While the Atlanta Falcons were in Seattle defeating the Seahawks 34-31 in the NFL on Monday night, their former home, the Georgia Dome, was being demolished.
The 70,000-seater stadium was safely imploded just 25 years after opening to the public.
As well as NFL matches, the dome also hosted events at the 1996 Olympics, WWE Wrestlemania and NBA games.
Press play on the video above to see the dramatic images of the Georgia Dome being razed to the ground.
The Falcons moved to a new £1billion stadium just yards away at the start of this season.
NFL Highlights
Their former home stadium will now provide car parking and a conference centre.
There is a double bill of NFL action on Sky this Thursday. Coverage of Minnesota Vikings @ Detroit Lions begins at 5pm on Sky Sports Action and Sky Sports Main Event, followed by Los Angeles Chargers @ Dallas Cowboys from 9pm.
