Mick Jagger performs during a Rolling Stones show Aug. 10, 1994, at the RCA Dome. "How are things in the RCA Dome?" Jagger asked the crowd, sarcastically spitting out the letters in the dome's new first name. "Maybe you should change the name back to the other name," he said, to cheers. "It's up to you, Indianapolis."
