It is the former home of the San Francisco 49ers and the Oakland Raiders (first AFL season only) of the National Football League (NFL), and of the San Francisco Dragons of Major League Lacrosse. It also served as the home of the California Victory of the USL First Division before the club folded. Kezar also hosts amateur and recreation sports leagues, as well as numerous San Francisco high school football games (including the city championship, known popularly as the "Turkey Bowl"). ==History== In 1920, Jack Spaulding came up with a proposal for an athletic stadium to be built in San Francisco with a seating capacity of 50,000. Many business leaders in The City backed him on the proposal for the stadium which would keep San Francisco on the same level with other cities around the country that have large stadiums. Areas under consideration for the stadium were 7th & Harrison Streets, Ocean Shore, and the Central Park grounds 〔San Francisco Bulletin, October 13, 1920〕 In 1922, the San Francisco Park Commission accepted a $100,000 gift from the estate of Mary Kezar, intended to build a memorial in honor of Kezar's mother and uncles who were pioneers in the area. After the City and County of San Francisco appropriated an additional $200,000, the stadium was built in a year. Dedication ceremonies were held on May 2, 1925, and featured a two-mile (3.2 km) footrace between Ville Ritola and Paavo Nurmi of Finland, two of the greatest runners of the era. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kezar Stadium」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
