Pete Maravich Assembly Center

The Pete Maravich Assembly Center is the legendary home of LSU Tigers basketball and one of the loudest arenas in college basketball. Known as the Deaf Dome, the arena's design amplifies crowd noise to intense levels. Located in Baton Rouge, it creates an intimidating environment for SEC opponents. The venue honors Pistol Pete Maravich, one of basketball's greatest players. The PMAC has hosted countless memorable LSU basketball moments and remains a college hoops institution.

The arena opened in 1972 and was renamed for Maravich in 1977 after his tragic death. Shaquille O'Neal, Chris Jackson, and Ben Simmons are among the stars who played there. The venue has hosted NCAA Tournament games and numerous SEC championship moments. LSU's 1986 Final Four team and subsequent success have built the PMAC's reputation. The Deaf Dome remains one of the most feared road venues in the SEC.
