It’s hard to know what to call this coliseum. The 11,000-seat venue opened as the Charlotte Coliseum in 1955, and had been renamed several times before the chicken-and-biscuits chain bought naming rights in 2008. Locals who can’t keep up with the changing moniker often call it The Old Coliseum or The Big I. When it was built, it had the world’s largest unsupported steel dome. It was the first coliseum in Charlotte and served as ground zero for sports and entertainment for three decades. The coliseum closed in 1988 and underwent extensive renovations and retrofits before reopening in 1993. Major acts like Elvis, Queen, Bob Dylan, and the Rolling Stones have played here, but the opening of newand biggerstadiums has drawn big acts to other venues. Now, smaller musical acts and sporting events are the mainstays. The coliseum is adjacent to Ovens Auditorium; they share the same address and phone number.

Although their legal status is not precisely clear, and some of them do end up serving out indentures and being freed, the majority of Africans in Virginia during the colonial period are slaves.
