Willows Shopping Center. In those early years Fan's Arena concentrated on liscensed sports
products for professional and college teams. We have always been a big believer in providing a
diversity of products to be able to cater to the needs of all our customers. This led us to provide
both Designer as well as the brand named products you see now.
Fan's Arena has been very involved in the community especially in youth sports and Boy Scouts.
Over a 7 year span beginning in 1992 the owners coached 32 different teams in Little League
Baseball, CYO Basketball, and Youth Football. While coaching, Fan's Arena began to get into
athletic uniforms for the teams. If you are sensing a sports theme in the early years, there is a
reason. Al has been involved in sports his entire life including having played for the Houston
Oilers. Houston Oiler Stats.
