Olympia Stadium

Olympia Stadium is presumably some sort of sporting venue.

Fiction

Animated cartoon

When the Autobots set up their base in an old Sumdac Systems auto plant, they put a number of freeway signs up on the wall, including one indicating that the exit to Olympia Stadium was at Warren Avenue. Home Is Where the Spark Is

Notes

• The real Olympia Stadium was the longtime home of the [[wikipedia:{{#if:|:}}Detroit Red Wings|{{#if:||Detroit Red Wings}}]]. It was demolished in 1987, long before the setting of Transformers Animated, so where they got the sign is a mystery.
• One of the other signs on the wall is for [[wikipedia:{{#if:|:}}U.S. Route 12 in Michigan|{{#if:U.S. Route 12|U.S. Route 12|U.S. Route 12 in Michigan}}]]. U.S. 12 passed by Olympia on its original 1926-1956 routing.
• The real-life version of the sign was originally posted on westbound I-96 in the early 1970s. Since its removal, it has been stored inside Olympia's successor, [[wikipedia:{{#if:|:}}Joe Louis Arena|{{#if:||Joe Louis Arena}}]], and can be seen here.
