OHIO STADIUM: Ohio State Buckeyes (NCAA) (1922-present) Columbus Crew (MLS) (1996-99) Ohio Glory (WLAF) (1992)

Ohio Stadium (also known simply as The ’Shoe and The House Harley Built), is the home of the Buckeyes football team at The Ohio State University in Columbus, Ohio, United States. The stadium was added to the National Register of Historic Places by the National Park Service on March 22, 1974.

Ohio Stadium also provided a home to the Columbus Crew of MLS from the league's inception in 1996 until soccer-specific Columbus Crew Stadium opened in 1999. With a capacity of 102,329, it is the third largest stadium in the NCAA and the sixth largest non-racing stadium in the world. Ohio Stadium is also a concert venue; U2, The Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd, and Metallica are among the many acts who have played in Ohio Stadium over the years. The stadium does not have field lights; when night events do occur special lighting must be temporarily installed.

ST. JOHN ARENA: St. John Arena is a multi-purpose arena on the campus of The Ohio State University in Columbus, Ohio, USA. The arena was named for Lynn St. John, who served as Ohio State's men's basketball coach and athletic director until 1947.

Located on north campus between Woody Hayes Drive and Lane Avenue, the 13,276-seat arena was built in 1956. When it housed the Ohio State Buckeyes men's basketball team from its completion until 1998, it saw the Buckeyes win the 1960 National Championship and five straight Big Ten titles from 1960 to 1964 under coach Fred Taylor. The men's and women's basketball teams moved to their current home, Value City Arena at the Jerome Schottenstein Center, in 1998. The arena now houses the school's men's and women's volleyball teams, men's and women's gymnastics teams, and wrestling squad. It also hosts the annual Buckeye Classic women's basketball tournament.

In 2004, St. John Arena hosted its first men's basketball game in six years due to a scheduling conflict at the Schottenstein Center. St. John Arena was again used for men's basketball on March 24, 2008, when the Buckeyes hosted an NIT game against the California Golden Bears. The Buckeyes eventually took the 2008 NIT title.
