Luxury House In Sports Stadium

This luxurious and flamboyant stadium was the brainchild of Roy Hofheinz, a former mayor of Houston and sports super fan who spent $6 million (around $41 million today) to realise his dream of creating a modern-day Roman colosseum that could serve as the world's first multi-purpose, domed sports stadium– and his own five-story home.
