Invesco Field stadium opened in 1999, replacing the old Mile High stadium in the same location. The home of the Denver Broncos, the stadium seats 76,125 fans. Many fans still refer to the stadium as Mile High. Invesco bowed to popular sentiment for the old venue, and the full name of the stadium is Invesco Field at Mile High.
