Houstonist Flickr Photo of the Day - The Astrodome

The Astrodome

The Astrodome
by baldheretic

1965 was the year The Astrodome was opened to the public. 1996 was the last year an NFL game was played there and MLB played their last game in the 'dome in 1999. Now in 2008, it's just a monument that hosts a rare event every once and a while.

I don't think I'll ever get tired of pictures of the Dome. I swear that if the day comes where it's demolished, I'll fly into a homicidal frenzy.

Just a word of warning, City of Houston.
