Home to the NBA’s Oklahoma City Thunder, Chesapeake Energy Arena also plays host to live concerts, family shows, major sporting events and the latest in world-class entertainment. Because people aren't routinely going to say Chesapeake Energy Arena and just for pure coolness, this page is dedicated to casually calling the arena The 'Peake. Examples for possible use: I'm going to catch the Thunder at The 'Peake. The 'Peake was insane tonight! That place is loud! Some guy got arrested outside The 'Peake for scalping tickets.
