Boston The Way It Was part 9 - 'Boston Garden'

[@dominysynclair]

I used to sneak into the Garden in the 80s. Bought my ticket for closing ceremony though. I also snuck in the week after it closed for souvenirs. There were two security guards for the whole place. One was always down on the court. I was there for most of the night paying respect. Still miss the place.

The old hockey barn had a unique aroma. It was the combination of cigar smoke, urine and vomit. I miss the old Boston Garden.

Saw "WrestleMania" with Hulk Hogan and Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka in the Garden 85'.

I'm 35 years old and been to the garden once at a very young age to see a circus. I don't really remember much of it . So many times I say I wish I was born back in the day . Times back then just seem to be more traditional and laid back with people that you can easily talk to. Seems like everyone is in a rush to get life over and done with nowadays.

36 Y/o now. I used to goto the wrestling matches with my grandmother and also the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus I remember the ramps leading out and the place always being hot and sweaty...... Always felt 90 degrees in there by the time you were leaving.

I love how the BFD had lit cigarettes in the mouth as the extinguishe d the totem pole fire. Seems to be the way all the clubs went out

Can someone tell me the name of the background music from 0:00-1:00 and 3:24-5:03. They're both awesome and I've heard them before in various commercials and promos.

Where can I find them?
