Where is the discus?

150 minutes for the final.
The cage looks low and the opening wide.
The original plans called for a roof over the stadium but it wasn't added until years later.
In 1979 the World Cup was held here on synthetic turf.  
The hammers bounced like 16lb super balls.
It was almost a spectator event!

Montreal Olympics 1976



The discus is just over the rim of the stadium above the first light to the right of my back.

Where do I get a high-res copy of that pic? That is awesome.
