Why do people keep posting yankee stadium?? It doesnt exist anymore lol
Not sure about giving all these votes to a Dome that was pretty much designed specifically to attract the Saints....which have been the model franchise for ineptitude. It has very little 'home' history, compared to Yankee, Fenway, Wrigley, Dodger, Lambeau, etc. If you bring up recently closed stadiums, the list grows.
Because the Dome is located in a warm-weather city, it's going to be on the short list for rotating events like the Final 4/BCS Title Game, and would naturally have a better chance hosting a game where something memorable occurs.

Madison Square Garden prob, bball, boxing, hockey, etc. Most historic, could be Fenway, Wrigley. If Yankee Stadium, the older still stood... A lot went down in the Orange Bowl.
