Famed L.A. Coliseum was once a stage for a porn shoot

The Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum has been used for many things — two summer Olympics, John F. Kennedy's Democratic nomination acceptance speech, USC home football games and apparently the filming of pornographic films.

<record scratch>

According to the Los Angeles Times, "The Gangbang Girl #32" was filmed at the Coliseum in 2001 and, according to the newspaper, "featured 40 minutes of group sex on the gridiron turf."

The plot of the movie involves a football team — jerseys, pads and all — and an eager cheerleader.

The filming at the taxpayer-owned stadium was done at night, with the Coliseum's towering lights blazing and its rows of distinctive red and white seats framing many of the scenes. The video also shows the stadium's signature tunnel, which the Trojan team charges through at the start of games, as well as a sliver of the iconic peristyle, the arched entrance to the Coliseum.

The film gets three out of five stars on Adult DVD Talk (I did an Internet search) and the reviewer does note that all of the actors put in "excellent performances" because you want to give 100 percent when you're filming a porn on such hallowed ground.

But, they couldn't have thought of a better name? Here's what some of my fellow Y! bloggers came up with:

USexC

Super Bowl XXX

More Cushing for the Pushing

Anything with Trojans (just go with the wordplay)

John, David and Booty

Reggie's Bu... Well, you get the idea.

The Los Angeles Times couldn't confirm how the production company, Anabolic Video, received permission to film in the stadium, which is jointly run by the city, county and state, but it didn't appear to be illegal to shoot pornography on state property.

And at least one of the film's actors was appreciative of the experience.

"I was just in awe that we were at the Coliseum," said a star of the film, who goes by the name Mr. Marcus. "I've made movies for about 20 years and I've done a lot of things, but that one really stands out.… I mean, who gets to have sex on the Coliseum floor?"

Hmmm, any former or current USC players/students care to take that one?
