Parker Coliseum
The John M. Parker Coliseum, built in the 1930s, is where the livestock shows, horse shows, and other activities are held. It has an arena, which is 250 feet long and 125 feet wide, surrounded by an amphitheater that seats 6,756. Until the Maravich Assembly Center was built, the Parker Coliseum was LSU's primary place for assembling large crowds for all kinds of activities and entertainment.
