... Woops... That's embarassing. It was supposed to be a link to destroying to Kingdome.

Rookie mistake.

I remember taking a tour of the Kingdome in grade school when it first opened. It was a concrete turd then, and it was a concrete turd when they finally put it out of it's misery in 2000.

That was a crazy day, my old job had a pretty good view of it from the upper floors. Everyone was there with their families. Fun times!

Though I kinda miss that ugly old grey dome.

I remember being in a car on a ski trip and listening to the demolition on the radio. Good memories.

I think everyone can just go to the FAQ forum where that is available.

Even though it was a crappy venue, I miss the Kingdome because of my Mariner memories there. I think Griffey left because of Safeco Field.

It's a weird video for me to watch. I love our current stadium, but for some reason, it's painful seeing the Kingdome go down.

Exactly. I was in Europe at the time, so I didn't get the intimate, first-hand experience of this. More like hearsay that something nostalgic and dear to your heart is suddenly gone. And you find it's true after all. Yea, you'll get a shiny new one, but that still doesn't change what was taken.

That was shot from the same park where me and the wife watched it from. 'twas a crisp morning, and we had awesome seats! I remember the whole hillside shouting the countdown, then 5 secs after we hit zero.... BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM!!!!! CRASHHHHHHHHH........ Massive dust cloud. Probably the most awesome thing I've ever witnessed in person.

Ew, I just read an article that Seattle/King Co. still owes $83 million on the Kingdome.
