Clemson’s football stadium is built into a hill which is in fact a cemetery dating back to the plantation that was there before the university. You can see gravestones from the gates.

Sitka High baseball stadium is kinda cool. Right on the outer ocean, huge rollers coming in. Great view of Edgecumbe Volcano too.


Barrow HS football stadium. Its right on the Sea. They have polar bear patrols.

Sir Vivian Richards Cricket Grounds in Antigua.

You are driving thru the quiet area where the locals living heading to the costal vacation spots and this massive stadium just comes out of no where. Pretty impoverished island, other than the vacation communities and feels real out of place.

This video was made in May, I wonder how those two stadiums in LaPalma have faired since the volcano erupted a week or so ago?

The Meadowlands. It's in a marsh.

Knox City Texas. 7 man HS football. No bleachers. People drove right up to the sidelines and parked to watch the game.


Where is the stadium in this description?

BFE East Rutherford, New Jersey

Wrigley Field is in a neighborhood. Fenway is in a weird place too. Neither has any relative parking nearby.

Marquette used to play basketball in what looked like a basement

Cameron Indoor-you could walk by the stadium and really have no idea it is a stadium if it weren’t for signs.

Bunkie High School's football field is essentially in the middle of a corn field.

This can be said for Camp Randall Stadium at the U of Wisconsin.

I thought the Rose Bowl was in an odd location. It was right in the middle of a very nice neighborhood.

Remember the old 80,000+ seat Tulane / Sugar Bowl stadium backed up to homes on Audubon Blvd, arguably one of the nicest, most exclusive residential streets in NOLA. No way it could ever be built there now.

Lambeau field in the middle of a residential neighborhood

Also that high-school in Alaska that literally sits on the Bering sea

You'd think Rupp Arena was an early 80s shopping mall, but for the signage.
