If we could "bring back" one fronton from the dead....

....which one would it be?

I will start. Probably not Big Bend (middle of nowhere)....or Melbourne or Daytona. None of those were "premier" level frontons in my opinion

You could make the case that one in the Northeast should be revived. I only visited Milford, so of those up there that would get my vote. But lots of people loved Bridgeport...and Hartford...and Newport too.

Las Vegas? That would be a dream! How cool would that be if it worked?! Jai-alai on the Strip? Count me in! Reno...not so much. To me anyways.

In Florida....you could make the case for maybe Palm Beach or Tampa. Palm Beach was always a nicer fronton. Get some rivalry going with the other 2 SouthFL frontons in Miami and Dania. But....Tampa was always a good one too. They always had a good roster. I enjoyed all my visits there.

Which should it be? Which fronton would you most like to see back?
