It seems as though many of the old Barns get talked about frequently (and as well they should) but it seems like the Olympia is talked about the least. I know about the chicken wire, but thats about it. Maybe its because, as a Bruins fan, there has not been many interactions between the two teams and I havent heard about it much.
But even here on HF you hear about the Band Box Boston Garden, the Ghosts of the Montreal Forum, the Mad House on Madison, etc. but not too much about the Olympia. Was it just not as impressive as the other buildings? I did notice it was the first of the group to close, which was in 1979.
