Interior
Built as a physical education building, the interior of the arena is basically a large gymnasium consisting of four seating areas on each side of the floor with balcony seating along each sideline. All seating sections are bleacher seats except for chairback seats in the Blue and Gold Loge and in the lower sideline seats opposite the team benches.
The main lobby was built on what was originally the swimming pool as part of the 1992 renovations. It includes an elevator, concession stands, the ticket office, a small team shop, and the Blue and Gold Trophy Room. There are also four other lobbies at each corner of the main gym where fans can access restrooms and stairs to the balcony sections.
Galleries on the second floor of the main lobby honor Kent State's all-Americans and Hall of Fame members. Offices and storage rooms are found on this floor as well, located underneath the balcony sections of the main gym.

Famous quotes containing the word interior:
“Alas! when Virtue sits high aloft on a frigate’s poop, when Virtue is crowned in the cabin of a Commodore, when Virtue rules by compulsion, and domineers over Vice as a slave, then Virtue, though her mandates be outwardly observed, bears little interior sway.”

“The monk in hiding himself from the world becomes not less than himself, not less of a person, but more of a person, more truly and perfectly himself: for his personality and individuality are perfected in their true order, the spiritual, interior order, of union with God, the principle of all perfection.”
—Thomas Merton (1915–1968)
“The night
Makes everything grotesque. Is it because
Night is the nature of man’s interior world?”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
