What were the most FUN and memorable moments of the 57 "shows" beyond the games at The Birdcage, and what were some stories behind them? Entertainment Director John Gaskins and PA Announcer Randy Preston take you "behind the curtain."

True North Sports LLC almost immediately invested in things The Birdcage sorely needed and wants it to become a top Sioux Falls experience. But what about a new stadium in the future?
