demolition of the Omni Coliseum in Atlanta, Georgia. Coverage on CNN. ***I DO NOT OWN CNN OR ANY ASPECT OF CNN.**** Спорт
Really is sad to watch, I myself had so many great memories of this place! Absolutely awesome concerts, Aerosmith, Boston, Paul McCartney and Wings, Rod Stewart plus all the sporting events and more. Awwww Omni you were a great one I'll think of you fondly!!
The home of the Bash, War games 1987!!
Sure miss the Omni. I saw Kiss in 1979, Journey in 1981 and 1983. We were going to see The Police but my parents divorce kept me from that concert. I am glad there is a video of the show I missed. I also miss Fulton County Stadium. I guess you really never can go back.
The house that my boy my favorite basket ball player of all time Dominique Wilkins built!!!!
I went Atlanta last year and walk around the Phillip Arena where the Omni stood and what amazing building
I just recently visited Atlanta for the first time. Where the State Farm Arena is located and CNN center is where the Omni used to be. That arena has so much history. WCW world championship wrestling is where they held there Historic events like Starrcade, Slamboree and the Great American Bash. I wished old Arenas from my Big Cities never should demolish them. They just retired these buildings and leave it a memory kind like Museums so people can visit and look inside to remember to go old days. Demolish them just erase the memories like these venues like they dont exist.
CNN center was next to the Omni....0:43 This broadcast was coming from CNN center... CNN center is still there.
My last memory of the awsome Omni was an Atlanta Knights game. It was just grand.
CNN Center, right next door to the Omni, took on minor exterior damage from this
I CAN SEE THE Georgia Dome
Alot of good memories there with the Atlanta Knights.
What a sad day that was
Don't miss the OMNI at all. Phillips is too awesome. But ironically the GA Dome days are numbered as well.
It'll be coming down soon
RUSH: Test For Echo tour 12/11/96! First, last, and only memory of the Omni for me. What a great memory that was. Saw them again on the Vapor Trails tour 10/13/02, in the Philips Arena. It was indeed an improvement.

Imploded Atlanta Fulton County Stadium one week later 8/2/1997
And the Georgia Dome is toast now too
i remember watchin wcw at the omni
goodbye omni good arena
I've been waiting for this video to pop up on RUclips for years. Thanks! I saw my first concert there in 1996-White Zombie, and Rush later that year before they brought it down.
Jim Cornette brought me here
now the dome has died
Go Atlanta! A history of erasing people's memories and having no respect for the past.
Don't be ridiculous, tearing a building down doesn't erase any of the memories from said building also with the new arena brought a 2nd chance at the NHL.
Caught Elvis at the Omni in June'76. The stairs were so steep in the arena, I almost got vertigo! And, no handrails! It's time had come. - JG

They must have imploded it during a Thrashers game .... that would be a good time to have done it, since no one would've been in the building anyway.
I remember going to LL Cool J and Run DMC's concert at the Omni. 😪
@rodian10 It sure did have a lot of history , alot of great bands have played there. So sad to see it go
Starting at 3:18 - Notice on the left side of the building how the barrier falls after the preliminary explosions? There was reports afterward that windows were blown out because of a malfunction, and I am guessing that could have been part of the problem since they left an area exposed to the crippling blast to take it down.
u got chicago stadium demolition
The Georgia dome is next
NebraskaFan77 today man
@rodian10 It had a lot of holes too
ive been looking for almost a year, still cant find anything
I was.
yeah man. are you a Thrashers fan?
cool, maybe you have seen the Facebook page i put up for the Thrashers since the old one was taken down?
@torqtorqtorq i was searching for months for it, finally found someone who had it and he sent it to me to upload. his account is CNNRotatingSquare
That building although im not from atlanta had a whole lot of wrestling history within its walls.Georgia championship wrestling was the shit and all i could do was watch it from t.v. and never could go see it live...I use2 always beg my dad to go when i was little and woundered why he wouldnt take me and as i got older i found out that the omni was in georgia and not in virginia!Damn those were the days!!
Not to mention wasted taxpayer money.
