In the 70s the Boy Scouts used it at least once for a Jamboree and filled it with water and had boat battles. It was epic.


a number of years ago someone told me about this....I didn't belive it....then I was proven wrong!

Is it Olympia or Memorial that had the stone wall only a few feet from the back of the endzone? I remember as a kid going to an EA game somewhere in BR and someone ran smack into it going full speed trying to catch a TD. Knocked himself the frick out.

Olympia Stadium is better.

It’s not though. Memorial looks so much nicer and cooler.

Only thing better about Olympia is location.

Catholic does NOT have any room to build a stadium. They use Memorial for all home games.


I thought they used Olympia.

eta: I was wrong, they play at Memorial now. What school(s) use Olympia as their main home field now?

St. Michael plays their home games there. And random shitty schools, like Thrive Academy, Mentorship Academy, etc.
