OlympicsMay 19, 2012The Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum is the only stadium to have hosted the Olympic Games twice, in 1932 and 1984. It is also the only Olympic stadium to have also hosted Super Bowls and World Series.
DICK'S Sporting GoodsJanuary 10, 2013The first “Super Bowl” was played at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum on January 15, 1967. Here, the Green Bay Packers beat the Kansas City Chiefs 35-10.- ESPNSeptember 19, 2013Before Andy Reid was coaching some of the best offenses in the NFL, he was dominating the Punt, Pass, and Kick competition. Easy to see why, he was 2x the size of his fellow "pee-wee" players.
Nick ThompsonDecember 4, 2014Great place to see a sports event!! College football!! Not a bad seat in the house! Nose bleeds are worth it
Bank of the WestOctober 24, 2013Now through 11/11/13, snap a pic that shows off your obsession with Pac-12 football & upload it to Instagram. Tag it with #Pacyourbags & you could win a trip to the Rose Bowl Stadium on 1/1/14. Read more
Bruce TienSeptember 30, 2014Watching football game for the first time! I'm so proud of being a Trojan! Fight on!
- Michael KalecJuly 19, 2017Love the history of this place. Always a place to visit whether there's a game or not.
The most historic sports arena in the country. The only stadium in the world to host two Olympics, a Super Bowl, a World Series, and a national championship football team.
Didier DorgaSeptember 13, 2015Great place to see USC football, bring cash for concessions, go on campus first and walk in with the band.
BETFebruary 1, 2013Home to Wattsatax in 1972, a music & culture festival that commemorated the 7th anniversary of the Watts riots. Here are great examples of recent African-American contributions: http://bet.us/BHM
Coach of the YearOctober 6, 2011Watch the Olympic Cauldron light up for the fourth quarter of a Trojans game. It’s also lit for special occasions like the Olympics and the Dodgers’ 50th Anniversary Game played here in 2008.
- Michael KalecJuly 19, 2017This place has such great history. Looking forward to seeing it at the Olympics in 2024 or 2028
Get here early for the best parking. Bring lots of cash. Or use public/private transport.
If you're hungry, go for the little taco stands or Derrick's sausage tents...Ghetto dogs are a great post-game heart attack snack too! ;-) and of course, FIGHT ON!
Lawry's Restaurants Inc.August 4, 2011Eat like a winner before every football home game at Lawry’s Catering Tailgates near gate 1. Open bar, hand-carved sandwiches by Lawry’s The Prime Rib. Buy advanced tickets for $68/ person per event.
know where to park before driving there, traffic is insane. buy a water bottle inside, drink and refill at drinking fountains. you will be dehydrated by end of night so drink as much as possible. ;D
Take a field trip to see the peristyle and remember the great athletes of yesteryear.
Hannah GMNovember 27, 2012Squeeze into the student section and don't forget to boo the Bruins!! Try a bacon-wrapped hotdog if you're feeling brave. Fight on!
You can go to the museum before the game! $5 water, limited food options. Good USC games though!
Love the COLISEUM location! HATE the Seats, Long Rows, & steep steps
Only the greatest football stadium in America for the nation's greatest football team.
Peter HeinzSeptember 19, 2016Got to see first homecoming Rams game here!! Love the coliseum it's so much different then any other football arenas.
Go to Nacho & Tamales stand between Sec. 12 & 13. At $8, carne asada nachos better than Barkley. Others will harass you about whereabouts of stand on long walk back to seats, so caveat emptor.
RuyNovember 10, 2012The Beautiful Coliseum! A USC game at The Coliseum is like putting a pretty dress on a hooker.
Manda CurrellOctober 14, 2016For Rams games there are plenty of people selling water and ice creams outside
TheUrbanDailyMay 23, 2011The Wattstax Music Festival was held here on 8/20/1972. Often referred to as "the Black Woodstock," the day-long concert was held to commemorate the seventh anniversary of the Watts riots.
Los AngelesOctober 13, 2010The Olympic Cauldron (torch) from the 1984 games is still lit during USC football games
Don't know the USC Fight Song? Here it is: Fight on for ol' SC! Our men fight on to victory. Our alma mater dear looks up to you! Fight on and win for ol' SC! Fight on to victory! Fight on!
bring UNOPENED water bottles since they cost 5$ inside. also make sure you have sunblock if you don't want a horrible tan. & be ready to be heckled if you're not in SC gear in the student section.
Scott R.February 17, 2012Love the peristyle end. Miss the old Kentucky Fried Chicken that used to be across the way on Fig St.
X GamesOctober 18, 2010Had such a great time filling this place with dirt this summer! Check out the photo gallery http://espn.go.com/action/photos/gallery/_/id/5425499/day-3#/14/- Real trojans stay for the ENTIRE game! AND the Trojan Marching Band post game show!
- DICK'S Sporting GoodsJanuary 10, 2013The 1972 Dolphins beat the Washington Redskins and became the NFL’s only perfect season in the Super Bowl era.
