Water Gushes Into Hallway at Oakland Coliseum During Raiders, Chiefs Game

Aside from playing host to a messy performance by the Raiders Sunday, the Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum had its own set of sloppy issues.

Just before the 1:05 p.m. kickoff, San Francisco Chronicle reporter Scott Ostler captured footage of rainwater pouring into the visiting team's hallway at the 50-year-old stadium.

Streams of water were also seen flowing over strands of electrical wiring.

Fortunately, Sunday's water mishap only featured rain. Back in 2013, raw sewage flooded the Athletics' dugout before seeping into the coaches' bathroom a few months later. Toilets backed up yet again and flooded a coaching room the following year.

The Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum, which was built in 1966, is one of the oldest stadiums in the NFL.
