OT: Coliseum Change For Football

by Zabat on Sep 24, 2008 11:23 PM PDT

I remember at one point there was a video of how they change the coliseum from a baseball field to a football field for Raiders games and all the equipment it required to add/remove the seats. It was really a cool thing to see. I searched this site and a few others sites, googled a few things, and couldn't find it anywhere.

Does anyone have a link to a video of the coliseum's transformation for football?

I think it was part of Brodie Brazil’s On Deck Show that he used to do. :( I’ve searched his personal site (brodiebrazil.com) to no avail. Other videos are there, just not the one that shows the conversion. Sorry I’m not more help!

Yeah it was part of the former A’s On Deck Show on TV36 that isn’t on anymore. It was on ondeckshow.com, but i just went to the website and it is no longer active. Sorry. I do remember the video—it was really cool to see how they changed it over to football. I miss that show it was good, they had some good behind the scenes features.

But he came back. And there was much rejoicing.
