Former Sacramento Kings Head Coach Gary St. Jean Joins The Carmichael Dave Show

As we say farewell to ARCO Arena, former Sacramento Kings head coach Gary St. Jean stopped by The Carmichael Dave Show with Jason Ross on Thursday morning to share some stories and memories from his time with the organization.

St. Jean was Sacramento’s coach from 1993 through 2000, posting a 172-278 record while leading the Kings to the playoffs during the 1995-96 season.

The 1996 Playoffs are remembered fondly in Sacramento, as the first-round series against Seattle arguably birthed a phrase that Kings fans would come to know very well in the coming years: ‘ARCO Thunder’.

"Pregame… we're in the locker room – the coaches room – and somebody said "what the heck is all that noise?"
