Just outside of Detroit, in Pontiac Michigan, sits one of the most famous and iconic abandoned structures in the country. At one time the largest NFL stadium and host to SuperBowl 16. This is the Pontiac Silverdome.

Lesson is: if the material can't handle snow, don't use it as a roof.

$583,000??? Where did they sell it, gamestop?

The place where Hulk Hogan bodyslam Andre The Giant

Detroit seriously has the most up and downs of any city in the united states

Lesson: don’t make a roof out of non-roof stuff.

Anyone who doesn't know, the silverdome has been destroyed as of december 2017. The lower level of the stadium is all that remains

Fun fact - The Silverdome never actually hosted a professional football team. That would imply the Detroit Lions were ever a professional football team...

@matthewhaverkamp8657 6 years ago

Lagging attendance in the 90's wasn't all due to a shrinking economy, a terrible football team helped.

Abandoned, just like the Pontiac car brand

So many great memories... I received a set of four seats as a birthday gift the year they were auctioned. They’re in my man cave where we continue to watch the Lions break our hearts every Sunday.

Some people say that on some nights, when the wind is quiet, and the smell of yesterday is in this ghostly stadium, that you can still hear the slam heard around the world. When Hogan picked up 550 pound Andre the Giant and drove him to the ring canvas as the world shook and the heavens trembled. RIP Silver Dome,we shall never forget.

And it was built so good it took a demolition team 2 times to implode the damn stadium. American made...

The fact that every professional team in Detroit now plays within walking distance of each other is pretty awesome.

I was at Wrestlemania III over 90k people, as of Dec 5th 2019 it's a vacant lot.

Maybe an abandoned on some of Rio's Olympic stadiums?

I lived in Pontiac MI from 1974-1980. We went to the Silverdome several times and I can still remember how it felt to have that rush of air blow against you as you enter or exit the structure
