Addition of Flagpole plaque at Mustang Stadium and LA Memorial Coliseum memorial[edit]

Can someone add to the page that there's also an on-campus plaque memorializing the 1960 football team members rests at the foot of the flagpole in Mustang Stadium and visited by the football team before every game? A Mercy Bowl plaque is also at the peristyle end of the LA Memorial Coliseum.

Travel Incidents[edit]

Does it make sense to create a category for sports-related travel incidents such as these? Rather than an in-article list of "Similar incidents"? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.124.58.202 (talk) 19:12, 29 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Which Cal Poly?[edit]

There is more than one Cal Poly University in California. There is at least Cal Poly Pomona and Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. There may be some others that I am not aware of. If the article is referring to the more well known Cal Tech in Pasadena, then it should state so. Even if there was only one Cal Poly in California at the time of the accident, it should be referenced as "now known as California Polytechnic State University Pomona or which ever one it is referring to. 24.180.58.177 (talk) 06:28, 29 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This is about Cal Poly in San Luis Obispo. Today, per official and authorized NCAA branding required guidelines, California Polytechnic State University at San Luis Obispo is to be known simply as: "Cal Poly". I would suggest re-labeling the title of the article to be: "Cal Poly football team plane crash". AlmanacHobbyist (talk) 03:40, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
