Stringfellows

I've had a lot of sport in there

obsessed

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strahov_Stadium

Been there and it was strange.

Went to watch an Aussie rules game whilst in Melbourne, huge stadium, quite impressive.

The sport it's self was like something you'd make up on the playground at school

Was a good close game though and fairly entertaining.

Mine are US Bias but MSG is fantastic for Hockley & basketball as was the Old Yankee stadium before they rebuilt it. If you ever get the chance & you like baseball.... Fenway (Boston) and Wrigley (Chicago) are historic old stadiums which are now a real rarity !!!!! Both have been preserved and will most likely be around for another 100 Years. For sheer noise. The Superdome in New Orleans is the loudest place I've ever seen a game (NO Saints)... Like with everything there ..... 99% of the crowd are hammered !

Not been to the MCG but the one in Syndey is fantastic

Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Not been much football played there since it was opened, so I guess this stadia is applicable.

Agree with MSG being great, just find the American sports shiyte.

The Thunderdome.

Went to watch the Falcons at the Mercedes Benz Stadium in Atlanta. Was pretty impressive.

Haven't been to too many tbh.

MSG for WNBA (all that was on when I was there).

MacHale Park for GAA.

Aviva, Twickenham and the Stoop for rugby.

Hove for cricket.

Basketball Arena London 2012.

That's about it.

Probably MSG was the best. But dunno if it was cos it was a different experience to normal. Rugby stadiums aren't too different to football ones.

Croke Park.

MGM Grand in Vegas is fun for a fight. I saw Floyd Merryweather ... crappy seats, but great atmosphere

Was at the recent Taylor fight in the O2 great venue for boxing

The best stadium for me, and I might be a little biased, but the Principality Stadium in Cardiff is just awesome.

There is not a bad seat, and it is located right in the city center where all the pubs, bars and restaurants are, literally it cannot be closer the center if it tried.

A truly magical stadium.

Have to agree with this.

And the kiosks can pull something like 8 pints at a time with the one handle Cuts the queues right down.

shame you ran about mental in the 80s so I can't have a pint at football matches now

Penn State college football would be the largest I have been in, mugged Ohio State late in front of 100,000+ but plenty of college stadiums hold 100,000+ each week.

Numerous NFL games as well and the stadiums are all very good. Went to a Kansas City chiefs game and at the time they set a record that day for loudest stadium noise in history anywhere, I can vouch for it being absolutely deafening for three hours, ears were ringing for hours afterwards.

Thai boxing stadiums are good fun and very entertaining.

Went to see the 1st day of Aussie v Pakistan fixed cricket game in Sydney, was a great day out.

It was a previous life

I've changed

montreal bell center. very nice with all the stanley cup banners hanging from the rafters and commemorative plaques all through the corridors.
the beer is very expensive though considering the team is owned by molson breweries.

Yeah all the baseball stadiums are excellent now and love the retro look. Used to go to the Cincinnati Reds games quite a bit, always a good day out.

yeah...about as good a stadium as i've been in....I can see it over the water from our golf course actually

Didn't it only cost £80-100m to spin round & rebuild from the old Arms park as well...puts Wembley to shame just for that

The MCG is certainly a worldly colossus like a Roman amphitheatre, and Aussie Rules is a very skillfull game when you get the hang of it

Lords for me. Not the loudest of arenas but the atmosphere always seems tense.
