Texas Stadium Implosion Video – Watch the Demolition


Some of you may already know that the Dallas Cowboys finally demolished Texas Stadium, what you may not know is that 11-year-old Casey Rogers pushed the button (controlled implosion). Another thing you may look for is the implosion video, which of course, we managed to get our hands on, for our readers.

Texas Stadium Implosion

A huge explosion and a wild booming sound (that you can hear in the video below) that’s all there is from the Texas Stadium after being torn into dust. The “show” was viewed by thousands of fans who gathered just a few hundred feet from the site which sits on a 78-acres spot in Irving, Texas.

The Texas Stadium implosion was sponsored by Kraft and was meant as a promotional means for their new Cheddar Explosion line of mac & cheese. So how exactly did little Casey Rogers got the chance to put the whole building down? He won an essay contest that wanted you to write about how you’d make a difference in your own community.

Kudos to Casey, I bet that was a nice blast for the little one.

Masters Tournament 2010 Leaderboard Has Phil Mickelson on Top, Tiger Woods is in the Cards


The Masters 2010 Leaderboard is hinting to an exciting final round, as Phil Mickleson nailed his first outright lead, while K.J. Choi joining Lefty as second best for now. Third-round leader Lee Westwood is followed by 50-year-old Fred Couples and Tiger Woods who still have a chance at it.

Speaking of Lee Westwood, he began the day with a one-stroke lead, but failed a three-putt bogey at No. 9 and dropped behind Mickelson and Choi — trailing them by a single shot.

As for the recently sex scandal-involved Tiger Woods, he’s moving around slowly. After a terrible start, hitting bogey on three of the first six hole, Woods got back on track a little by shooting a 2-under 70. But he’s not surprised by his comeback : “I usually put myself in contention most of the time here. And this year, I’m right there,” he said.

Meanwhile, fifty-year-old Fred Couples is only two shots back from the podium, with real chances at becoming the oldest major champion in golf history.

Who’s your favorite, guys?
