So is someone else.

Lucas Oil Stadium is a multi-purpose stadium in downtown Indianapolis.
It replaced the RCA Dome as the home field of the National Football League (NFL)’s Indianapolis Colts and opened on August 16, 2008.
The stadium was constructed to allow the removal of the RCA Dome and expansion of the Indiana Convention Center on its site.
It is located on the south side of South Street, a block south of the former site of the RCA Dome.
Get ready to take a bow.
The stadium’s naming rights belong to the Lucas Oil corporation.
We sense a great partnership blossoming. What do you think?
