January 29, 2014 - Orlando's football stadium (the Florida Citrus Bowl) has announced major renovations to its structure. I attended a demolition ceremony (hosted by Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer and Orange County Mayor Teresa Jacobs), and was able to watch the beginning of the Citrus Bowl's demise. It shall return as a brand, new state-of-the-art sporting stadium.
The Florida Citrus Bowl was home to many major, sporting events: numerous NCAAF College Bowl games; pre-season NFL games; World Cup 1994 (soccer matches); 1996 Olympic soccer matches; Orlando City soccer matches.
It was also used as a filming location for Adam Sandler's "The Waterboy" movie...
...YOU CAN DO IT, ORLANDO! :D
