Auburn Sports Arena

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Auburn Sports Arena was a 2,500 seat multi-purpose arena in Auburn, Alabama. Nicknamed "The Barn," it opened in 1946. It was home to the Auburn University Tigers basketball team. It was replaced when the Beard-Eaves-Memorial Coliseum opened in 1968.

It was destroyed in 1996 during the Auburn-LSU football game when a fire started due to a grill placed too close to the building.
