This was added to a stray article:

Indianapolis plans to have the new Colts stadium complete by the year 2008. The new stadium seems to offer many benefits for the Colts and the city of Indianapolis. An event Indianapolis is hoping to hold by the year 2011 is the Super Bowl. Although the stadium is planned to be complete by 2008, an expanded Convention Center, needed for a Super Bowl, will not be finished until 2010. To hold a Super Bowl, an NFL team bids with its city in a year-long process. The year 2011 is still up for grabs, and the Colts are hoping to hold the Super Bowl in that year. A major difficulty in selling Indianapolis to the Official NFL is location. Most Super Bowls are held in warm, sunny locations. Indianapolis will need to sell the Midwest in general, where temperatures rarely exceed the 40s in February. Another factor for Indianapolis is money. Indianapolis is small in corporate headquarters and the media market, which attracts advertising and media. The city of Indianapolis will need to sell and promote all that it is worth. If the Super Bowl does land in Indianapolis, the event will give Indy a big economic boost. The future of the Colts and city of Indianapolis is highly anticipated with the new stadium and hopes for a Super Bowl.

If anyone is interested in integrating it into this article... a news story source would be good too. --W.marsh 16:07, 14 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I removed "Closed" and "Demolished" from the sidebar. They didn't seem necessary considering it could be 30 years or more until they apply to this stadium.--Letsgomets1212 16:51, 25 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

10% Property Tax Increase

The article indicates that property taxes will be increased by 10% to pay for the stadium. Any truth to that? Jcarlyle 04:02, 16 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Image:Lucasoilplanned.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.

"The Luke"

I'm not going to revert the revert because there's no reason to start an edit war over it, but I have heard "The Luke" as the prevalent nickname the stadium is earning, so I think it is legitimate to include that in the article. Craig R. Nielsen 03:46, 3 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

They should call it The Barn, because it looks like a barn. PolarisSLBM 17:16, 3 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
