Aerial view of San Diego Stadium in Mission Valley taken in 1969. The stadium was originally opened in 1967 and renamed in 1980 for local sportswriter Jack Murphy. A substantial addition was completed in 1997 which fully enclosed it, with the exception of where the scoreboard is located. Also in 1997, the facility was renamed Qualcomm Stadium after Qualcomm Corporation paid $18 million for the naming rights. It has been used by the NFL's San Diego Chargers and the San Diego State University Aztecs college football team.
