Rogers Centre
The Rogers Centre (formerly SkyDome), is a multi-purpose stadium in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, situated next to the CN Tower near the shores of Lake Ontario. It is home to Major League Baseball's Toronto Blue Jays and the Canadian Football League's Toronto Argonauts. While it is primarily a sports venue, Rogers Centre also hosts other large-scale events such as conventions, trade fairs, and concerts.
Notes
- According to the building's owners, correct usage of the former name was SkyDome, without an article. This usage had been more or less accepted outside of Toronto, especially by ESPN, but in everyday conversation 'the Sky Dome' was common. It remains to be seen whether the new name 'Rogers Centre' will replace it in common speech. Although popular media outlets have adopted the new branding (immediately in most cases) there are many people who refuse to accept the 'Rogers Center' as it's true name, and continue to refer to the stadium as 'the Sky Dome.'
