The city of Houston has always been on the cutting edge of stadium development.  Houston first introduced the Astrodome, which opened in 1965 as the world's first dome stadium. The trend continued in 2002 with the debut of Reliant Stadium.

Stadium Construction

Reliant Stadium, the first NFL stadium with a retractable roof, opened for business on Aug. 24, 2002, as the Texans hosted the Miami Dolphins in their first home preseason game. Houston's regular season debut against Dallas on Sept. 8 was televised nationally on ESPN. The Texans stunned the Cowboys before a raucous crowd, unveiling a gameday atmosphere that would become a staple throughout the Texans' inaugural campaign.

That trend continued in 2003 as the Texans averaged 70,469 fans for their eight regular season games, including a record crowd of 70,758 against Tennessee on Dec. 21, the largest non-Super Bowl crowd in the city's history.

And speaking of the Super Bowl, the world's biggest sports spectacle returned to Houston for the first time in 30 years this past February as Reliant Stadium hosted a memorable Super Bowl XXXVIII between the New England Patriots and Carolina Panthers. The Patriots won 32-29 on Adam Vinatieri's 41-yard field goal with four seconds remaining before a raucous crowd of 71,525. The event also featured elaborate pregame and halftime shows featuring the likes of Aerosmith, Beyonce, Kid Rock, Janet Jackson, P. Diddy, Nelly, Toby Keith and Willie Nelson.
