Picture

Could someone actually put a real picture on this page, not just a link???

History

someone should get info on the legal issues that came with the infamous "domed stadium" debacle. there were several different locations that were considered when they decided to build Rich Stadium. --72.65.17.52 00:18, 22 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Too many seats?

I know many people who have visited both Paul Brown Stadium (which I have visited) and this stadium and say that Paul Brown Stadium is much larger. Paul Brown Stadium has about five levels of seats while this stadium has barely three. So, how can this stadium have ten times more seats than Paul Brown Stadium? Not that it matters, I just want to make sure everything is accurate.

Examples

The Bill's stadium. Notice, only about two levels.

Concerts

There are a few other areas too, but the concert section particularly is rather contradictory of itself and extremely confusing to follow, with statements as "The last concerts held in the stadium were in 2001" being obviously refuted by later statements of both the Rolling Stones and One Direction concerts. Also how is the One Direction concert an indication that concerts will indeed return in the future, especially considering the first concert in 14 years was actually the one held months before? The whole section needs some help but I don't have the information or background to do so. →ClarkCT^Talk @ 00:04, 14 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

And on 4 July 1986, Tom Petty and Bob Dylan were joined by The Grateful Dead. I know; I was there; but that would be OR. I have not found a decent source or I would edit the table of concerts. Cross Reference (talk) 16:30, 4 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

June 6, 1992 - Grateful Dead with the Steve Miller Band opening

Another example to refute the statement "The last concerts held in the stadium were in 2001", is that a June 4th, 2005 concert was preformed by Kim Mitchell for the Celebration of Champions, which was introducing brand new quarterback JP Losman.

New Era

Please wait until the name change is official (or at least announced, for heaven's sake) before changing the infobox or title of this article. While it's been announced that New Era purchased the naming rights, we don't know what the stadium's name will be. Powers ^T 00:41, 14 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The first one was in fact archived, which I've added. The second was not archived before it was changed to refer to the next year, so I replaced it. The third one was fine. -- Pemilligan (talk) 15:39, 18 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Article title when new stadium opens

It's probably worth starting the discussion of what this article will be titled once the new one opens. I'd support a rename to Rich Stadium, as that was the name by which the stadium was known the longest. Keeping it as an awkwardly titled derivation of Highmark Stadium would be inappropriate. schetm (talk) 22:11, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
