TAD SMITH COLISEUM
DS-902
C. M. "Tad" Smith Coliseum is an 9,061-seat multi-purpose arena on the campus of the University of Mississippi. It is home to the University of Mississippi Rebels and Lady Rebels basketball teams.
The building opened during the 1965-1966 as Rebel Coliseum. It was renamed on March 25, 1972 to honor C.M. "Tad" Smith, former three-sport letterman, coach and athletic director at the university. The largest crowd ever at the building was on February 10, 2007, when 9,452 fans watched the Rebels defeat the No. 18 Alabama Crimson Tide.
Prior to the building of the Coliseum, the team played in Old Gym (now the Martindale Student Services Center), a 2,500-seat gym built in 1929.
Unused 3 1/2" x 5 1/2" standard size chrome.
