Weiser Gym was the home of Drury basketball for 60 years, but it's seen its last game. Drury is building a new arena, the O'Reilly Center, which will be completed late this summer. It won't be the biggest D2 gym around (seats 3,500), but it will be the nicest. Video board, luxury suites, lcd screens throughout the building, burl walnut lockers and granite countertops in the locker room etc., etc.

I'm going to miss Weiser though. I've been going to games there since I was a kid. It was a great old gym...seats right on top of the floor and the smell was pure heaven - a mixture of decades old wood, sweat, and popcorn.
