Just wondering if you have any favourite stadia?

My favourite is Old Trafford - Manchester United- capacity 68,000 soon to be 75,000 (it's a bad picture :/)



Plus I think that the Nou Camp (Barcelona) - capacity well over 100,000 - is a bit special



Do you have any favourites?

Wrigley Field
CAPACITY: 38765
PLAYING SURFACE: Grass
YEAR OPENED: 1914

Wrigley Field was built in 1914 and is the second oldest ballpark in the major leagues behind Boston's Fenway Park (1912). Originally known as Weeghman Park, Wrigley Field was the site of Babe Ruth's historic "called shot", when he allegedly pointed to the outfield bleachers during the 1932 World Series and then hit Charlie Root's next pitch for a homer. One tradition of Wrigley Field is the flying of a flag bearing "W" or "L" atop the scoreboard after a game. A white flag with a blue "W" indicates a victory; a blue flag with a white "L" denotes a loss. Wrigley has the smallest seating capacity in the National League.

San Siro is also pretty special. Being welsh, obviously the Millenium stadium is pretty good. Not for anything particularly welsh though

Cheers

I am 99% probably lying in bed right now... so don't blame me for crappy typing

Yes, the San Siro is amazing(ly big) Plus the name is enough to fill you with awe.

The new Wembley looks cool, although I prefer the current system of travelling around the country.
