The Honda Center, previously known as the Arrowhead Pond of Anaheim, is an indoor arena in Anaheim, California. The arena is home to the NHL's Anaheim Ducks and was home of the former NLL's Anaheim Storm, which folded in 2005. It was completed in 1993 at a cost of $123 million. Arrowhead paid $15 million for the naming rights over 10 years a few months after the arena opened. Honda Motor Company has acquired the naming rights to the Pond and the arena changed its name in October 2006... http://www.hondacenter.com/ The Honda Center lies across the street from Angel Stadium (where MLB's Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim play) and roughly 5 miles away from Disneyland. The arena seats up 17,174 for its primary tenant, the Ducks. There are 84 luxury suites in the building, which has hosted 17.5 million people as of 2003. Broadcom chairman and billionaire Henry Samueli owns both the company which operates the arena, Anaheim Arena Management, LLC, and the arena's primary tenant, the Ducks, giving him great flexibility in scheduling events and recruiting new tenants. Samueli has made it known that he hopes to bring an NBA franchise to the arena.
