VIDEO DESCRIPTION

The Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, opened in 1923, is the historic 77,500-seat (expandable to 92,000+) outdoor stadium in Exposition Park with iconic peristyle arches and the Olympic cauldron. By the 1984 Olympics (and still in place for Bruce Springsteen’s September 1985 show), it had been transformed with a brand-new Tartan track, a massive state-of-the-art color scoreboard and video matrix, a rebuilt press box, upgraded locker rooms and lighting, 15,000 added temporary seats, and a fresh paint job that restored its classic 1932 Olympic look.
