Ah yeah, Pechanga Arena was just “The Sports Arena” in the era before sponsoring venues was a thing. They still to a swap meet in the parking lot of that place every weekend. Random other info about that place, they shot a scene from Almost Famous at one of the freight entrances there.

That's what I thought! But it just seemed like my memory playing tricks on me for a place to be called "The Sports Arena". LOL.

WHAAAT!?!?! Love that movie and I only rewatched it there a few months ago not knowing that. That's a cool little nugget. Thanks!
