When Did the Cardinals Move to State Farm Stadium?

The Cardinals began playing at their own venue, now called State Farm Stadium, in 2006.

What Was the Old Name of State Farm Stadium?

State Farm Stadium was previously known as University of Phoenix Stadium.ย 

It had that name from 2006 until 2018 when the Cardinals agreed to an 18-year naming rights agreement with State Farm Insurance.
