Booth Hall of Athletics at Allen Fieldhouse - Lawrence, Kansas

The Booth Family Hall of Athletics at the KU Allen Fieldhouse in Lawrence, Kansas is a shrine to sports at the University of Kansas. All though it is devoted to all of the sports at the University, I think it is a must visit for fans of College Basketball. The Booth Hall is billed at 26,000 square feet, but the museum is less than a quarter of that space and includes a smaller gift shop. The facility opened in 2006 and is open year around.

Two hallways lead from the Booth Family Hall of Athletics into Allen Fieldhouse and display the retired basketball jerseys. The original "Beware of the Phog" banner is also on display.

On home football game days, the Hall will close 30 minutes before kickoff. On home basketball game days, the Hall will close 3 hours before tip off and re-open 90 minutes before game time.
