== Description ==
[[Category:Image Needed]]
Stated to be completed in 1979, the stadium is possibly named as a reference to the [[wp:Hymen|hymen]] (implying a loss of virginity), or to Hyman Roth, a Miami-based character in [[wp:The Godfather Part II|The Godfather Part II]]. The name can also be a play on the words "high man", which would be clearly a reference to someone "getting high", a slang term for someone [[wp:Hallucination|hallucinating]] after the use of drugs. The stadium is surrounded by a thin stretch of parking spaces and driveway, and also boasts a pair of helipads, one of which spawns a [[Maverick]] in GTA Vice City Stories.
 
=== Events ===
The stadium is known to host a variety of events throughout its appearance.
 
In GTA Vice City, the stadium's interior is depicted with a multipurpose arrangment, featuring a oval track on the outskirts surrounding a central arena. The oval track is used for [[Hotring]], a NASCAR-style racing events, while the arena is adopted for used in [[Bloodring]], a demolition derby event, and [[Dirtring]], a dirt bike stunt show. The events are rotated every day (Hotring → Bloodring → Dirtring), and are only available to the player between 8:00 pm (20:00 hour) and 12:00 midnight (00:00 hour).
 
In GTA Vice City Stories, the stadium is adopted for use as a concert venue for [[Phil Collins]], as seen in "[[Kill Phil: Part 2]]" and "[[In the Air Tonight]]". The stadium is also part of the "[[Hyman Memorial O.D.T.]]" point-to-point side-quest.
