The Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum field is home to the USC Trojan football team, it's where two Summer Olympics were held and where Pope John Paul II led Mass—and now it's also the scene of a hardcore porn movie.
The film, titled "The Gangbang Girl #32," was actually shot in 2001, but the L.A. Times has just unearthed that the film was, in fact, shot at the Coliseum—which is owned by taxpayers.
"The Commission had no record of the filming and the Commission did not authorize it," an attorney for the Coliseum Commission said in a statement.
But the company that filmed the porno flick at the historic Coliseum did actually obtain a permit for the shoot, they just didn't describe the movie as pornographic.
Oh really? Because the film only showcases 40 minutes of group sex featuring make believe cheerleaders and football players.
"A permit issued by Film L.A., which handles shoots for the city and county, listed the Coliseum's address as the location and the title of the movie as 'Guns Brandished 33.'" reports the Times. "It describes the planned scenes as shots with "models against scenery" and a "re-enactment of [football] players in practice game."
Mr.Marcus, one of the stars of the film, did a video interview with the L.A. Times, in which he so eloquently revealed, "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?"

The current Coliseum sex scandal comes hot off the heels of a financial corruption scandal surrounding the famed arena.
