BANGOR — In March 2013 the final buzzer sounded in the hallowed Bangor Auditorium. The facility that had played host to tens of thousands of players and the seats that held nearly 2.5 million high school basketball fans were empty as way was made for the opening of the Cross Insurance Center.

Before the historic facility came down, volunteers from Penobscot Job Corps and United Technologies Center carefully removed more than 300 pairs of seats. Those seats will be available for purchase at the Bass Park complex on June 21 between 1 p.m. and 6 p.m. and June 22 from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m.

All proceeds from the sale will benefit the Maine Basketball Hall of Fame.

The seats will be sold in pairs at a cost of $25 per pair and will need to be paid for on site, using cash or check only the days of the sale.

Seats must also be removed from the site when purchased.
