RBC Center or RBC Centura Center?

It's RBC Center; being an NHL arena that is therefore often on Canadian television helps with advertising back home as well as promoting the brand in NC, hence just RBC Center.

I'd like to remove the part about having the loudest arena. At least the 145 decibel part. I live in Raleigh, watched all the games, and the highest I remember seeing was a 134 mark recorded by an RPD officer with a noise meter. At the very least, that was held up on screen during the televised broadcast. Until we find citation for the 145 number (which frankly sounds very unrealistic), I think we should replace it with the lower number, or leave it out entirely. NCSUPiMaster

According to The Hockey News (July 2006 Vol. 59 No. 37 page 6), under Ring the Alarm, an unofficial reading of 134 decibels was measured during Game 7 of the SCF. The loudest reading ever at an American sporting event. Svandijk

Alright, I'm gonna add that into the article and replace the 145 part. NCSUPiMaster

Yeh my bad about the 145. I was at game 7 (when they showed it on the jumbotron) and i just misrecalled the number. 134 is correct. sorry about that. Go canes. Bobbyschultz

Why not keep the link pointing to the North Carolina State University page in the tenant section? Ncsupimaster 05:17, 18 October 2006 (UTC)
