You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.199.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 12:56, 12 May 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

[[Image:Permian Basin Fair, Odessa, TX DSCN1289.JPG|200px|right|thumb|The Permian Basin Fair is held each year at the Ector County Coliseum.]]
It is home to the [[Odessa Jackalopes]] ([[North American Hockey League]]),<ref name="westex"/> the [[West Texas Warbirds]] ([[Arena Football League]]), the [[Sand Hills Rodeo]], and the biennial [[Permian Basin International Oil Show]].<ref name="poil2"/>

Each January the arena hosts a major rodeo, and the animals are kept in a large hall at one end of the arena. This is the same area that, before hockey games, group picnics are served to as many as 500 people.<ref name="hnight"/>

==History==
The Coliseum was built in 1954 and was previously the home of the original [[Odessa Jackalopes (1997–2011)|Odessa Jackalopes]] team. The Coliseum was the oldest arena still being used for CHL games until the [[Fort Wayne Komets]] and their facility, the [[Allen County War Memorial Coliseum]], entered the league in 2010. It was home to the [[West Texas Roughnecks|Odessa/West Texas Roughnecks]] [[Indoor American football|indoor football]] team from 2004 until the team folded in 2012.

On April 29, 1983 - after rehearsing with new production for several days - the British band [[Def Leppard]] launched their first headlining tour at the coliseum.

English heavy rock band [[Deep Purple]] played the first-ever US gig of their comeback tour at the venue on Jan 18, 1985. 

Elvis Presley played two sold out shows at the coliseum on May 29–30, 1976. 

The [[Professional Bull Riders]] hosted a [[Bud Light Cup Series]] event known as "Top Guns Bull Riding" at the Coliseum annually from 1995 to 2000.
