@philly_colector @jordiebarstool This is the real reason. And the sidelines are too big, aesthetically speaking. I understand they need to be bigger for football though

@nufcpb We have stadiums with soul, FIFA just didnt want to use them. This one is in my hometown and is 112 years old, and holds 62,000

@afc_thms Your post says “American Stadiums have no soul”, and I replied with a photo of a historic American stadium.

If you meant to say “the stadiums FIFA selected for the World Cup have no soul” then thats a completely different point.

Figure it the fuck out bozo

@vicleal19 @kaitorero Yale bowl geometry is the best stadium geometry

@gabpaiz3 @KingPoopigan I agree it’s cool, it makes the magnitude of the stadium feel “unassuming” when you approach it on foot

@afc_thms It came very close to being one in 1994

@butleriano We have stadiums with charm and character, but fifa didnt want to use them.

@_VICER0Y_ @KingPoopigan It honestly is, but it was built before most of the houses were. It is like 1-2 miles walk from downtown
Capacity used to be ~75,000 but now it is ~63,000 because of safety regs

Highest recorded attendance was ~80,000

@lisaarh_ey I think the euro nerds would’ve liked Yale bowl

@DivineTrading We have historic stadiums with charm that are not so isolated, but fifa didn’t want to use them.
This is in my town, It’s 112 years old and holds ~62,000 (used to hold ~75,000 before safety refs). You can walk there from downtown
