Why Nobody Uses St. Louis’ NFL Stadium
#MegaEngineering #StLouis #NFL How does a city spend hundreds of millions on an NFL stadium… only to lose the team anyway? In this video, we go inside The Dome at America’s Center in St. Louis — once one of the loudest stadiums in football, home of the Rams and the legendary Greatest Show on Turf, now a giant aging dome without an NFL franchise. From the desperate push to bring football back to St. Louis, to the lease clause that doomed the stadium, Stan Kroenke’s move to Los Angeles, and the shocking $790 million lawsuit settlement, we break down how one of America’s biggest stadium betrayals happened. This is the story of a stadium built to save football in St. Louis… and still left behind.
