I'm pretty sure this is the only arena that turns off the lights in the crowd. What's the deal behind this? Does this have something to do with the "Showtime" nickname? Also, is it like that for Clippers games?
Started it in 05 I think
"LightsOut" theme
Puts all the attention on the court
I personally hate it. It seems dark and depressing and I think has an affect on the crowd support and interactions and such
Staples Center is dead during Laker games when the game is close. Not a lot of energy in the building until the end of the 4th or if the Lakers are blowing somebody out

Yea, I figured the point was to focus attention on the court. I agree. Its seems the fans don't get into the game as much as fans at other arenas
