RCA Dome Implosion and Memories
A little bit of Indianapolis history was written and erased from the books Saturday morning. The RCA Dome was imploded to make room for the expanding convention center.
If you’re on twitter and would like to share your own memories of the RCA dome you can post what you’d like with the hashtag of #dome. Of course if you’d just like to read what other people have written you can perform a twitter search for the same #dome tag and see what everyone else remembers.
Stay Away from the RCA Dome Demolition
The new Lucas Oil Stadium is a beautiful facility, but it’s going to be somewhat of a sad day to see the RCA Dome take it’s final bow as the facility that held the Colts for their entire Indianapolis career up to this point as the picture above gracefully captures.
Perhaps it being a sad day is a good thing though. If you’re going to be so sad you should just stay at home and record the demolition on your own time when you’re good and ready for it. Whatever you do, the experts are highly suggesting you stay away from downtown and trying to catch it happen in person.
Officials said that the best place to see the implosion in progress is from home.
"I really believe that the best spot will be on TV, because the media cameras will be such that you can see the high angles," Scheele said.
There you have it, it’s kind of like actually going to a Colts game. The view from your living room and your own TV will be more than you could wish for, but there’s just something about being there in person to capture the whole experience. But, given the request of the experts, this time you really should stay home.
