Texas Stadium opened in 1971 and Cowboy fans called it 'The House That Landry Built' after their legendary NFL Hall of Fame coach.
As a certified member of the Houston chapter of the 'I Hate the Dallas Cowboys' club, I had a sarcastic nickname for it.
I called it the 'Stupiddome' for the hole in its roof.
Well, I won't have Texas Stadium to rag on any more because it's now a pile of rubble after it was imploded the other day.

There's also a 1979 Thanksgiving Day game between the Oilers and Cowboys in which Earl Campbell ran over, through, and around the Cowboys defense for 199 yards enroute to a 30-24 victory.
As a matter of fact, the Oilers/Tennessee Traitors have never lost to the Cowboys on Thanksgiving Day.
But I digress.
Bye Bye Stupiddome.
