Miami stadium renderings released

The Beckham group is also in “active discussions” with the University of Miami about sharing the stadium with the Hurricanes football team, which now plays at the Miami Dolphins’ Sun Life Stadium under a long-term lease. That would require the soccer stadium, now designed for about 20,000 to 25,000 spectators, to grow to about 40,000 seats, complicating the parking picture and scheduling, he said.

The group expects to decide within 60 days whether the UM idea is feasible, Alschuler said.

I posted this over at the MSB but I expect that to be wrecked by trolling

That looks absolutely brilliant. If people don't go to games at a place like that then there is no hope in Miami.

I really hope this vision comes to fruition. I know there will be a fight. Fortunately, this plan has Beckham and his powerful partners/friends behind it.

Only one thing:

GTFO

Structurally European stadiums are built with the fans literally right next to pitch with the first row being eye level. I guess if the U of Miami will be playing there, then they will have to block off the first 5-7 rows to allow people to see over all the players standing on the sideline.

That is unless they build the seating up like a traditional NFL stadium, which would negate the Euro aspect. IMO its stupid to accommodate the UM football team but if thats what takes to get the stadium built
