Empower Field at Mile High (stadium named for elevation)

Empower Field at Mile High is the home stadium of the NFL's Denver Broncos and is located on the historic Mile High Stadium site. The stadium's name references Denver's 'Mile High' elevation; the playing field sits at roughly 5,280 feet above sea level. The current facility opened in 2001 (originally Invesco Field at Mile High) on the site of the former Mile High Stadium and is often cited in discussions of altitude effects on athletic performance and ball flight.
