abstract
  • Windsor Arena (nicknamed The Barn, because of its age, wooden construction, and its appearance of a giant barn) is an indoor arena located in Windsor, Ontario. Its capacity is approximately 4,400 with standing room. The arena's ice is an asymmetrical 80 feet by 195 feet or 15,600 square feet (24.4 m x 59.4 m or 1,449 m²). The arena was the home of the Windsor Spitfires of the Ontario Hockey League from 1975-2008, at which time the team's home was moved to the WFCU Centre. Often regarded as one of the most difficult buildings to play in the OHL because of the loud fans and the claustrophobic atmosphere, the arena is sometimes referred to as the "Madhouse on McDougall (Street)" by locals, but more commonly simply "The Barn".
