Beauty shop scene for Slapshot was in The Hair Em. It was beside Central Park and owned by my dad William Shaffer.
The bus loading scene sure looks like the Town Manor Motel in downtown Johnstown
No shots of the arenas the Chiefs played in, home or away? “Slap Shot” IS a movie about a hockey team, isn’t it? SMH.
I’m sure its been long since demolished but does anyone know where the war memorial coloseum was? Any pics to go along with it?
It’s still there. The Johnstown Chiefs play in it. It’s called the First Summit Arena: https://www.google.com/maps/@40.3232364,-78.9222053,3a,90y,211.81h,83.91t/data=!3m7!1e1!3m5!1st2Wsrrv6XLRUCGoMakTYtQ!2e0!6s%2F%2Fgeo2.ggpht.com%2Fcbk%3Fpanoid%3Dt2Wsrrv6XLRUCGoMakTYtQ%26output%3Dthumbnail%26cb_client%3Dmaps_sv.tactile.gps%26thumb%3D2%26w%3D203%26h%3D100%26yaw%3D323.652%26pitch%3D0%26thumbfov%3D100!7i16384!8i8192
Actually the Johnstown Tomahawks in the NAHL play there now.
The scene where the pre game fight and bloody national anthem takes place at the Utica Memorial Auditorium. The scene where the players jump into the stands to fight the crowd takes place at the Syracuse War Memorial Arena.
I’m don’t remember if there is more than 1 bus scene in the movie but if this is the one where they are hitting the side of the bus with a sledge hammer and he says “making it look mean” then it was filmed at the Holiday Inn in Indiana, Pa. I watched them film that scene for 2 hours and it last about 4 seconds in the film.

Johnstown Tomahawks still play out of it
Anyone know where the house was that Reggiewent o see the owners of the cheifs?
The owners’ house is on Coon Ridge Road near Fender Lane. There also was a shot of the bus riding along Fender Lane.
Does anybody know where Reg Dunlop’s apartment was located?
I read that it was really Bruce Boudreau’s place.
The people making the film asked the Jets team who had the crappiest apartment, and everybody looked at Bruce, lol.
