Review & FAQ:

Opened in January 2006, the Booth Family Hall of Athletics is a museum honoring Kansas University athletic programs, present and past coaches, and student athletes. The 19,335 square foot facility is located next to the Allen Fieldhouse and underwent significant expansions in 2009.

Booth Family Hall is open year-round, making it possible for Jayhawk fans to learn about the tradition and history of Kansas Athletics. The hall got its name from the original donation from the family of the late Gilbert and Betty Booth, Lawrence residents and life-long Jayhawk fans.

The Story of Sport gallery showcases the history of Kansas Athletics from 1879, featuring two Olympians cases and one case honoring Wilt Chamberlain. The Game and Gear gallery highlights all current 18 KU athletic teams, and the KANSAS Experience Wall gallery includes the teams’ traditions such as crimson and blue, cheerleading, the marching band, and others.
