In 1972, motocross was a relatively new sport in USA that exploded in popularity in the wake of Bruce Brown's epic film, On Any Sunday.

Supercross started in 1972, with the inaugural “Superbowl of Motocross” at the Los Angeles Coliseum. This epic event was held with an international cast of riders and over 30,000 spectators showed up! This is what started it all and Supercross was born, today a single Supercross event will attract as many as 60,000 spectators!
