The Sports Arena is a hallowed hall of cherished sporting and musical memories—home to a parade of long-departed teams like the Clippers, the original Gulls and the Rockets, who in 1968 landed in the Guinness Book of World Records for the longest losing streak of any professional sports team.
The arena also has been host to a who’s who of pop superstars, from an aging Elvis Presley to the ageless Rolling Stones, from the Doors and the Airplane to the Backstreet Boys and N’Sync—at least a dozen of whom recorded live albums there, despite the arena’s well-publicized reputation for poor acoustics.
The arena brought professional indoor sports to San Diego, in the form of the Gulls, the Rockets, the Clippers and myriad others.

 San Diego Mariners
The Western Hockey League had folded (along with the beloved San Diego Gulls) and the World Hockey Association (new rivals to the National Hockey League) had just planted their flag in San Diego.
Local hockey fans were ambivalent about the Mariners (many were resentful of their displacement of the WHL Gulls), and attendance lagged behind the league average.
This was exacerbated by missed payrolls and changes of ownership: however, as a result of a team vote the Mariners players themselves chose to continue to represent San Diego on the ice despite the off-ice distractions.
