SkyDome in two and a half minutes!

Posted By: KJ · 5/18/2012 3:10:00 PM

I hope you're loving the totally 80s long weekend on boom973.

Let's go back to the late 80s... when the Skydome was built. They started building it in October 1986 and finished it June 1989 - two and a half years, showcased in this time lapse video. Still way faster than it will take the guys to finish the balconies on my apartment building.

I remember when SkyDome (Rogers Centre) first opened and I would go and sit there and stare while the dome opened - 20 minutes... and I enjoyed every last second. I still love going to the dome. I'm going tonight for the Jays / Mets game. They had a great sale on - $39 for a seat in the outfield (200 section) complete with a hotdog and drink. Normally a drink and a hotdog is close to $39 bucks, so this is a sweet deal!

It's the unofficial kick off to summer and it's all 80s all long weekend long on boom973. Have fun and hey, maybe I'll see you at the Rogers Centre! (I still call it the SkyDome, how about you?)
