Coleman Coliseum Tickets
Crimson Tide basketball has been drawing University of Alabama fans to the Coleman Coliseum since 1968. Originally named Memorial Coliseum, this iconic symbol of Crimson Tide pride was built at a cost of 4.2 million and initially seated 15,032 people, making it one of the largest sport facilities in the Southeastern Conference and the fifth-largest in the US at that time. The Coleman Coliseum and grounds are situated on two acres, and there are almost 100,000 square feet of space in the center bowl. In 1998, the coliseum was renamed the Coleman Coliseum. This was in honor of Jeff Coleman, a collector of Crimson Tide lore, an alumni director and a member of the committee that managed the arena's construction. The Coleman Coliseum underwent an extensive renovation for the 2005-06 season and received many substantial upgrades, such as a completely modernized faade, numerous expansions, a new club room and 316 additional seats. Additional updates over the years include a high-definition scoreboard and even more seating. Get your Coleman Coliseum tickets for an exciting
