Olympia Stadium, better known as the Detroit Olympia and nicknamed The Old Red Barn, stood at 5920 Grand River Avenue in Detroit, Michigan from 1927 until 1987. It seated close to 15,000. The Olympia opened with a rodeo in September 1927, and shortly thereafter the main tenants of the building, the Detroit Red Wings of the NHL (at the time, known as the Cougars), moved in. The Cougars would play their first game at the Olympia on November 22, and Detroit's Johnny Sheppard would record the first goal scored at the new building. However, the visiting Ottawa Senators defeated the Cougars, 2-1. Besides the Red Wings, the Olympia was also home to the Detroit Olympics International-American Hockey League minor league team in the 1930s, and the NBA's Detroit Pistons from 1957 to 1961. It hosted the NBA All-Star Game in 1959 and the NCAA Frozen Four in 1977 and 1979.
