Why isn't Tiger Stadium hosting a friendly? Could have had 90k Argentinians spending the night in Baton Rouge.

Edit: FIFA requires a minimum of 70 yards width and it appears to have that with room to spare.

Check the other thread.

Field is too narrow, doesn't fit FIFA regulations.

Hosting a friendly. That's the gayest shite ever.

I actually just proved that it does fit FIFA regulations. See the image in the OP.

Because soccer is gay. We don’t need gay shite in TS.

Awesome that you used google maps measuring tool.

Meanwhile, FIFA said Tiger Stadium was too narrow back in 2018 when it was one of the first stadiums cut as a potential World Cup hosting site.

210 ft wide (70 yards) is just for the playing field itself. That doesn't include space needed for players to take corners, for players to warm up and where to put the benches.

217 ft wide (72 yards) doesn't accommodate that.

The whole “soccer is gay” response is pretty ghey. Meanwhile, the player on the cover of the latest Madden game paints his nails.

Bro we are talking about a friendly, not a world cup match. They have held literal world cup qualifier matches in El Salvador at the Estadio Cuscatlan. Tell me how this field meets the requirements.

That stadium is also curved around midfield. The field is almost as wide as Jordan hare at its widest point.

Which is like 80 ft wider than tiger stadium field at its widest point.

I'm not sure what you don't understand, the field is too small to fit a field.

The quality of the grass has nothing to do with it, although Argentina would laugh you into oblivion if you gave them a shite field to play on right before the World Cup.
