In terms of football, any of the following:

AMEX Stadium
Old Trafford
Wembley
Villa Park
Santiago Bernabeu Stadium

 

[Gregory2Smith1]

I stood on the Kop once,before the seats went in and I must say,the scouser's didn't disappoint,a real cracking atmosphere

Old Trafford was impressive,but lacking in atmosphere,maybe because they were only playing us

The old Hampden Park was awesome too

i like Old Trafford, obv it's massive, but it doesn't feel like it. Iconic stadium....

Also a shout out for non league grounds, York St, Boston is right up there, but nothing really compares with the fortress that is Christchurch Meadows....

Agree that it should have been built in The West Midlands, middle of the country and all that, but the Old Wembley to me was what football was all about, the walk up Wembley Way to the Twin Towers never failed to put the hairs on the back of my neck stand up.

It's the way it made me feel rather than the infrastructure.

Yes, used to like teams coming out from behind the goal I think it built the atmosphere up, pity that.

 

[Ulloa's Soul Patch]

1. Stade Louis II - Monaco's ground
2. Emirates
3. The AMEX

 

[Raleigh Chopper]

I know its a bit of a dump, and usually filled with idiots, but when full, Hillsborough is my favourite ground.

 

[ofco8]

Camden Yards. Baltimore. Home to the Orioles. Right in city centre. Great atmosphere when full.

 

[TheMajor]

Poljud Stadium Hadjuk Split ,Red Star Stadium Belgrade , Igraliste Batarija HNK Trogir .

 

[Mowgli37]

I think many of you are forgetting the mighty Goring's Mead

 

[Citrus]

Lots of love for Rogers Centre - plenty of better ballparks out there, IMO, although it can be great when it's very occasionally full. Wrigley Field and Fenway for starters, Comerica's great too.

 

[Not Andy Naylor]

Wrigley Field, Chicago. Until the whole Falmer area becomes known as Amexville we won't be competing. But we'll need a load of bars and shops. The village pond doesn't quite cut it.
But I'll put us second.
Heinz Field. Pittsburgh. NFL stadiums can often be soulless but Steelers' fans make this an exception.
Dodger Stadium, LA. Beautiful setting.
Goodison. No idea why, just an old-fashioned ground I love visiting. Surrounded by terraced housing, the church in the corner.

 

[Lord Bracknell]

Siena. An athletics track surrounded by trees. Just like Withdean, but in the city centre and handy for a whole variety of medieval architectural delights

 

[Lord Bracknell]

And, while I'm in an Italian frame of mind, the municipal stadium in Montalcino. This must be the only football ground in the world with a fourteenth century castle running alongside the full length of one of the touchlines.

 

[Barham's tash]

Many different categories you could adopt to this:

Atmosphere - Anfield (based on the 2-2 cup game and probably sentimentality too, it was my first 30k plus gate featuring the Albion)

Setting: The Amex

Scale: Skydome, this place gets real frigging clouds in the roof when it's shut and enough people are in it, oh and then let fireworks off in the roof when a home run is scored.

Tradition/History: Goodison park, virtually unchanged since 1966 or the Old Wembley

 

[Vicar!]

I used to enjoy Elm Park (Reading) when they used to know their place in the order of things, and if in doubt we had no problem reminding them. Happy memories of Eastville and The Shay.
