message: Concerning the History of the stadium, somebody might put in a line about President Kennedy's visit.

Also, the stadium was used for commencement exercises in the 1950s or 1960s (and before?) - but I think the Free Speech movement started a tradition of smaller commencements distributed throughout the Campus and in various time slots.

message: This article seems to indicate that the official name is "California Memorial Stadium", but that does not appear to be the case. The official Cal athletics site calls it only "Memorial Stadium", as does the ESPN College Football Encyclopedia. This was similarly discussed recently at Talk:Memorial Stadium (University of Kansas)#Article title. Are there any objections to moving this to Memorial Stadium (California)?

replies: text: I can assure you, that the official name of the stadium is indeed "California Memorial Stadium." It is just commonly shortened to "Memorial Stadium." --CASportsFan (talk) 10:58, 24 December 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: correct. The official name has been and remains California Memorial Stadium. Gateman1997 (talk) 00:08, 25 December 2010 (UTC)

message: It looks like there are differences on the capacity of the stadium.  This source from Calbears.com lists the official capacity at 75,662.  This source, also from Calbears.com, lists the official capacity at 71,799 (which I used to cite my change).  If you go through the facilities page at Calbears.com, you'll get to the second link.  In addition, this year's media guide lists the official capacity at 71,799.  As of now, it looks like 71,799 is the "official" capacity.  Patken4 (talk) 20:08, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

message: There is something wrong with the construction costs in the inset box.
In the main article, these are listed as either $321,000,000 or $445,000,000, depending on how you count.  The box lists a $1,xxx,xxx figure and an "$18,xxx,xxx (2011)"  cost.  While it appears to be the case that the annual debt services is $18M, those numbers are otherwise totally wrong and misleading.  Perhaps the $1.xM figure was in 1923.
The construction costs for the 2011 retrofit should be at least $321M.

thread_title:  Inset Box - Construction Costs 

message: The Wikipedia article California Golden Bears football "The team plays its home games at California Memorial Stadium... modeled after the Colosseum in Rome." So I came here, to look for a photo that shows this. There is not one photo that shows any of the stadium's architecture! In fact, even though there are 13 photos, all but one is a photo of the interior. The one exterior photo shows a giant pit in the ground and gives no visual information about what this stadium looks like. Could someone post a photo of the actual outside of the Stadium?
