Sports Authority Field at Mile High

Built adjacent to their previous home of 41 years, , the new stadium features first-class, state-of-the art amenities for the teams and fans alike.

Broncos Stadium History

he Denver Broncos played nearly all of their home games for the first 41 seasons of club history in Miscellaneous ­­ Tone building. Known since 1969 as Mile High Stadium, the facility opened in 1948 as Bears Stadium for the Denver Bears of baseball’s old Western League with long range plans to utilize it for football as well. When Denver became a charter member of the League in 1959, the south stands (8,100 seats) and portable east stands (9,616 seats) were added to give a capacity of 34,657 for football. The Broncos began play in 1960. After Denver voters turned down a stadium bond issue to build an all-purpose metropolitan stadium in 1967, a non-profit group began a fundraising drive with the goal of purchasing the stadium for the city. In February 1968, the group bought the stadium from Rocky Mountain Empire Sports for $1.8 million and presented it to the city of Denver. A 16,000-seat upper deck was immediately constructed over the west stands, raising the Fast Facts capacity to more than 50,000 for the 1968 season. In December 1968, the stadium was renamed Denver Mile High Stadium. Broncos Home Record, 1960-2000 The Broncos posted a home record of 191-109-7 (.634) (Bears Stadium/Mile High Stadium, : in 41 seasons of play from 1960-2000. With the exception University of Denver Stadium) of two games played at the University of Denver Stadium 191-109-7 (.634) (1962 and ‘63 home openers; 1-1 record), every Broncos Broncos Record at Bears Stadium/ home game was played in the single facility known either as Mile High Stadium: Bears Stadium or Mile High Stadium with the club posting a 190-108-7 (.638) 190-108-7 (.638) record in the building. The Broncos went 19-40-2 (.328) as Bears Stadium, 1960-68 19-40-2 (.328) from 1960-68 in Bears Stadium before posting 171-68-5 (.711) as Mile High Stadium, 1969-2000 a 171-68-5 (.711) record from 1969-2000 after the name was changed to Mile High Stadium. Broncos Record at U. of Denver Stadium The stadium was filled for every regular-season game from 1-1 (.500) the beginning of the 1970 season through its final season in First Broncos Game at Bears Stadium 2000. The Broncos sold out 237 consecutive regular-season games, and with postseason contests the total reached 250 Oct. 2, 1960 over the 31-year period. (Denver 31, Oakland 14) Expansion of Mile High Stadium, which began in 1975, was Last Broncos Game at Mile High Stadium completed for the 1977 season to give the Broncos the sev- Dec. 23, 2000 enth-largest home facility in the league. Denver voters passed (Denver 38, San Francisco 9) a $25 million bond issue in 1974 to expand and improve the stadium from its capacity of 51,706 to 75,100. The stadium held 63,532 for the 1976 season, halfway through the project. Bringing the stadium to its final capacity of 76,098 in 1986 was the construction of 60 penthouse suites atop the west stands. One of the unique aspects of Mile High Stadium was its movable east stands. The massive single section, when fully extended, formed a horseshoe configuration for football, and when retracted, was in position for baseball. The three-tiered struc- ture, measuring 535 feet in length, 135 feet in height and 200 feet in depth, weighed nearly nine million pounds and was moved a distance of 145 feet between the two con- figurations. The move was facili- tated by a process involving a thin layer of water on which the struc- ture moved. Water was pumped onto more than 90,000 square feet of runways and formed a .003-inch sheet upon which the stands rested. Hydraulic rams then pushed the stands forward at the rate of three feet per minute, making the move last somewhere around two hours. The Broncos played their home games at Mile High Stadium from their inception in 1960 Demolition of Mile High Stadium until 2000. The facility, built in 1948, was known as Bears Stadium until 1969. was completed in March 2002.
