The Chicago Sky have announced that the team will be changing arenas next year. The move will be from the UIC Pavilion to the Allstate Arena. Allstate Arena has a capacity of 17,500 for basketball; the UIC Pavilion only seated about 7,000 max.
I'm sure Chicago Sky fans are glad about two things - they're moving to a bigger arena and you can be sure that the Sky aren't going to Tulsa.

Correction I: It's always the Rosemont Horizon to me. :-)
Correction II: UIC's WNBA game capacity is 6304, exactly and approximately.
My only concern is that they're barely filling half of the UIC seats as it is, so why make the [Horizon] seem like an empty hangar?
BUT,
UIC doesn't have the world's greatest reputation with the suburban folk. Maybe the [Horizon] will be considered a "safer" venue. I'll poll my family members as to whether they'd be down with going to a Sky game post-transition (from UIC to Rosemont).
