Now it is the House of Stink.
Carisbrook's hallowed turf was transformed into a race track with the help of a protective layer of geo fabric, plywood and about 6000 tons of dirt.
The surface has browned-off significantly but has otherwise held up really well, Carisbrook groundsman Coryn Huddy said.
"To be fair, it is better than I thought," he said.
"Obviously, it is brownish.
"But all going well we should get it up and running in the next three weeks."
There is no significant damage, which is great, but if you have taken a stroll past the venue recently you would have noticed a rather pungent odour.
The new beige-coloured surface smells of socks.
"That is the moisture which has been building up in the grass while it has been sitting under the boards.
"It will come right."
Huddy said Trevor Brooks and the team at Humps, Bumps and Jumps had done a superb job protecting the playing surface, and the clean up went smoothly as well.
The team began removing the track at 10.30pm on Saturday and had finished by 4.30pm the following day.
Carisbrook will host the Nitro Circus on February 19, six days before the Highlanders' first home game but Huddy was not anticipating any problems with the short turnaround.
"The Nitro Circus is a slightly different set-up to what we've just had.
They use rubber matting and come in on Tuesday or Wednesday for the build and it is smaller sections of the turf.
They won't be using big plywood boards, so it won't be a drama.
"Supercross and events like this are unique for Dunedin and something we need to keep chasing.
"It is good for the city and good for the region."
