That's a 'Who's Who' right there. Didn't Convention Hall become just known simply as Boardwalk Hall. Jersey native Arturo Gatti fought there numerous times, they still have bouts there.
No, as far as I know, it's always been Convention Hall. I used it as a setting for a boxing match in THE BARBED-WIRE KISS.
Wow, I was thinking of Boardwalk Hall in A.C. I remember that final scene in Barbed Wire! Dunleavy!
