Cincinnati at the very least has one (about the same size as the one at Rockefeller Center) every year that is set up on our main square – Fountain Square. It is used for the typical ice skating as well as a Broomball league and other events. Sometimes there is even another rink set up at a city park (can’t remember where though right now).
