Gaining ground ‘he Burton Coliseum Complex was completed in 1976, built by the Cal- casieu Parish Police Jury on land donated by W. T. Burton. In its early years, the complex consisted of the Coliseum and the Livestock and Exhibit Building. In 1982, McNeese purchased the Coliseum and began its renovation and expansion of the complex. The university was ab le to maintain the facility with a $3.5 million grant by the Rockefeller Reserve. The Coliseum, itself, is one of the largest covered arenas in Southwest Louisiana. Originally built to house rodeos and live- stock shows, it had a dirt floor and alu- minum benches for spectator seating. Af- ter last year, however, it was completely renovated. The dirt floor was replaced with a concrete one, and the benches were re- placed with auditorium seating. These ren- ovations greatly expanded the scope of activities that the Coliseum is capable of housing. The refurbished Coliseum now hosts basketball games, as well as grad- uations and other events. Wedding recep- tions, banquets, and meetings are also held in the smaller Chalkley Room. The rest of the Complex consists of the Livestock and Exhibit Building and Ag- ricultural Arena. The Livestock Building encompasses four acres of land and pro- vides facilities for not only livestock shows, but also activities ranging from car shows to flea markets. The Agricultural Arena, completed in 1987, is a 50,000 square feet covered arena suitable for equestrian events and livestock shows. RICK KINNEY, assistant director of the Burton Coliseum, shows his own ex- pertise in equestrian activities at McNeese's newest “Home of the Cow- boys. 16 Burton Coliseum @)
