From the people who brought you "Last Comiskey", they're working on a new documentary on former Chicago Stadium called "Madhouse" and seeking submissions from Blackhawks fans everywhere."
Last Comiskey was a three-part documentary that detailed the last season played at the Chicago White Sox's old home, Comiskey Park.
The documentary debuted in 2023 and was directed by independent filmmaker Matt Flesch.
The feature was inspired by ESPN's "Last Dance" which followed the 1998 Chicago Bulls during their last season with Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen, Dennis Rodman, and Phil Jackson.
That was before GM Jerry Krause obliterated the team into oblivion.
Now, they seek to memorialize the old Chicago Stadium which has housed tons of great memories for Blackhawks fans.
The stadium was home to the Chicago Bulls and Chicago Blackhawks until it was demolished in 1995.
Flesch has made a post on "X" as he is looking for Blackhawks fans to help submit tapes to make a documentary for the "Madhouse On Madison".
The stadium itself is historical not only for how many winning teams were housed here but for a record set by the Blackhawks faithful in 1982.
The largest recorded crowd for an NHL game at the stadium was 20,069 for a playoff game between the Blackhawks and Minnesota North Stars on April 10, 1982.
We're certain that some of you out there have some kind of exciting tapes you could find and submit to Flesch and company.
