Greatest Sport venue you have been to?

Being at Trent Bridge on the day we won the 4th Test in 2005 was pretty special.

I was at the second day, when Freddie completed his hundred and we had Australia 99-5 at the close.

I really thought we were going to blow it, we only needed about 120 odd to win (off the top of my head) and proceeded to watch Warney tear us a new one until Gilo and Hoggy saw us through.

Going to stick my 2005 Ashes DVD on now :thumbup:

Only ever been to football grounds (because I don't like other sports), watching Leicester. Been to 41 different grounds (obviously been to most of them more than once), but my favourite is Anfield.

Everybody ready for a predictable post?

Did love Camp Nou, though. And am a little disappointed I missed the opportunity to go to the races in Hong Kong. Won't make that mistake again if I get to go back.

I've been lucky enough to visit some of the best stadiums in the world, have to say nothing beats the american stadiums for design and epic scale. My favourites just happen to be in texas where I used to work:-

My favourite was kyle field

And the new cowboys stadium was like something from a futuristic movie:-

They make the new wembley with all its blandness and lack of atmosphere pale into insignificance.

Outside of texas my faves would be seattles and pittsburgh:-

The college football stadiums are crazy out there!

I watched LSU v Arkansas last Friday and the attendance was something like 93k

Not really been to any significant stadiums apart from Wembley and the Emirates.

I'm an architecture student so I love looking at this kind of stuff though.

Australia v England at the MCG on boxing day 2010 was a pretty amazing experience. I've also been to see El Classico at the Bernebeu in 2007 when Real won 4-1 - unbelievable atmosphere.

This time last year I was on the way out to Australia for the ashes series and it got me wondering what's the finest sporting arena you have been to?

It's a toss up for me between the MGM Grand Garden Arena for atmosphere when Hatton fought Mayweather but I think the SCG is probably the greatest sports venue I have been present at, magnificent setting.

When I was in Australia in 2005/06 a friend who worked at the SCG got us tickets for the New Year test. We had to fly home and couldn't take them <_<

Try going to grounds such as Exeter and Peterborough then go to one like WHL, its amazing in every aspect..apart from the climb to the top tier

I'd take the Moyes End Terrace at Posh everyday over being stuck in that corner at WHL

That Texas A&N Stadium looks amazing, I've been to Wisconsins college football stadium but that looks twice as big!

But surely your home ground is pretty close to the size of WHL? You make it sound like its this incredibly massive stadium, instead of a medium sized premiership stadium.

But hey you were amazed.

I wouldn't go to wembley you'll pee your pants.
