The $64 million arena hosts the Thunder. The team moved from the ECHL to the AHL in 2015.
In 2004, Stockton officials approved a $113 million plan to build a new ballpark and arena as part of a downtown revitalization effort.
The arena is paired with a 5,000-seat ballpark. A 10,000-square-foot convention center and 150-room hotel are part of the mix. The hotel and convention center were privately funded. (Facilities, Ice Hockey, Minor League, Professional Sports, Venue)
