That's really awesome. I hate they let the astrodome go into that condition.

Are they planning demolition?

seems like they can't really decide. It looks like they demo'd part of it in 2013

we actually had the same idea that these guys did this year when we were also drunk at the rodeo but we were too pussy to follow through on it

It's really sad what they've let it become, they need to shite or get off the pot as far as resolving what they're gonna do with it.

I'm surprised there are still seats in there. You would think they could sell all of those.

They did one in 2013 for sure and I thought did another one this past year, so some have been ripped out. I don't think they've torn out all of them though

Seems so stupid that the lights are on. What a waste of energy and money.

They did. These pictures are from 2012 the link says.

They had a garage sale where they sold seats, turf squares, and all sorts of other things a while back.

That's fricking awesome. I have great memories of the Ryan Express and the Electric Slide in that building.

My guess is that the liability insurance increase cancels out the light bill

When I first started following MLB, I saw the very tail end of the AstroDome. Was always was an interesting dome when dealing with the MLB Parks.

Astros has quite different uni colors back then too

Interesting that all the lights and stuff were still working, if they aren't using it anymore.
