daquixers_is_back Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 I see Bills games at Ralph Wilson stadium (usually) around 2-4 times a year, so Im not going to say that. I would like to visit: Reliant Stadium - when it first came out it amazed me and I still want to see it live New Cardinals Stadium - wooh that looks nice ... Seahawks Stadium - I like the design/shape of it There is probably more but Im too tired Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick in* england Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 I get to see one game a year at the Ralph if I am lucky - so it come s at the top of my list every time... But I'd really like to go to Meadowlands for a Giants game, Lincoln Financial Field, University of Phoenix Stadium and Wembly Stadium (when it's finished!). I would also love to go to the Nou Camp and Wrigley Field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bartshan-83 Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 1). Notre Dame Stadium...but I'm biased. 2). The Ralph (just because I rarely make it up there). 3). Lincoln Financial Field (Eagles) and Citzens Bank Park (Phillies)...seriously people should make it down to BOTH of these stadiums if they ever get a chance. They're both brand new and state of the art. The Linc is like an updated M&T Bank Stadium (Ravens) which is also very nice. I don't even like baseball that much and I could care less about the Phillies...but somehow Citzens Park just makes it enjoyable. 4). With regards to your Churchill Downs play, I'd say that I prefer Pimlico (where they have the Preakness) in Baltimore. But I think when I'm older I would like to make it back to the Derby and sit in some nice seats. 5). Although it made me sick to my stomach, The Big House (Michigan) is pretty fking awesome. On my list to see: 1). Penn St. 2). Tennessee (had the chance when ND played them but I blew it). 3). Yankee Stadium 4). The Seahawks Stadium..whatever its called is looks pretty tight. 5). The Hawaii Stadium that they play the Probowl in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill from NYC Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 My list begins and ends at RWS. To me, it isn't about being fancy. Who needs that? If I want fancy I can put on a suit and take my wife out to dinner. The Ralph is about familes, friends, fans that care, and truly nice people.

apuszczalowski Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 Places I have been to Skydome/Rogers Centre - For Baseball and a Basketball game (Jordans last game as a Bull against Toronto, not last game as a Bull) and a couple concerts Not bad for Baseball, especially with the new field and other upgrades, but way too big Air Canada Centre - Only for concerts, not a bad arena but nothing particularly special about it Copps Colesium (in Hamilton) - Only for concerts, definitly not a place that a pro sports team will play in without alot of upgrades HSBC Arena - For many Sabres games and a couple concerts, What can you say, home of the Sabres, great place to watch a game The Aud - Saw one Sabres game there before it closed, small and definitly needed to be upgraded, but it was the home of the Sabres so can't complain RWS - Went to see a game last winter against the Pats, sat at around midfield, about 5 rows up. Definitly not the most modern or state of the art place, but definitly an experience. Cold, snowy, windy, and no one complaining about the weather (just the play on the field) Wrigley Field - many have said they would like to go ther, definitly a place to go see. Sat on the third baseline against the railing right at third base, caught a foul ball but gave it away to some little kid (and called an idiot for the rest of the trip because of it) The new Soldier Field - Does look a bit like a spaceship crashed into the old one, but a very nice stadium with great views. Places I would like to go to The new stadium in Phoenix - New and supposed to be one of the best Detroits Ford Field - Looks like a nice stadium to see a game Lambeau field - Just like RWS, I want to go there just for the experience Yankee stadium - Its a must being one of the originals (even though I don't like the yankees) Fenway Park - I would love to go sit on top of the green monster, and like the yankees, its an original (even though i don't like the Sox either) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuckincincy Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 Offerman Stadium. I loved the old Bisons...if you brought in tix for the home opener the day before and attended city schools, you got the day off to go to the game! I got to see the great Luke Easter play... http://www.buffalosportshallfame.com/1997/luke_easter.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PNC Park- Saw Detroit play there this summer. Park was MUCH more than I expected. Wrigley- but twas a night game Yankee Stadium Dodger Stadium Pauley Pavilion Goodison Park- Liverpool, England. Home of Everton FC. I have family in Liverpool, big time Everton fans, that schit is crazy!

Buftex Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 I would have to say, for football, Reliant Stadium in Houston is pretty damn nice....the tailgaiting thing is not great, but the Stadium itself is top notch. My only complaint, when I went to see the Bills/Texans there in 2002, it was a gorgeous October day outside, in the high sixties. There was a 20% chance of rain, so they closed the roof...of course, there is always a chance of rain in Texas, it rarely ever rains though, until January-February... Watching a football game in indoor lighting is just odd...I will still be there in a few weeks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
