Stadium
The official stadium of Bologna is the Stadio Renato Dall'Ara. Dall'Ara is the biggest sports building of Bologna and its name is taken from the ex-president of club Renato Dall'Ara, who died three days before the final for Serie A's Scudetto. Its capacity is 38,279. The curva Bulgarelli (in English, Bulgarelli curve), the curve of Bologna's ultras, is dedicated to the famous football player Giacomo Bulgarelli, recently deceased (21 February 2009).
