star Game

It seems that most teams get to host an All-Star Game a year or two after opening a new arena. Why hasn't the NBA All-Star Game ever come to the Rose Garden? 4.243.152.100 08:22, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
