Since 1967 Autzen Stadium has been the home of the Oregon Ducks Football team. The stadium was funded in large part by the Autzen Foundation whose founder, Thomas J. Autzen, the stadium is named after. Somewhat ironically, Thomas J. Autzen was an alumnus of arch rival Oregon State University.

This bridge connects Alton Baker Park and Autzen Stadium and is known as the Autzen Bridge by locals. The view of the Willamette River is spectacular from here.
