Always wondered what they did with old stadiums.
I guess they just let them rot, as in the case of this and the Silverdome.
It's a shame.
I think a lot of the time they are hoping that the stadiums will be repurposed for events. I could have sworn that was the original idea for the astrodome, they were going to try and turn it into a conference center/events center. But if you dont get investors, what can you do? And it costs money to tear these things down, so they just let them rot.
I think the silverdome had things in it for a while after the Lions moved out, monster truck rallys and motocross races.
