Jimmy Hoffa myths

This quote has absolutly nothing to do with JLA, why is it here?

"Theories connecting Hoffa's body and sports facilities are popular; another version holds that his remains are located beneath Giants Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey."

Sections

I added a sections cleanup box because the beginning of the article is just filled with random facts and needs to be sorted in some coherent manner. Grhs126student 17:30, 1 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Contradicting itself

The article says that the arena was completed in 1978, but was built in 1979. This can't be possible. Green caterpillar 21:59, 16 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Construction may have been completed, but the furnishing may not have been completed until 1979. Either way, it seems to have been addressed already... please remove the tag when you recieve this message. --Mrmiscellanious 23:42, 17 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hockeytown not nickname for arena

Hockeytown is a nickname for Detroit and includes all of the Detroit Red Wings fans everywhere. It is not a nickname for the arena. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Mrscrile (talk • contribs) 12:53, 27 April 2007 (UTC).[reply]

That is true. I am going to move it. - Rjd0060 19:22, 19 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Capacity

The JLA web site lists capacity at 20,058. Have there been a few seats removed? Alaney2k (talk) 23:14, 12 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Child named Joe Louis Arena

I don't know if this is true, but I've heard several people say there's a married couple, the Arenas, and they named their firstborn Joe Louis. Detroit Joseph (talk) 03:50, 17 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Lovely, but we don't do unsourced, trivial rumors here. DP76764 (Talk) 04:02, 17 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

End date

Yes, we all know the Red Wings have played their final game at Joe Louis Arena and aren't going to the playoffs. Even so, please refrain from changing the article to past tense and putting the end year for the tenant list until the current NHL season has ended, which happens after the conclusion of the Stanley Cup finals. That has been the precedent in other stadium and arena articles. No need to rush. This arena is still a "current" arena in the NHL. --JonRidinger (talk) 16:24, 12 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
