点评:It was the late and legendary TV announcer Keith Jackson who described the Rose Bowl as "The Granddaddy of them all" while referring to the New Year's Day football game that annually captivated millions of viewers. Or was he referring to the stadium of the same name? Located at 1001 Rose Bowl Drive in Pasadena, California, a northeast suburb of Los Angeles, adjacent to Brookside Golf Course and Arroyo Seco canyon, what has been nicknamed "America's Stadium" was opened in 1922 and since then has served as a well-recognized backdrop for countless sporting and entertainment events, including the Rose Bowl football game, BCS National College Football Championship games, two Summer Olympics, five Super Bowls, USC and UCLA football games, two FIFA World Cup finals, the world's largest flea market and musical concerts by Taylor Swift, Beyonce and the Rolling Stones. Designated as a National Historic Landmark, the Rose Bowl averaged an attendance of 103,735 annually from 1965 to 1992. It set a single-game record of 106,869 in 1973 when USC defeated Ohio State 42-17. Today, the Rose Bowl has a capacity of 89,702. See the statue of Jackie Robinson, who played football at UCLA and set a Rose Bowl Stadium record with a 104-yard kickoff return in 1938. Interestingly, it is the only statue in the world that depicts the future baseball Hall of Famer in a football uniform. Meanwhile, take a two-hour guided tour of the Rose Bowl, which includes a visit to the Rose Bowl Hall of Fame, an original 1922 locker room, the Terry Donahue Pavilion and the working press box.
翻译:已故传奇电视播音员基思·杰克逊曾将玫瑰碗描述为“万物之祖”,他指的是每年元旦吸引数百万观众的橄榄球比赛。或者,他指的是同名的体育场?这座绰号“美国体育场”的体育场位于加利福尼亚州帕萨迪纳市玫瑰碗大道1001号,位于洛杉矶东北郊区,毗邻布鲁克赛德高尔夫球场和阿罗约·塞科峡谷,于1922年开放。自那时起,它已成为无数体育和娱乐活动的知名场所,包括玫瑰碗橄榄球赛、BCS全国大学橄榄球锦标赛、两届夏季奥运会、五届超级碗、南加州大学和加州大学洛杉矶分校的橄榄球比赛、两届世界杯决赛、全球最大的跳蚤市场以及泰勒·斯威夫特、碧昂斯和滚石乐队的演唱会。玫瑰碗被指定为国家历史地标,从 1965 年到 1992 年,平均每年有 103,735 人到场。1973 年,南加州大学以 42-17 击败俄亥俄州立大学,创下了单场比赛 106,869 人的记录。如今,玫瑰碗可容纳 89,702 人。看看杰基·罗宾逊的雕像,他曾在加州大学洛杉矶分校踢足球,并于 1938 年以 104 码的开球回攻创造了玫瑰碗体育场的记录。有趣的是,这是世界上唯一一座描绘这位未来棒球名人堂成员身穿足球服的雕像。同时,参加两小时的玫瑰碗导览游,其中包括参观玫瑰碗名人堂、1922 年的原始更衣室、特里多纳休馆和仍在使用的新闻发布室。
