    Favorite stadium?

    Here's another favorite thread, guys. Let's hear stories about what your favorite stadium is in the NFL.

    For me I've always liked Invesco/Sports Authority. The area around the stadium is beautiful. The lights are unique because of their formation of the wave. It's just a great place to see a game on TV, unfortunately I've never been there in person. However, my grandparents used to live in Colorado about 45 minutes or so outside of Pike's Peak, so I would always visit and get Broncos stuff including a Media Guide in 2001 that had a big feature on the stadium.

    Another great place to see a televised game is Reliant Stadium. I'm not sure why, but every time I watch a game in Houston the uniforms always stand out more, the crowd seems really into it, it's just a great atmosphere.

    So let's here it, fellas.

    Superdome, yeah I know how shocking I'd say that lol. Nothing beats the atmosphere during the game(especially primetime games) and the tailgate is always a plus

      Heck yeah. The atmosphere has definitely improved ever since Payton and Brees came to town. To me that was a terrible place for a game until post-Katrina. The crowd was dull, half-nonexistent, and 90% of people outside the city didn't care about the Saints. But now that NoLa has found their identity as a city in general, and have hope, the SuperDome and the Crescent City is an amazing place to be.

        are we rating crowds or stadiums? i always liked the superdome because you can get hard alcohol there not just a beer I like the old cowboys stadium it was unique, just the right size and there wasnt a bad seat in the place.

          Just favorite stadium for whatever reason. Whether it be unlimited amounts of alcohol or really clean bathrooms or anything.

            I'm going to homer here and say L.P. Field. Though I've only been to two different stadiums (LP and GA Dome). I've been to about a dozen games at LP and never had a bad seat.

              The Superdome is a terrible place to watch a game.

              The Superdome is GREAT place to be involved in a game.


              There's a big difference.

                I've never been to an NFL game but I suspect i'd love it if I were at Lambeau.

                Best on TV to me would be pre-renovation Soldier Field.

                  I'm sorry, did you say that you haven't ever been to a Broncos game, or that you haven't ever seen the stadium up close and personal as well?

                  If it's the latter, it is seriously a monster to drive by. When on I-25 S, you literally have a moment where it's dead smack in front of you, as if you're about to drive right into it. I've almost gotten into car accidents admiring that gargantuous beauty.

                  My favorite of the bunch might be Qwest Field. On the south end of the stadium, you can look out past the arch-shaped stands and see all of downtown, although not really in view of the Space Needle. On the north end, if you're high enough, you get to view some of the great architecture from Safeco Field. The deep see green and blue from the Seahawks also really helps to look of the entire stadium, and although there is no retractable roof actually in place there, the look of it matches Safeco pretty well and helps with its beauty IMO. It sure is something worth gazing over:

                    I've only to been to one stadium so The Cardinals stadium is it but I love it. Nice and cool inside, and it gets pretty loud in there when the roof is closed. The field is grass and its beautiful.

                        Gotcha. Football games are overrated to go to live, they are much better to watch on TV. I'm not saying they aren't a blast to watch live, I'm just saying that you're probably not missing out on everything. At least make sure to go to professional baseball games to tide yourself over for that live experience.

                        By the way, my second favorite stadium is Lincoln Financial Field.

                          I would disagree that going to games live is overrated. The tailgating, hanging out with other fans, sceaming as loud as you can on defense, feeling the cheers after a touchdown is like no other. Its one of the greatest American traditions imo.

                            Only pro stadiums I've been to are old meadowlands and new meadowlands, so new meadowlands is my favorite, though I wasn't all that impressed with it compared to stadiums in other sports I've been too.

                            TV, Kansas City seems pretty cool, Heinz Field looks great. Lambeau too.

                              I think he was talking more about NFL games than football games in general. The NFL game experience isnt anything compared to a college game.
