A new era is about to begin at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. As we look forward, we also are looking back at some rare footage of the stadium's unparalleled history that I didn't know existed.
This place has hosted multiple Olympics, Super Bowls, the World Series, Presidents, the Pope, rock stars, and virtually every sports team in L.A.
In our Fox 11 Los Angeles archives, we found Coliseum speeches from FDR, JFK, MLK, Ronald Reagan, Nelson Mandela, Billy Graham, plus home games for the Trojans, Bruins, Dodgers, Rams, Raiders, and more.
Our story includes new interviews with Mayor Eric Garcetti, Robert Shrum, Supervisor Janice Hahn & USC Trojans Coach Clay Helton.
Plus, our behind the scenes look at the $321 million renovation that's changed the Coliseum in major ways.
I've worked really hard on this for weeks...and hope you'll share it out on your page if you find it interesting.
Special thanks to editor Debbie Kim & archivist Mitch Waldow for their help!
It aired on the FOX 11 News at 10PM with me & Marla Tellez in for Christine Devine .
