The controversial stadium lease stipulates the Rams must play all home games at the Edward Jones Dome, the St. Louis Convention and Visitors Commission said today according to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

"We immediately brought this to the Rams' attention and are awaiting their response," the commission, which manages the Dome, said in a statement. 

The CVC's stance on the London games comes on the cusp of negotiations with the Rams about the condition of the Dome. The Rams can opt out of the lease by 2015 if the Dome is not a "first tier" NFL stadium. The CVC must deliver a plan to the Rams by Wednesday explaining how the Dome can be refurbished to meet that standard. That will trigger a series of negotiation deadlines in 2012. The lease, however, does not offer a clear-cut definition of what constitutes "first tier."
