Patrick Lynch, who was been managing the stadium and adjacent Sports Arena since 1994, tendered his resignation in an e-mail to the nine members of the Coliseum Commission.

"This last year has been very trying and it has taken its toll on me, both physically and mentally," Lynch wrote. "I would like to thank the president and other commissioners for their support over this difficult period. I would also like to thank the commissioners who have worked so hard in the past to achieve what I believe to be many successes. Many projects are in front of you and I wish nothing but the best for all your efforts."
