List of events at Soldier Field

Soldier Field in 2006
The Chicago Bears have played at Soldier Field for over 40 years. Here they are playing the Philadelphia Eagles at Soldier Field September 28, 2008.

Soldier Field is a stadium that opened in 1924. It has primarily served as the home field of the Chicago Bears professional football club for over four decades, but it also hosted numerous other events in its more than 90 years of existence (and was not made the home to the Chicago Bears until 1971, as prior to that season the Bears played at Wrigley Field). The Bears' intent was originally to move from Wrigley Field to Northwestern's Dyche Stadium, but that move was blocked by Evanston as well as the Big Ten Conference, so they later took the City of Chicago up on their offer to move into Soldier Field where they have since played. Soldier Field has hosted a great variety and quantity of events since it opened.[1][2][3][4]

FEBRUARY 17, 2013 - SOLDIER FIELD, CHICAGO Notre Dame 2, Miami University 1 – Playing in its first-ever outdoor hockey game in program history, the University of Notre Dame built a two-goal lead and held off a late Miami University rally to earn a 2-1 victory in front of 52,051 fans at Soldier Field in Chicago, Ill. "It was a great atmosphere and an unbelievable experience," Notre Dame defenseman Sam Calabrese said. The game featured stellar play from both goaltenders, including Notre Dame’s Steven Summerhays, who stopped 22 of 33 shots fired his way on the day. Mario Lucia got the scoring started for the Fighting Irish when he whipped a one-timer past RedHawks net-minder Ryan McKay at 12:42 in the second period. Notre Dame added to its lead early in the third period when Jeff Costello banged in a rebound of Anders Lee shot to give the Irish a two-goal advantage. Miami cut the Irish’s lead in half a little over a minute later thanks to a goal by Kevin Morris, but Summerhays and the Notre Dame defense stood tall and fought off the late charge. Wisconsin 3, Minnesota 2 – Wisconsin used three second-period goals to build a lead and withstood a third-period surge to defeat Minnesota, 3-2, at Soldier Field. John Rumpel recorded 36 saves, with 15 of those stops coming in the opening 20 minutes. "His performance in the first period allowed us to get our feet out and underneath us," Badgers coach Mike Eaves said. "Then we rode an explosive period in terms of goal scoring for us." The Badgers scored all three of their goals in a remarkable 3 minutes and 19 seconds in the second period as Kevin Schulze, Brendan Woods and Sean Little all found the back of the net. Minnesota mounted a furious rally in the closing period, scoring twice, but Rumpel came up with his biggest save of the day when he turned away the Golden Gophers’ final shot at the buzzer to preserve the win.
