It has been witness to the most historic confrontations, the most memorable performances, and has seen memorable appearances from many of the biggest names in the entertainment industry - from Muhammad Ali to Mike Tyson, Alice Cooper to Fred Durst, Run DMC to Boyz II Men, Cyndi Lauper to Reba McEntire, and so many others.
