@DlNGOOOOOO@NdcR53@LouSirr101 Except the atmosphere is great there…we also have stadiums designed to have people closer to the field/pitch but typically with American football you need a bit more room for sidelines.
@lolbob27@TouchlineX As someone already said, typically the older stadiums have this design, the newer ones usually can close completely.
As for why this stadium was chosen, it’s not a great one nor in a great city, but the area has some of the best football/soccer culture in the country.
The attendance at the USMNT match yesterday was 2.45 times larger than the attendance for the England match. These English chat a lot of shit for a country that has never beaten the United States at the World Cup, men’s or women’s, in 5 matches.
@harryxafc@_teambennett9@Angry_UNT_Fan While I can understand a shooting being jarring, it really has no impact on the WC. Also 12 years ago Brazil, the most dangerous country in the world in terms of violent crime hosted.
so let me get this straight:
-soccer counts as brazilian/argentine culture, basketball counts as serbian/lithuanian culture, hockey counts as canadian/swedish/finnish culture, rugby counts as NZ/UK culture, but baseball and american football and college sports/march madness cannot POSSIBLY count as american culture?
-afternoon tea is british culture, masala chai is indian culture, espresso is italian culture, turkish tea/coffee is turkish culture, but iced coffee (and sweet tea down south) doesn’t count as american culture?
-telenovelas are part of latino cultures, bollywood is part of indian culture, but hollywood cannot count as american culture?
-kpop is korean culture, jpop is japanese culture, but boy bands (which literally originated in the US) don’t count as american culture?
-wine is part of italian/french culture, beer is part of czech culture, vodka is part of russian/polish culture, but cocktails and soeakeasies aren’t american culture?
-kilts are scottish culture, saris are indian culture, but blue jeans and cowboy boots don’t count as being american culture?
-italy can be respected for having varying regional cuisines throughout the country EVEN IF 85% of it is just different variations of PASTA but the fact that louisiana cajun and creole food is entirely distinct from NE lobster rolls and tex-mex and jersey italian american cuisine and southern biscuits and gravy etc still doesn’t count as america having regional cuisine ?
-maori history counts for NZ, aboriginal history counts for australia, but native american history doesn’t count for the US?
-quinceañeras are latin american culture but sweet 16s aren’t american culture?
i could go on for ages but this is already too long for twitter. i’m tired of this conversation! EVERYWHERE HAS CULTURE! even if you don’t like it!
@utfbts3@_IGOmaha@England Not you-it’s the people making judgments on the stadium doing something like that. Especially since it’s not even a WC stadium and the English FA chose it…
@FreddyLA7 Any reason you came so early? The city should be better during the tournament and the stadium is class but tbh Atlanta doesn’t really offer as much as cities like Miami, New York, or Los Angeles. Hope you enjoy though.
@M28Motorsport@BigWillWTVC@SEFutbol I think it’s a great location your manager(s) have chosen. A more quiet, private, and scenic area which still has class facilities. From what I have seen the entire city has worked hard to make it the best host for Spain. 🇪🇸
This is insane homicidal racial tribalism and it’s not the exception to the rule or some kind of aberration. It’s why black jurors are overwhelmingly more likely to acquit black defendants.
@HunterBiden@OverhaulUSA "E pluribus unum" refers to the unification of thirteen colonies into one, not an infinite flood of brown subhuman rapists brought in for the purpose of stripping White people of sovereignty and arbitraging labor until thermodynamic equilibrium is achieved with the third world.
