Memorial Stadium was a stadium in Storrs-Mansfield, Connecticut. It was primarily used for American football, and was the home field of the University of Connecticut football team between 1953 and 2002. The team's current home is Rentschler Field in East Hartford. It was built for UConn's move up to the NCAA's University Division (later known as Division I-A and now as the Football Bowl Subdivision) in college football.
The stadium held 16,200 people and was built in 1953. It was demolished[1] in May 2012 to make way for a new $40 million basketball practice facility, the UConn Basketball Champions Center,[2] which opened in 2014.

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
