USC, L.A. Coliseum ink 25-yr. lease

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Southern California has signed a new 25-year lease that will keep the Trojans' football team in the Los Angeles Coliseum and include improvements in the stadium.

USC has played in the 85-year-old facility since it was built in 1923.

Among other details, the agreement calls for the Coliseum Commission to replace all of the seats, upgrade the video and scoreboard on the peristyle end and add a video-scoreboard on the other end of the stadium.

The commission and the university also will try to get a naming rights sponsor for the facility.

I am so not looking forward to that song their band plays when any moderately good play happens for them. Here's hoping they don't get many opportunities to celebrate on Sept 13th!

I second that. Hopefully the Silver Bullets and TBDBITL will perform well enough to shut them up!

Probably one of the funniest comments I've heard. A classic.:osu:

I think HorticullyBuck's question wasn't asking where as far as the city but where as far as the venue, in response to BB73's post which quoted an article saying that there will be modifications to the Coliseum. He may be implying that if renovations happen, "at Southern California" could mean "Rose Bowl" instead of "the Coliseum".

Actually, I misread the question. I thought he asked when will it be played at. :2004:

dunno if been posted yet, but copied/pasted from another forum. spread the word

If anyone wants to help out, either by donating money themselves and/or spreading the word, there is an "OSUMB travel fund" set up to help with sending the band to USC. So far the band has been able to raise $30,000, but still needs $370,000, so any help you can provide in getting the word out would be much appreciated! Checks should be made payable to Ohio State University with fund # 312742 noted in the memo and sent to:

Christy Rosenthal, Director of Development
Ohio State University College of the Arts
1501 Neil Avenue, Suite 020
Columbus, OH 43201

If you have any questions, please call Christy Rosenthal at (614) 292-2197

Matt Leinart's dad and Reggie Bush's agent are paying for it.
