The moat in the Italian stadium is for safety. Stadia Azteca in Mexico has the same feature so not only do you have to climb a fence to get onto the pitch but you have to clear a moat. crazy soccer hooligans
Since the stadium fetish will never be satisfied, I got a good idea: Nicest hockey arenas in Europe. I’m curious as to what their arenas look like compared to ours here in the US
Much wider rinks. Much more integrated stadiums into the surrounding environment. US cities are huge in comparison, and really spread out, so big buildings aren't really out of place.
5:38 Kenilworth Road is the most amazing and unique stadium I have ever been to. Attendances have been on the fall not because of fans opinions, but because they keep reducing capacity for 21st century safety standards. (Most games are sell outs) I remember walking into the away stand and looking down on a woman putting her clothes up to dry in her garden 😂 proper old school ground.
Yeah. Some of those on this list are actually phenomenal, and have no business being on this list. Ingalls Ice Rink is stunning. I was blown away by the venue the first time that I caught a Yale home hockey game. The architecture is phenomenal, particularly its central internal support (reminiscent of the shape of the St. Louis Arch, which it’s architect would later design), and the sight lines are great
Obviously you have a different idea of what Amazing is. Paying good money to sit in the very cramped away end I’m 6 ft tall ffs. Tiny concourse ( if you can actually call it that) obstructed views of the action. And it doesn’t help the team that plays there are your local rivals and they are shouting abuse at you for 90 minutes plus. No I wouldn’t call it Amazing! There is a reason Luton are moving to a new stadium. Hopefully it will be the best in League 1
Seriously you haven’t been to Kenilworth road . The away end is tiny the gap between the seats are tiny. If you stand up the person behind won’t be happy.
That field in Switzerland looks gorgeous!! I’m a guy who loves mountains more than anything else and loves playing soccer, so this field looks like a dream for me!
Estadio Municipal de Braga is actually an amazing piece of architecture. By carving it directly into the hill and using local materials, the architect intended for the stadium to essentially repurpose the original rock in that quarry as well as allow for poorer villagers to watch matches while sitting on the hillsides - also the reason the jumbotron was built directly into the mountain.
I get what he's saying, as he posted the picture from inside the stadium, and it does look very concrete, almost like a prison. But I think the concept is very unique and I would love to see a game there. It's one of those things that maybe the concept was great, but the actual execution was bad.
10:37 Dude, that's the greatest thing I've ever seen! Every Stadium in the world should have a train running through it! I mean, Camden Yards used to be a train station 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Minute Maid Field or whatever it is called now, got a train track that goes by the stadium...another one in Seattle's Safeco Field. The trains passing by was more exciting than any Mariners game.
Those Scottish Stadiums - When they are crap - They are Scottish If they are good - then they can be British... Latest score ... just in... East Fife 4 - Forfar - 5
9:15 Funny enough, the Milwaukee Mile Speedway in Milwaukee also used to serve as a football stadium during the early days of the NFL (nicknamed the Dairy Bowl). It even hosted a NFL Championship game between the Packers and the Giants.
Bowman Gray Stadium in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. Former home of Wake Forest football. It had a racetrack paved around it in the 50’s and NASCAR held races there in its early days. It’s nicknamed The Madhouse and still hosts races
Also just checked it on Google and it still hosts football. Including Winston-Salem State University. If that doesn’t multi-use works I don’t know what does
Well cut to 2023 and Luton Town are going to be in the Premier League and will at least be playing their 1st season at Kenilworth Road. Also that club being in the Premier League is one of the most remarkable sporting fairytales
Mmabatho Stadium actually has an interesting concept, what with all the individual upper deck sections; maybe if those individual sections were oriented so they at least faced the field, they might be onto something.
OMG I needed this. The fart jokes and the train just put me over the edge, and I laughed for a good 5 minutes. Best video out there. I look forward to watching it many times. Thanks for this. Bring on the Dad Jokes!!
But Eastern Europeans love to shop, so this is not surprising at all. And to answer your question about the San Paolo, it is so that the soccer ultras/hooligans can't invade the field. look up the Heysel and Hillsborough Disasters if you're not already familiar. Also Borussia Dortmund's "Yellow Wall" seating is something to consider
Actually, I think the soccer field on top of the mall is a shrewd idea. Doesn't look like there's an abundance of land in the general idea. I love the stadium-related videos, keep 'em coming.
My guess on why Stadium San Paolo has a trench separating the field and seats is so it would be a lot harder for people to just jump on the field and being an annoyance.
I love the fact that you've finally covered Kenilworth Road (Luton Town). Not to be a massive homer (And nobody probably cares) but Luton have been promoted twice in two seasons and they are actually selling out every home game, as they are the league below the EPL. JUST SO YOU KNOW :D
The former Cumberland Oval in Sydney, Australia had a speedway track running around the oval. One of the weirdest stadiums is the Australian rules football oval in Queenstown, Tasmania. The weird thing is not the stadium, but the oval - the surface is GRAVEL, with not a blade of grass to be seen anywhere.
THE TRAIN IS ON THE FIELD! THE TRAIN IS ON THE FIELD! Apologies to the Cal-Berzerkely football anouincer (and the Stanford band) for the plagiarism... But in this case, the steam loco is a HUGE improvement on the "sport" it interrupted...
The reason we keep asking for/love these videos is not because we give a shit about the stadiums; we come for your snide commentary, sick burns, and general irreverence when you talk about them. Keep it up!!
The malls advertising was probably like- Come for a peaceful way to shop. Yet when you go you hear load af soccer chants while just trying to buy Taco Bell or something.
Regarding Kennilworth Road, probably should have mentioned that for many years in the late 80s and early 90s when Luton Town were in the top flight of English Football (pre-Premier League) they had a plastic pitch....
I suspect that the moat is for keeping fans off the pitch. Given the history of people rushing the field with ensuing riots, it makes a bit of sense to have it since no-one can get over that gap.
Central park stadium at Cowdenbeath is actually a pretty common layout in the UK, smaller football clubs can't afford entire stadiums so they subsidize it by building a Stock Car track around the outside and allowing races to be run. Obviously they don't allow racing to be run on the same day as football games are scheduled however I have 2 examples within an hour's drive of my house: Ballymena Showgrounds and Shamrock Park in Northern Ireland. both examples of this.
Moat in soccer stadiums were once very commod around the world. I was considered a better alternative, more restrictive and less dangerous, than fences. Fútbol was once a really rowdy sport, and we the fans were seen as dsngerous hooligans
Since this channel has a stadium fetish can you do a vid on some of the most legendary stadiums/arenas? (Chicago stadium, Olympia stadium, the forum, etc...)
Some of these entries make me wonder... what makes a field into a stadium? Some of these seem like just random fields at some place, not even intended to be stadiums.
The world's greatest atrocity is going to come when the soccer team in the final stadium wins its first ever title and nobody gets to see it because as the goal goes through the steam engine train races through with that smoke and then derails onto the pitch. I sense a new Dark Knight Rises movie coming on.
There are actually several stadiums in Europe and South America with a fence and moat around the pitch (to stop pitch invasions). There are probably hundreds of stadiums in the world with "moats" including some of the biggest stadiums in the world. For example, I remember playing a U19 tournament match in Stadio Marc'Antonio Bentegodi in Verona, Italy, which seats 40k fans and hosted 4 games during the 1990 World Cup. To this day, it still has a fence and moat surrounding a running track and the pitch. If I remember correctly, the only way onto the track/pitch was via a bridge over the moat on one side or a tunnel under the moat on the other.

