A note about SoFi most don't know: It has no air conditioning. It relies on it's western side being completely open for ocean winds to blow in and cool the inside. In theory it should be great as it is only 4 miles from the beach, but it doesn't really work during the record high temperatures Los Angeles has been experiencing this past year. On field temperature during the Rams-Bills game on week 1 was 84 degrees, there were similar temperatures during the Super Bowl, as LA was experiencing a major heat wave with outside temperatures reaching well over 90 degrees.

For those responding, or thinking, that SoFi Stadium needs AC, it's actually open air with an independent canopy. The opening that OP mentioned was supposed to be the way to help keep the stadium cooler, but without wind and with high temps, it won't have the desired temperature mitigation effects.

Glad to see 3 CFL stadiums in there. I'm also an Orioles fan and I used to go to Baltimore every summer in high school and I'll never forget walking into Oriole park for the first time it was amazing, especially after seeing memorial the year before. Up to then I'd only seen memorial in Baltimore and exhibition stadium and skydome in Toronto and Oriole Park was and is just so far above them and anything I've seem since, haven't been to PNC but I hear from Orioles fans it's great too.
I'm from Winnipeg and I walk by IG Field every day to get to the university campus. Every time I walk by, I always look up and think "damn, that's a beautiful stadium."
Love to see 3/9 CFL Stadiums make the list (BC, Mosaic and IG)

Paul allen really liked audio engineering. The blazer's arena has something similar to the seahawks where it funnels noise back down to the court. It genuinely makes a massive difference. A side result is that other shows in the arena are also much louder, duh. Monster trucks are already loud as hell but in that arena, the noise is really something else. Also with how dry and hot our summers have become, I will never see rain as depressing LOL. Man I hate summer.

Besides Mosaic Stadium not being completed on Google Earth, the Street View part around it can be unique. You'll see the Mosaic Stadium, and the as you go few blocks down, see old Street View images of Taylor Field. Not sure if Google has updated that since, but if so, it was pretty unique when using Street View.
When it comes to Lumen Field, the same features that make it so tough for visiting teams to play there when it comes to the Seahawks also applies to the Sounders of MLS as well especially when the whole stadium is open for soccer (not just the lower bowl & bleachers) like it was for the 2019 MLS Cup & the CONCACAF Champions League Final earlier this year & the Sounders won both matches.

I finally got to visit the Benz this year for an Atlanta United game and the halo screen was wild to me to see in person. it's so easy to look up and get an instant replay of the action but it's not so low that it's obtrusive to sight lines. also, the supporter's section is $30 General Admission so I ended up getting to sit in the second row behind the home goal and got to wave one of the flags.

As a Pittsburgher, it breaks my heart that PNC Park has to host such a trash product in it. That ball park deserves to be full and have a successful team for how amazing it is. It's the best sporting venue I've personally been to. At least it's gotten the attention it deserves sometimes (IE when it hosted the All-Star game).

Allianz Field in St Paul, MN is similar in design to Estadio BBVA. I took in a soccer match their with my dad a couple of years ago. The walls are a beautiful transparent surface that can be lit up at night. The only downside I saw from my visit was it sits in the middle of a shopping district, so parking might be problematic (we took a train so I'm not sure).
7:00 I'm from Tuscaloosa County. I've never heard of Tuscaloosca lol. In all seriousness, I'm kinda surprised Bryant Denny is your highest ranked college football stadium. But I do like the symmetry of it.
Another great list on this channel
Thank you for the Baseball W for Pittsburgh, we barely have anything when it comes to the sport other then the stadium
As a fan of LSU, I assume Tiger Stadium isn't going to be on here. Edit: As expected, neither Lincoln Memorial nor Tiger Stadium made it on this list.
I was in the USU Aggie Marching band when we went to the LA bowl at SoFi. It really is a fantastic stadium.
Nice. I live in BC Canada and was at BC place the other night. It is actually a nice stadium for its age. Great renovations done a while back. It was a nice night and the roof was open.
Went to rolling loud in Miami this year and it was on the hard rock stadium grounds it really is a dope stadium to see in person especially when it’s lit up at night
BC place no.19? Vancouver represent baby! I also went to IG field in summer 2019 to watch the Raiders vs Packers NFL pre season game, right after my flight landed. The Raiders won at the dying minute, but the whole atmosphere was super fun. The stadium is very nice, very open.
YYYEEEESSSSSS MORE STADIUM VIDEOS
Great list! Although I do think Little Caesars Arena in Detroit or TQL stadium in Cincinnati should at least be honorable mentions! Both are definitely worth a visit, even if that means being in Ohio or Detroit
I would definitely add the new Hayward field to the list one of the coolest stadiums I’ve ever been in.

