Three Rivers Stadium, Multi-purpose stadium in Pittsburgh, United States
The stadium structure encompassed 59,000 seats arranged in circular tiers with both baseball and football field configurations at the confluence of three rivers.
Inaugurated in 1970 as a replacement for Forbes Field, Three Rivers Stadium served as home to both Pittsburgh Pirates and Pittsburgh Steelers until 2000.
The stadium hosted numerous sporting milestones, including the 1979 World Series and the 1972 Immaculate Reception during an NFL playoff game.
The playing surface changed from Tartan Turf to AstroTurf, while ground-level seats could rotate between baseball and football arrangements throughout seasons.
Located where the Allegheny, Monongahela, and Ohio rivers meet, the stadium's name reflected its geographical position in Pittsburgh's landscape.
