If we're sticking strictly to football, then I'm a big fan of Quest, Gillette, Heinz and The Link.

Reliant is the best domed stadium I've been in. I hear Ford Field is nice as well.

FWIW, I know a couple of guys that travel extensively to NFL and MLB games, and they all say that PNC Park in Pittsburgh is the best stadium in professional sports.

I like Cowboys stadium well enough. You have to admit that jumbotron or whatever they call it is simply amazing.

I find the technology in this one out of this world. A rolling field? Incredible.

The charm of Wrigley is tough to beat.

I simply love Camden Yards. Awesome place to see a baseball game.

But give me Arrowhead any day over any of these!

JerryWorld to me just resembles his team... flashy with no substance.

Anyone been there? Am I wrong?

Only half wrong...;) I've been to a few Cowboy games and IMO the stadium is pretty darn cool form the outside - especially at night. However, the inside is nothing special. It all looks kinda generic. The HUGE scoreboard looks very odd. Anyway, just my opinion.

Besides ARROWHEAD - my favorite stadium that I've seen in person is the Seahawks Stadium. It's also very high tech. Other cool stadiums I've been to are Soldier Field and Lambeau. Both very cool, especially Soldier Field.

My absolute LEAST favorite that I've been to is INVESCO. Every time I look at it, I get dizzy. It looks awkwardly lopsided from every reference point - Again just my opinion.

I compare it to the mothership in Independence Day. My favorite fact about Cowboys Stadium is that it's literally across the street from a Wal-Mart.

Whoever designed that is an architectural genius.

Looks like a stadium was left out in the sun too long.....or someone really sucks at pottery.

I was told it costs $75 to park for games at Cowboy Stadium. Can anyone confirm this?

PNC looks awesome, I'd love to go there.

BUT don't forget that the Jets Stadium turns blue when the Giants are playing.:rolleyes:

The Meadowlands Motel sucks. Add to that the fact that when they were building the new one on top of the old ones parking lot, you had to park 10 miles away and get shuttled over on SCHOOL BUSES. When the game was over, 20,000 people using 50 school buses was fun as hell.....3 hours just to get to our car. Maybe that has made me hate the new one so much.

I wasnt there during a game, but ive heard from others its like $50 bucks, but that there is cheaper parking farther away, that obviously you have to walk farther.
