Re: pic: Lucas Oils Stadium
Would it be at the Lucas Oil Stadium or the "new" Convention Center [read: the RCA Dome (read: the Hoosier Dome)]?
Either way, I'm going. Now if only we can get Dean Kamen and the FIRST Headquarters to move to Noblesville, I'll go to Kickoff too. |

So how many years have I been in the dark (i.e. when did the Lucas Oil Stadium open)? |

Re: pic: Lucas Oils Stadium
It opened on August 14th, 2008. So you haven't been in the dark for that long.

Re: pic: Lucas Oils Stadium
I hated calling it the RCA dome also. My conference once rented the Hoosier dome for us to play football on every team in the coference was playing another team in the conference. It was awesome.

Re: pic: Lucas Oils Stadium
I feel so out of the loop of Indy now that I'm living in Champaign for college... it's so wierd to hear about news from my hometown at length!
That would be so totally awesome for FIRST to have championships there in indy... it's really set up well for it... I'd even venture to say better than Atlanta. Examples... there's no big hill between your hotel and the championship to roll toolboxes up and back down, everything is even closer together, there's plenty of lodging and food available, even a few local downtown machine shops if the need arises. Also, your favorite industrial supply companies (Enco, McMaster, etc.) have next-day service to Indianapolis even when shipping UPS Ground. Also, for the FIRST Finale, white river state park should be big enough to house it. For entertainment theres a great state museum and one of the largest children's museums around (yes, it's a children's museum, but... who isn't young at heart.) as well as an Imax theater. -q p.s. Have they used the convertible roof yet? |

Re: pic: Lucas Oils Stadium
Wow nice joint, how many does it hold?
Let me know when some worth seeing shows there... like Metallica So they tearing down the RCA Dome... bummer. We've something similar going on here in Greensboro. They built a new ballpark downtown and now the city wants to tear down the old ball park which is a landmark, and the oldest double A ball park in the USA. -p ![]() |

Re: pic: Lucas Oils Stadium
2011? That should give me enough time to learn how to spell Indianapolis...
maps.live.com really should update their photos. The aerial view barely has any seating, and the "Bird's Eye" view only has a couple of walls for the new stadium. I was wondering how you got an interior photo of an incomplete building? Important question: How close would the pits be? Quote:
And Amtrak is right there - too bad it takes a day-and-a-half from Boston. |

Re: pic: Lucas Oils Stadium
Depends on how FIRST grows and how they would like things laid out. The floor of LOS is much bigger than the Georgia Dome and there is 43,000 square feet of extra hall space in LOS. The entire FRC event could be held in LOS.
It also depends on how the fields would be laid out and how many seats would be retracted. You can see in this pick how the convention center expansion will be connected to LOS by an underground tunnel. ![]() |
