We showcase 10 of the world's most unique stadiums. Including a stadium that is floating apparently. Thanks for watching! Music: Main: • Bad Snacks - New Moon Outro: • White Hex - Searching ...
Ford Field is built into the side of a preexisting warehouse, so most of the suites are stacked on one side. This means none of the regular seats are nosebleeds. University of Michigan's football stadium is well known but the hockey team plays in a more unique venue. Yost Ice Arena was originally built as a fieldhouse and kinda looks like a barn, inside the seats do not curve around at the corners like most hockey rinks. And it has a very active and loud student section.
Marina Bay is also used for the Formula 1 race. Part of the track goes around the grandstands between the floating football field and the seating. You can see the red and white corner markers in the video.
Fun fact about Estadio Ciudad de La Plata: none of the teams supposed to share it actually play there. They each have their own stadium (Estudiantes completely rebuilt it in 2019) and choose to play there.
One that's waaaaaaay (and I mean way) under the radar but bizarre is Solomon Islands national stadium. Barely any real seating and one whole side of it is this steep hillside lawn where people chill out and watch the match.
The Float's pitch is floating pontoon on the river. And the backdrop of the pitch is the Singapore business district skyline and Marina Bay Sands. Check it out on Google Earth 3D view.
Check out Lynn Family Stadium in Louisville, Kentucky. Same designers as Avaya/Earthquakes Stadium, but the roof is patterned to look like a bourbon barrel. The lighting structures on the roof are also distinct.
Imagine when ever the Chargers or NFL expansion decides to come to San Diego, they should totally build the stadium like in the thumbnail on the harbor now that would be cool.
I can think of another 'Siamese Stadium'. TD Place Stadium and Arena in Ottawa, Canada. Originally the arena was known as the Ottawa Civic Centre and the stadium was Lansdowne Park until corporate sponsors took over. The arena has an unusual seating configuration because of the north stand of the football stadium. The south stands of the football stadium had to be rebuilt because the previous stand was declared condemned after a FIFA U20 tournament in 2007.
What is about NK Imotski stadium, HNK Trogir stadium, NK Rijeka stadium, HNK Hajduk stadium (built in 1979., first, oldest and original one of this type stadium)?
Love the videos! However, the stadium in San Jose is home to a team called the “San Jose Earthquakes”. The logo you put was of a defunct team “Club Deportivo Guadalajara” of Liga MX. The name of this stadium is Avaya Stadium.
@Greg Bray i was there last saturday for the johan cruijf schaal in the away end and was reminded why it's so terrible. roof closed makes this a sauna and it's so boring in everything. no atmosphere either.
Uhmmm . . . your usually droll comments in ither videos fall flat on this one. Also, your diminishing the Stockhol, Olympic Stadium just as a sub of Melbourne 1956 is a cheap shot and VERY INCORRECT. It was an Olympic Stadum on its own in 1912 -- the Games where Jim Thorpe became famous. And when it staged the Equestrian events of 1956, they were in June 10-17, a few months before the main body of the competition was held in Melbourne in October. Thus, how could something be called an "adjunct" to another set of games half a world away when it happened WITHOUT incident some 4 months before the other part of the 1956 Summer Games (and by which time it wasn't summer in Melbourne anyway when they staged the Games. It was their winter down there.) So you might stop sacrificing FACT for some cutesy comments. Not becoming at all.
