Boothferry Park was a football stadium in Hull, England, which was home to Hull City from 1946 until 2002, when they moved. In later years, financial constraints forced Hull City to allow Kwik Save and Iceland supermarkets to embed themselves into the stadium's structure. Parts of the ground were demolished in early 2008, more than five years after the last game was played there, and the remainder in 2011.
