The San Jose Sharks played their first home game on October 5, 1991 at the Cow Palace. Despite an overwhelmingly losing record during those first few years, the organization itself has been quite the success story.
The Sharks lit up the Cow Palace until 1993, when they moved to the Shark Tank we know and love today. Since then, the organization has found no problem generating buzz and creating an unparalleled hockey experience for devoted fans.
For five straight years, the Sharks managed to sell out every home game. That’s 205 games and, more importantly, one incredibly loyal fan base.
