It's nature's way of receiving you
It's nature's way of retrieving you
It's nature's way of telling you something's wrong

Spirit

Built in 1969 on the University of Houston campus, the 8500 seat Hofheinz Pavilion was home to the U of H Cougar basketball team. For a while, in the 70's, Hofheinz was a big venue for rock concerts. It was a great concert hall and many major acts played there. Concerts kind of tapered off after the Summit opened but it would be great if they returned.
