St. Dominics Arena(sort of)-Lewiston Maine
This building is now the Androscoggin Bank Colisee, formerly the Colisee and the Central Maine Youth Center. The ticket stub for Clay-Liston II shows St. Dominic's Arena, but according to the building website St. Dominic's burned down and this building replaced it in 1958. The site claims this was the building that hosted the famous fight(hopefully they would know). Attendance for fight: 2,434
