Texas Stadium Imploded by Oklahoma Demolition Firm

Dykon Explosive Demolition brings down stadium with 1,600 pounds of explosives.


In less than a minute, 2,715 pounds of explosives turned the former home of the Dallas Cowboys into a pile of rubble. Its famous roof fell to shreds atop it all.

 

Thousands of people – politicians, former players, diehard Dallas Cowboys fans – watched from the parking lots, highways and hills surrounding the famous building and cheered when it came down as if the Cowboys had just scored a touchdown. Thousands more watched the implosion live on local television, and residents reported feeling the blast as far away as Farmers Branch and East Dallas. Read rest of story at the Dalls Morning News
