You can't have a list like this without Soldier Field. I didn't know it was one of the smallest venues in all of sports. In fact, Chicago's home to 3 of them (United Center, Wrigley Field [no surprise there], and Soldier Field). That explains why we'll never host or win another Super Bowl.

I'm kind of surprised that the Houston Astrodome is not on this list. It had one of the worst playing surfaces in the NFL, and was one of, if not the first, multi-purpose stadiums. On the other other, I'm not sure which stadium would need to be removed from the 10 picked to make room for the Astrodome. They all had issues.

Veterans Stadium. So many careers ended there. God awful playing surface. You could get your feet caught in one of the cutouts in the old baseball diamond when the Eagles were playing. Restrooms were the absolute pits. The sinks doubled as a urinal.

I have to disagree about the Silverdome being on the list. If you wanted to include a stadium the Lions played in it should have been Tiger Stadium. As far as I know, it was never designed to be a football stadium. It just worked out that you could fit a football field in there. Tiger Stadium had a ridiculously wide sideline on one side of the field and had many obstructed views due to the upper deck being directly above the lower deck. With the Silverdome, you had a perfect rectangular event space to fit a football field and few, if any, obstructed view seats. Compared to modern stadiums the Silverdome was plain, and it's astroturf was outdated by the end of its life, but that doesn't make it one of the worst ever.

Yes, emotion comes into this but, as a member of a rabid Browns family (until '95), I would still rather freeze my as* off. among REAL WORKING-CLASS FANS, in old Cleveland Stadium (nobody I know ever called it "Municipal") than sit in pampered comfort in a place like SoFi. That was football, at prices working stiffs could afford. 80,000 screaming Clevelanders made that old place a cathedral to me.

There's a HUGE misconception about the stadiums with baseball diamonds.The diamonds were NOT there the ENTIRE football season in ANY stadium, and I know, because I remember every last one of these stadiums. Every last grass baseball infield was completely sodded over soon as baseball ended, which was usually the end of September, unless the MLB team made the playoffs. Not ONE football team played on a grass baseball infield in October-December. STOP it.

Grew up in the Bay Area as a 49ers and SF Giants fan, so Candlestick Park was a big part of my childhood. It's unusual shape inherited from its original design as a baseball stadium resulted in obstructed views for lower level seating and an overall awkward layout for football games. Also, the stadium's location on a windy coastal area often made playing conditions difficult. It would get really cold there during games.

I was there for a July game in 1966. I got to see Willie McCovey hit a home run. Willie Mays also played that day. You're right about it being cold. We wore parkas to a day game.

Silverdome was a masterpiece in it's time, it detreated after it's closure, but was not worst all time. How about Sun Devil Stadium? 100 degree heat and metal bleachers. woefully inadequate amenities by NFL standards and Cardinals were stuck there for 18 seasons.

Schaefer Stadium was built for $7 million. It had four bathrooms for 60,000. It was a dump the day it opened. Parking lots were dirt. Kraft bought the stadium, and when the owner wanted to move the team to St Louis, he refused to let the team out of the lease. So they sold the team to Kraft.

How about the original Maple Leafs Gardens? A nondescript but towering outdoor facade, an enormous barn-box inside. Sound bounced around the cavernous interior, amplifying back on itself to create a deafening din. Among others of similar vintage, like Olympia in Detroit, Chicago Stadium and the original Boston Gardens, MLG stood out for its sheer sonic loudness.

When I was 13, my dad took me to a game at Schaefer Stadium. It looked like a giant version of a high school stadium with two aluminum stands next to each other. And yes, it took an hour at least to get out, which made steam come out of my dad's ears. That footage of the Metrodome collapsing was unreal. But I guess they repaired it? After it got demolished and their new one wasn't ready, the games at TCF meant it was like old times at Metropolitan Stadium in late November or early December. They had one of those below zero playoff games there, too.

I think the locals refer to Canisius College as "Can-ee-shus". I don't think Silverdome or Metrodome should be on here. Pretty cool stadiums in the 80s and 90s especially compared to some of the others of that time period (Vet, 3 Rivers, Browns, Busch etc). Yes they became dated but at their peak they were good I think and lastly the Murph was awesome. They hosted Superbowls there.

The Rose Bowl is outdated. I know it's historic and all but it still outdated. On the rare occasions when it rains, there is simply no where to go, also too much space between the stands and the field
