WBZ Archives: Goodbye Boston Garden

On this day in 1995, the last meaningful game was played at the Boston Garden. It was Game 5 of the NHL Eastern Conference quarterfinal series between the Bruins and Devils. The Bruins lost 3-2 and were eliminated from the playoffs.

I miss the old barn still to this day im a die hard bruins fan I was 15 years old in the last season of the garden and had been to a few games there I'm now 38 and have been to alot of bruins games at td garden and I like td garden but loved the old garden i still have dreams every so often about it i wish it was still standing

I snuck into the garden over 300 times. I fought all the security guards and I met so many players both hockey and basketball. The tunnel walk to the elevator to bus was legendary! They know me there....peace! 617

Like the old saying goes: Don't cry because it's gone, Smile because it happened.

Good saying

Never heard that before but I’ll take it with me

[@SunakiVA]

When I say that I was born in the wrong generation, I mean it. I would’ve loved to walk into this place, get to watch a game (reg. season, playoffs, finals), concert, whichever. I would’ve loved that.

This stadium was designed by the same person who designed Madison Square Garden

[@master-kq3nw]

hm i did not know that name that person?that s why called boston garden ?

[@CLNSMEDIA]

Correct. There’s a building on canal called “offices of Madison Sq Garden” and former Bruins goalie Cleon Deskalakis owns a great private club there where a lot of the players go after the games. Also, Brady’s dad’s insurance office there.

Imponente que se veía el Boston Garden cuando tenia los anuncios de Panassonic, me acuerdo muy bien de los 80 cundo jugaron contra los Lakers, Los Celtics de Boston son mi equipo preferido.

The World wrestling Federation (WWF) had many shows there and the 1993 survivor series was the final wrestling event held at the Boston Garden

[@RobMcDougall]

Not true, the last WWF event was a house show May 13th, 1995, billed as "A Night To Remember", with many old legends brought along to pay tribute. Survivor Series '93 was the first and last pay per view held there.

[@matthew-dv8gv]

Even some of 80's guys that were in WCW came in WWF during the last event and pay tribute?
