It is a shame that teams hold cities and towns hostage when it comes to asking for a NEW STADIUM. Most of the time when level heads prevail mountains are moved and then things happen. Unfortunately that did not happen in San Diego and Oakland. It seems like about 20 years is the life span for an NFL stadium. Although in baseball you have 3 stadiums that are considered ancient, Fenway Park, Wrigley Field and Dodgers Stadium. Yet no one wants to tear them down and make parking lots of them. We need to learn from our past. Look at the former home of the Chargers, as recently as 2003, it had refurbishment done to attract SUPER BOWLS and it did but 15 years later it was seen as a losing proposition. Where are peoples heads at. To imagine a stadium venue for SUPER BOWL 100, that will be an interesting idea.

if you wanted to build a new stadium it would take more than a billion dollars. convincing an investor to loan out that kinda cash for a arena is unlikely. This is a solution to that problem, yes it might not be what every person wants but at least you'll still get new stadiums. Also stadiums should be shown off in the most populated of areas considering their price tag yet most stadiums are in the middle of nowhere off of a highway. I'd like to be able to dine and watch live football at an okay distance for under 3000$. This would make that available.

So they are gonna build stadium like in europa. yeah. not really reinventing America every football stadium in Engeland is the main thing of a disrict in the city with food & drinks outside just before the game start and the football club is a really big part of the community in the neighbourhoud. it's just a discussion of maybe the traditioneel way of stadiums in the world is beter than american stadiums, wich are there own centrums. and that discussion or change is intresting becuase American stadiums are really unique and great.

This guy is dreaming. 70k venue stripped down every few weeks to reveal a public park?
If you're gonna be really nuts, build it at the bottom of a really big business tower or residential tower so you can't even see it as a bowl from the outside. Yes have the bars in there, and also have concerts/theater shows/cirque du soleil/skating events in it. Just soundproof the shit out of it. Imagine it as Madison Sq Gdn or royal Albert hall housed inside the base of a landmark building like empire state/freedom tower etc

This doesn't work. stadiums are multiuse. there's football, baseball, concerts, graduations, college sports, daily tours of it, wrestling, UFC, Boxing and other events happening almost everyday of the week. my perfect stadium would be futuristic in appearance, integrated with public transit(subway or light rail stop in the stadium, a row of bars and restaurants nearby with clean streets and accessible streets in case people don't take public transit. that's the wave of the future IMO

This is a really dumb idea. A NFL stadium is made to house at least 60, 000 people and an owner like Jerry Jones has proved you can use the stadium all year round with different venues and tours. Not every city can help pay for a billion dollar stadium but that is the future to keep people coming to watch the gameS live instead of on a 4K TV at home. His idea would never work

5: 42 That aerial shot is a bit misleading. That city is Melbourne, Australia. Nowhere near a NFL team. Also, in that shot, part of the grandstand is undergoing renovation. Your video's message is that stadia should be able to transform and implying that the MCG is one such stadium. Nothing is further from the truth. It holds approx. 90, 000 people at all times

im more concerned about raiders moving to vegas, because you know the Monster Jam World Finals at San Boyd Stadium? well its in Las Vegas. so im afraid they might move it to raiders stadium a little more north near downtown las vegas, if they do, i will be blaming the NFL.

Maybe the government should completely ignore these people and let them make their own things with their own money and not destroy the economy even more by subsidizing these useless and purely medial plots of land. I like football, but this is actually awful.

-We tried integrating Sporting Park into the surrounding area so it's not an isolated stadium in the middle of a field. -
And Sporting Park is exactly that, it's an isolated stadium in the middle of a field and a sea of asphalt.
