Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Stadium is a multi-purpose stadium in Washington, D.C. It is located about two miles due east of the US Capitol building, near the west bank of the Anacostia River and adjacent to the D.C. Armory. It opened in 1961. RFK Stadium was home to a National Football League team, two Major League Baseball teams, five professional soccer teams, two college football teams, a bowl game and a USFL team. It has hosted five NFC Championship games, two MLB All-Star Games, men's and women's World Cup matches, nine men's and women's first-round soccer games of the 1996 Olympics, three MLS Cup matches, two MLS All-Star games and numerous American friendlies and World Cup qualifying matches. It has hosted college football, college soccer, baseball exhibitions, boxing matches, a cycling race, a Le Mans auto race, marathons and dozens of major concerts and events. RFK was one of the first major stadiums designed specifically as a multi-sport facility to host baseball and football. Although other stadiums already served this purpose, such as Cleveland Stadium and Baltimore's Memorial Stadium , RFK was one of the first to employ what became known as the circular cookie-cutter design. It is owned and operated by Events DC , a quasi-public organization affiliated with the city government under a long-term lease from the National Park Service, which owns the land; the lease expires in 2038.
