Indianapolis Colts - RCA Dome

Indianapolis Colts - RCA Dome Address: 100 South Capitol Ave. Indianapolis, IN 46254 Name: RCA Dome Home Team: Indianapolis Colts Capacity: 56,127 Playing Surface: Artificial Turf Year Opened: 1983

The Indianapolis Colts first game at the RCA/Hoosier Dome was on September 2, 1984. The RCA/Hoosier Dome is very similar to the Metrodome in Minneapolis. The roof of the stadium consists of Teflon coated fiberglass. Two tiers of 60,000 seats circle the entire Astroturf playing field. In 1994, RCA bought the naming rights to the stadium, thus it was renamed the RCA Dome.

The RCA Dome was not built primarily for football, but for conventions and trade shows. Other than being the home of the Colts, the RCA Dome hosts concerts, large banquets, religious assemblies, and various sporting events including the NCAA Final Four. In December 2004, the Colts announced that they would move out of the RCA Dome and into a new stadium to be built in downtown Indianapolis for the 2008 season.
