For many, the representative of their team is an historical people. Recent pushes for social justice have started questioning nicknames and mascots, leading to many getting changed.

  • Fsu Sporting Venues Walking Tour
    FSU SPORTING VENUES WALKING TOUR Florida State University’s growth after its metamorphosis from OUR ITINERARY: an all female college to a coeducational university was tremen- dous. One of the beneficiaries of this growth was the Universi- ty’s athletic department, especially the football program. With the athletic programs came the necessary improvements to existing structures and construction of new ones. The sporting venues named for people are interesting in the varied nature of the scope of their namesakes’ actual connections to the Univer- sity. As we walk through the tour, you should keep an eye on upgrades and expansions present at each venue. 1. DONALD L. TUCKER CENTER Starting off on Pensacola Street, the first venue we reach is the Donald L. Tucker Center. The Tucker Center currently serves as the home of the Florida State men’s and women’s basketball teams. It opened on 14 September 1981 and has served as the home of the men’s basketball team since then. FSU women’s basketball has called the Tucker Center home since 1995. If you look at the roof you will notice it is newer than the rest of the building. In 1995, bad weather actually ripped off a 45 by Donald L. Tucker Civic Center 100 foot portion of metal from the roof while 2600 people were inside attending a Christian ministry. Most of the roof damaged was from a $200,000 repair job done just one month earlier. The Civic Center was named for Donald L. Tucker, a two-term Speaker of the Florida House of Representatives who led the fight in state legislature to appropriate $12 million to build the Civic Center.1 1”Civic Center New Home for Lady Seminole Team,” Tallahassee Demo- crat, 1 Jun 1995; “‘We Looked Up, the Ceiling was Gone,’” Tallahassee Democrat, 12 Nov 1995; “Civic Center’s ‘Driving Force’ Dies at 62,” Tal- lahassee Democrat, 2 May 2001; “Happy 20th, Civic Center,” Tallahassee Democrat, 16 Sep 2001.
