Football stadium roster through 2014
It's kind of funny, but with two new stadiums visited this season, this list looks sufficiently different from last year's list that I think it worth sharing again. :)
An italic team name means I've seen the team play at their newer stadium too (four times), while the dagger means I haven't seen a game at that team's new gridiron (three times); the asterisk on the stadium name simply means I was there more than once (which I try to avoid other than for the Giants at MetLife).
After my back-to-back weeks of seeing games to close out November, I now have seen all but 5 teams play at home, and have a total of 8 stadiums to see. That feels much more doable than it did a few years ago. On the to-do list are one team on the west coast (the Niners, who I may try to see on a west coast ski trip at some point), the two Texas teams (who I would like to knock out of the way in one longhorn, I mean, long-ass weekend should I find a working Sunday-Monday night alignment), Detroit (who I'd likewise like to see in another long weekend with one of the three Midwest teams whose new stadium I haven't seen), and Tampa Bay (who will be hosting the Giants in 2015...).
One or two new stadiums each year is the goal. It should only be a few more years...

Well, well, well. The football stadium list and I meet again. This time I am sure to note BUF42-CLE0. Woo hoo. I'll look past 2009 and 2011... GO BILLS!
ReplyDeleteI think I did post it here a few times. Then it goes on IG or IG stories once a year. I guess you won't actually remember that 42-0 beat down, tho...they were good...
Deletethey "were" good... ouch.
