|
|

I've been to every NFL stadium except for the Green Bay Packers. I'm a fan of the whole league and just like to watch good old football. Here is my rankings for every NFL venue.
1. Lambeau Field; Haven't been but it deserves #1
2. Heinz Field; Downtown, modern, good fans, food and football
3. Reliant Stadium; Great tailgating and stadium
4. Gillette Stadium; Has a lot of unique features and a great team
5. M & T Bank Stadium; Good fans, tailgating, football and modern
6. Lucas Oil Stadium; Great design, in a good part of town, and very new
7. Met Life Stadium; Most expensive stadium earns it's spot well
8. Lincoln Financial Field; Great seating, Good LED's, great entrance
9. Cowboys Stadium; Massive scoreboard, and new, but expensive
10. Mile High Stadium; Modern future look, good seating, and good fans
11. Soldier Field; Great history, great fans, and great football
12. Raymond James Stadium; Good seating, unique features
13. Century Link Field; great architecture and feeling
14. UP Stadium; Also great architecture and feeling on the inside
15. Paul Brown Stadium; Good design and modern
16. Cleveland Browns Stadium; Modern, good location and feel
17. Arrowhead Stadium; Good atmosphere, and great fans
18. Super Dome; Great city, Cajun culture, and big stadium
19. Georgia Dome; Good location, and pregame entertainment
20. Ford Field; Not much tailgate or pregame but a good feeling inside
21. LP Field; Good fans, and location
22. Bank of America Stadium; Not bad design, decent fans, decent ball
23. Metro Dome; Great fans, a lot of inconveniences
24. Oakland Coliseum; Crazy fans, and atmosphere
25. Sun Life Stadium; Good weather, design, atmosphere
26. Ever Bank Field; decent location, good food, bad football
27. Ralph Wilson Stadium; Great tailgate
28. Candlestick Park; Bad design, just a decent experience
29. Qualcomm Stadium; Not modern, but good weather and tailgate
30. FedEx Field; Everything was just boring and expensive

I've only ever been to two Colts games (ticket prices!) and I can say that either Lucas Oil Stadium is GOAT, or Fedex Field is WOAT.
The difference between those two was staggering. _________________

I like the setup in Philly with having all the stadiums right next to each other. Got to tailgate in the Phillies stadium and then walk over to the Eagles stadium when I went for a game.
Love the Bengals stadium and the tailgating. Best part is it's cheap, relative to other stadiums.
My favorite stadium/experience though was Wembley stadium... _________________
Thanks Rammy...

1) that's awesome for you
2) idk how you can have the field you haven't been to #1...hmm
Everything I have heard about Lucas Oil sounds awesome. I want to be down there combine week once. I know fans can't get in, but football flocks to Indianapolis for a week. Also how the heck did Indy become that place? Why aren't other teams trying to hold the combine?
I'm surprised FedEx Field is so low. Wow. I know about the prices but pretty much anything in DC/NY is expensive, right? _________________

| The Metrodome should be bottom 2. Just a disaster of a stadium, I guess the atmosphere might be the only thing helping its cause. |

I've never been, but I've seen pictures from inside the Oakland Coliseum, and it looks as bad as some of the European soccer stadiums that haven't been renovated since the 1960s. I'm sure the experience would be amazing, but it just looks so run-down. _________________

Agreed, ive been to all three and all three are more intended for baseball. Candlestick has some horrible seats, and it just isnt an attractive stadium. But things will be quite different in several years when they start playing in Santa Clara. |

Always looked forward to new stadiums and the new 49ers looks great. _________________