@@TheWideWorldofStadiums More effective than fencing with razor wire.
@@lucasamaral6571 Morumbi and Pacaembu still does

I'd think it should be best, maybe because I'm a train enthusiast
The train got me

Its better than the field i play at

Post to post has several solid videos on this. I suggest you check them out
HC Davos arena is the nicest in the world hands down
It’s a little different because in the US our stadiums are also NBA stadiums
Much wider rinks. Much more integrated stadiums into the surrounding environment. US cities are huge in comparison, and really spread out, so big buildings aren't really out of place.
You should check out post to post, they have a bunch of videos on that
The moat at Napoli's stadium was used to hold all of Diego Maradona's cocaine during the 80s.
There's a reason it's empty.
Wow, you learn something new everyday!

Who else lost it when the train rolled through
Did they watch Brewster's Millions and thought a train through a field made total sense!?
It's all fun and games until your star player gets hit by a train...in the middle of the game.
I thought “huh, it’s a little crooked but it’s not that ba- oh...”
Here comes thomas😂😂😂
No that's the best stadium
The Braga stadium isn’t that bad lol
It’s John C yeah i think he just didn’t want to look for others so he just used what he could find. It’s really cool tbh
it is the coolest stadium in the world.
I thoight the same when I saw it

A stadium which has a train passing is not that bad at all, except when there's a game, unless that the game stops when the train is coming.

are you kidding Five Points? That train automatically IMPROVES Janosovska Stadium, who doesn't like trains?

Death is the only certainty in life. Apart from a five point stadium vid of course.
Do the worst stadiums to host a bowl game
Once I went to a division II football bowl game at a high school

Bowman Gray Stadium in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. Former home of Wake Forest football. It had a racetrack paved around it in the 50’s and NASCAR held races there in its early days. It’s nicknamed The Madhouse and still hosts races
Also just checked it on Google and it still hosts football. Including Winston-Salem State University. If that doesn’t multi-use works I don’t know what does
Some American High School has a stadium called Bowman Gray Stadium that has a nascar K&N track surrounding an American Football field.
Bowman Gray stadium is owned by the city of Winston-Salem, North Carolina
