This is the last season the University of Akron will play football at the Rubber Bowl. In September 2009, InfoCision Stadium, on the UA campus, is to become home to the boys in blue and gold. But what's to become of the 68-year-old Rubber Bowl?
Whether it falls victim to a wrecking ball or is somehow transformed is unclear. But there are lots of stories to be told about the things that have taken place inside the horseshoe-shaped stadium.
Does the Rubber Bowl hold a special memory for you? Perhaps you played your best game at the stadium, or sneaked your first kiss during a snowy Turkey Day game. Maybe you attended the Rolling Stones concert, or watched as 27 people were arrested during a Jefferson Airplane show in 1972.
Whatever your memory is of the Rubber Bowl, we want to hear from you. Please send your response by Sept. 5 to kmcmahan@thebeaconjournal.com (with ''Rubber Bowl'' in the subject line), or mail to:
