Frisco, TX

"History in a Pecan Shell"
The St. Louis, San Francisco and Texas Railway was popularly named the "Frisco Line" - their slogan "Ship it on the Frisco" was seen by impatient and irritated drivers everywhere. The town became Frisco City- later shortened to Frisco. Frisco became a shipping point and kept a respectable degree of autonomy all through the 20th century. In 1960 there were less than 1,200 residents, and even by 1980 it had only increased to 3,500. Today the population has increased to 80,969.

Frisco is fast becoming the major sports and shopping destination of North Texas.

• The Dr. Pepper/Seven-Up Ballpark in Frisco accommodates over 10,600 fans and is home to the Frisco RoughRiders Double-A baseball team, an affiliate of the Texas Rangers.
• The Dr. Pepper StarCenter arena is the training facility for the Dallas Stars hockey team and the home for the "Texas Tornado" Junior Hockey League Champions.
• Frisco is now the home for the FC Dallas major league soccer team at Pizza Hut Park. With 20,372 seats, the Park opened in 2005 and is surrounded by 17 tournament-size soccer fields. The Park also serves as a football stadium for Frisco ISD and is available for concerts, public entertainment and community events.
• The Superdrome is a 2,200 seat cycling stadium and features a 250 meter, 44 degree banking inclined track. Located at the Collin County Community College Preston Ridge Campus, it is considered one of the fastest low altitude incline tracks.
• Canyons is a state of the art indoor climbing facility for all ages and abilities, located across from the new Pizza Hut Park.
