萨克拉门托的球迷曾经在2002年西部决赛中创造过职业篮球赛历史上最喧闹喊声分贝的吉尼斯世界纪录。他们会疯狂地晃动手中的秘密武器——牛铃,同时伴随着所有现场球迷的放声尖叫,此情此景曾经被奥尼尔和科比形容为“地狱开始的地方”。这样场景在今天已经看不到了,自从2002年西部决赛历经七场大战输给湖人队之后,或许是NBA历史上进攻最绚丽的一支球队的夺冠计划宣告搁浅,萨克拉门托的球迷逐渐学会了安静。尤其是本赛季国王队的糟糕战绩,使之挣扎在联盟倒数球队的行列之中,球迷甚至已经远离ARCO球场。但在2009年2月6日的晚上,国王队主场与爵士的比赛,ARCO球场出现久违了的爆满,响起了久违了的放声尖叫,因为在这场比赛中场休息时,他们要一同见证国王队队史上最伟大的球员之一,昔日这块球场上的“国王”——克里斯·韦伯的球衣退役仪式。在长达30分钟的仪式上,全场球迷一直在高呼韦伯的名字,而“国王”本人用一次又一次的鞠躬和点头致谢回应球迷的呼唤。国王队的4号球衣被缓慢地上升到ARCO球馆的上空,韦伯也成为了继里奇蒙德、奥斯卡·罗伯特森、阿奇巴尔德以及另外四名前罗切斯特皇家队(国王前身)球员之后,又一位球衣在萨克拉门托退役的球星。
