Road trip through history

A view of Falcon Stadium at the U.S. Air Force Academy, from Interstate 25 , just north of Colorado Springs, Colo., Nov. 19, 2010. Falcon Stadium opened in 1962, at a cost of $3.5 million, and has a current seating capacity of 52, 480. The stadium was built into a natural bowl southeast of the center of the academic campus. Like the rest of the campus, Falcon Stadium lies at the base of the Rampart Range of the Rocky Mountains. The design of the stadium is unbalanced, with the western side having two large grandstand tiers above the main bowl and the eastern having a single tier bordered by seven separate sections of grandstands.
