My vote goes to Challenge. Plus it was also the smelliest venue I've been to. What a glorious shithole, the site of our 2010 title clincher.

Far and away The Sinan Erdem Dome in Istanbul. So loud I'd wear ear plugs - the only stadium in the world where I have done that. It was like going to a rock concert every game - your ears would literally be ringing the next day. Find most NBA games the crowd really doesn't get going unless its a close last quarter or playoffs. In the NBL used to find the Townsville Entertainment Centre crowd extremely noisy as well as The Snakepit and even Clipsal when it was rocking was great. IMO though you cannot beat the European crowds - in particular the Greeks, Turks and Lithuanian supporters are amazing

TD Garden was pretty loud, then Le Bron came to play, smashed my Celtics and about half the crowd had left by 3 quarter time

Quietest arena was RAC after adelaide swept them in the semis. Good times

This is an interesting comparison of USA vs Europe crowds:

Challenge Stadium (Perth), when it was at peak RedArmy spec.

As run down as that place is/was its acoustics where phenomenal. Perth Arena is no where near as intense or intimate as that place.

Also seen a WWE NXT event at Challenge which had incredible atmoshpere. Much better than the WWE event at the MCG.

Give me a small venue of 5000 passionate fans over a large stadium with 70,000 anyday!

Would have to be The Pit at University of New Mexico. No pro team in town, the place goes nuts.

Below is a copy of an article written in 2011 which said that Rob Beveridge had just signed for two more years with the Cats.

This would indicate that he was signed until the end of the next season (2013/14!!!!)

Why is he now reported to be a free agent and deciding between staying with Perth or taking other options.

I reckon the Cats dont want him to stay and have asked him to look elswhere?????

Rob Beveridge

RE-SIGNED: Perth Wildcats coach Rob Beveridge has agreed to a two-year contract extension, tying him to the NBL club until at least the end of 2013-14 season.
PERTH Wildcats coach Rob Beveridge has penned a new deal to keep him at the NBL club until at least the end of the 2013-14 season.

Beveridge, currently in the third year of his contract, joined the Wildcats in mid-2009 as the replacement for embattled former coach Connor Henry and has enjoyed plenty of success during his stint with the club.
