Very cool stadium. I've noticed that smaller stadiums are gonna be paramount to the future of sports (
Thank you for the cool “insider’s view” of the dome - as you said, it pretty much defines the Syracuse skyline - if you sit up on the lawn of Woodlawn Reservoir on the west side of Syracuse, especially in autumn, the whole eastern side of the Syracuse valley and the Eastern/SU ridge are a sight to behold…. I knew Pete back when he worked at SU’s Anisley Drive Physical Plant Ops HQ - I was a Jr at Corcoran HS and did my summer job working on the intra-dorm moving truck crew, for SU’s Residence and Dinning Services Dept. We’d get called to the dome every so often to move this or unload a tractor trailer of whatever… Pete drove a red Ford 4x4 pickup and even back then, he was always working and always had a huge key ring w/ what seemed to be a hundred keys…. During my tenure as a student and walk-on at SU, I got to work “Dome Event” security at all of the big concerts during the early and mid-80s… and like Pete nowadays, I too once had a head of bushy hair, lol
Here's to the next 40!

Yes indeed.
Haven’t been inside the dome since 1992
It gets so loud inside that place
Sadly these types of domes are gone. Theyre classic. Carrier and Tropicana are the only 2 remaining
