In the Red Zone: The History of Camp Randall Stadium
Opis filmu
Opis oryginalny: angielski
Camp Randall, in Madison Wisconsin, is much more than just a football stadium. Its origins go back to the U.S. Civil War, where it was created as a training ground for Union soldiers, and eventually became a prison for captured Confederate soldiers. One unlucky Confederate soldier was even shot dead right about where the 50-yardline is today, and that event is re-created in this compelling documentary. After the Civil War ended, Camp Randall became the Wisconsin State Fairgrounds for many years, until this same plot of land played host to a new American sport called "football" near the end of the 19th Century, and has hosted this game ever since. "In the Red Zone" expertly tells the incredible history that has happened on this relatively small piece of earth. A star football player from a 1920s UW Badger team describes playing against Knute Rockne and the Four Horsemen of Notre Dame at Camp Randall
