The Liberty Memorial Coliseum, also known as Bush Stadium in the official GTA III website, is a multipurpose stadium located in Aspatria on Staunton Island, in the GTA III—GTA Vice City Stories rendition of Liberty City.

Description

The official website of GTA III describes the fans that go to the stadium:

Bush Stadium: Where Liberty City Sports fans get off. With the loss virtually all of our major sports franchises, and the rise in suburban living, Liberty City has become a soccer town. Proud Soccer moms are passionate about the Liberty City Cocks, while the men just love the LCBeavers. It is a passionate rivalry wich has been known to spill over into violence, including SUV hit and runs and screaming, bitter fights between angry housewives. Go Cocks! Up the Beavers!


Stated on its gate in GTA III to be built in 1923 (the same year as real-life New York Yankees stadium), the stadium is assumed to be multifunctional, as in it hosts football and soccer, and appears to have a running track. The stadium is similar in appearance to the L.A. Coliseum, particularly its main entrance. The bleachers of the stadium have the name of the city's football team, the Liberty City Cocks. Presumably, it is also the home field of the Liberty City Beavers, similar to Meadowlands Stadium hosting both the New York Giants and New York Jets.

During the events of Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories, the stadium is shown undergoing renovations. It is also advertised as the venue of Crowfest '98.

Trivia

  • If a player is able to reach the stadium in GTA III, the stadium field is textured, but is incorrectly solid, with some unsolid holes. However in GTA LCS, its just a huge entrance to Blue Hell, with no field textured.
