The Edward Jones Dome, located at 701 Convention Plaza, St. Louis, MO 63101, was built in 1995 and had been the home of the National Football League’s St. Louis Rams since the team moved to the area from their old Los Angeles home. The Edward Jones Dome is owned by the St. Louis Regional Sports Authority and cost $280 million to construct back in 1995. The stadium was originally called the Trans World Dome when TWA originally agreed to pay $1.3 million annually for 20-year naming rights beginning in 1995 with payments increasing 3.5% each year. The name changed in 2001 to “The Dome at America’s Center”, but Edward Jones purchased the naming rights in January 2002 for $2.65 million a year over a 12-year period. Prior to moving to St. Louis, the Rams played at Anaheim Stadium, a multipurpose facility that was also the home of the California Angels (MLB).

From 1960 until 1987, St. Louis had an NFL team, the Cardinals who played at Busch Stadium. However, the team was moved to Arizona and Sun Devil Stadium after the 1987 season. When the Rams moved to St. Louis, the new stadium wasn’t yet completed and so the team was forced to play their first few games at Busch Stadium, home of the St. Louis Cardinals of Major League Baseball. Over 65,000 seats circle the entire Astroturf field along with 6,300 club seats and 125 luxury suites. The Edward Jones Dome is a part of the expanded America's Center convention complex. This complex, along with Edward Jones Dome, hosts many other events besides football, including big name concerts and various conventions and other occasions. The stadium can be turned into a convention center very quickly with a "Magic Turf" system allowing the football field to be rolled up in about an hour. The Edward Jones Dome also boasts some of the most inexpensive tickets available in the entire league with good sightlines and spacious seats for all fans.