I went to Camden Yards and it is beautiful. Parked next to the stadium where the ravens play and it wasnt a hassle to get in. The stadium is beautiful. The warehouse, the Jumbotron in center, and the area right behind the bullpens are all very nice. Also what you cant see from the outside is aslo amazing. I sat in the 3rd deck, the nosebleeds and right next the escalator was a cool little kids play area. Also its super easy to get food, its just pretty expensive. My dad spent like 200 dollars just on water.
Whaaaaaaa? Oracle Park (SF) should’ve been on this list… great views of the bay and the food are amazing upgraded a few things here and there!
Violent contests in exchange for your own free will, sundays, yes! 😂had me cracking up!
That mountain You can see from the BBVA stadium is called cerro de la silla and is the symbol of the city of Monterrey. You can see it in the stadium of the rival team (Tigres U.A.N.L.) too.
There's some sweet videos out there that go into further detail on how these stadiums were made, specifically SoFi stadium. I think it was done by Science Channel! They had some sweet engineering considerations like how to deal with earthquakes in the design.
I do agree that getting Ubers from Jerryworld is hard. I went to the Thanksgiving Game against the Raiders last year. Lots of Uber Drivers were price gouging so me, some Cowboys Fans, and bunch of Raiders fans jumped into an Hotel Bus, tipped the driver like $200 total and he took us to the hotel he was assigned to where we managed to get normal priced Ubers from there.

For those who haven't seen my comments about this when he's covered American Family Field (fka Miller Park) in the past, I'll just mention that three people died in a crane collapse during installation of one of the blades that make up the roof. It's one of the most infamous crane collapses in the modern era of construction, in no small part because a safety inspector who arrived on site at the start of the pick that brought down the crane filmed the collapse, and that footage is shown to anyone who works on a jobsite with any kind of crane work as part of their day-one orientation.

3 CFL stadiums, not too bad. We're spared the ads at BMO Field in Toronto as it's's the only (hybrid) grass field in the CFL and they can't scrub the ads every game for the soccer games. The real issue is that it wasn't built to accommodate the length of Canadian football (we have and extra 30 yards total length) as it was supposed to be so the endzones are a little short and one of them is turf because it gets covered with seats for soccer.

My big takeaway from this is I didn't realize how many understated and great stadiums they have in the CFL.
Ok a small bone to pick Five Points, you did B.C. Place but one of your criteria's was easy access, this stadium is anything but easy and be elbow to elbow with everyone else to leave or enter, it is a night mare like most downtown stadiums. Mosiac Stadium in Regina and IG Field in Winnipeg were good choices but you left the nicest stadium off the list and that is Rogers Place in Edmonton!!!! This is by far the nicest of any in Canada. Yes it is an Arena, technically not a stadium but you choose stadiums that were enclosed also so an arena and a stadium becomes the same.

Another thing to note about Autzen is that it's design allows it to get MUCH louder than it's 54,000 person capacity really should. It's registered at 127 decibels in the past, that's louder than a jet engine. They call it The House of Loud for a reason. What's even crazier is that Husky Stadium in Washington has registered sound levels at a whopping 133 decibels meaning that if you ever attend a packed Ducks v. Husky rivalry game, regardless of the venue, you'd better bring ear protection or you'll be dealing with tinnitus for a week after lol
