A ring of fame is also located inside the stadium containing the retired numbers of Rams Hall of Famers. The stadium has changed names several times, from the TWA Dome to the Dome at America's Center, to its present day name, Edward Jones Dome. Edward Jones purchased the naming rights in January 2002 for $2.65 million a year. Edward Jones Dome is part of the expanded America's Center convention complex. This complex, along with Edward Jones Dome hosts many other events besides football, including concerts and conventions. The stadium can be turned into a convention center very quickly. A "Magic Turf" systems allows the football field to be rolled up in an hour. The lighting gridiron can also be lowered to make the area more unique. After the 2004 season, the Rams plan to install Fieldturf and replace the video/scoreboards with new High Definition ones. The Edward Jones Dome is one of the most unique stadiums in the NFL.
