The Game Future NRL Stadiums part II

[Perth Red]

Yeh it’s not like they can put extra steel and concrete In a stadium and engineer it for more than 90k

At a certain point the cost benefit doesn't stack up Id suggest. Hence why theres not many 90k+ stadiums in the world.

 

[titoelcolombiano]

Theres thousands of sports stadium in the world. only 18 of them are over 90k capacity. Probably for a number of reasons.

Irrelevant, Jamberoo said it was impossible and that they don't exist

The cost benefit of building a new accor when the existing capacity is already 83k isn’t going to be great unless there’s a large increase in capacity

Building an 80k or 100k wouldn’t be hugely different in costs either

You’d just make each of the four levels have extra rows of seats

Roof would be good though as Las Vegas has shown dry track adds to the quality of football

 

[Canard]

Trust me, you don’t want a roof. The roof at Marvel is extremely unpopular. A metal roof create shadows which broadcasters hate - hence why the Marvel roof is closed even on a dry 20 degree day. Watching sport in the middle of the day indoors with lights on creates a very strange atmosphere. Most don’t like it. And a clear roof create a hothouse effect, making it unbearable in summer. They will regret the door down in Hobart. Waste of $250m.

Also, there is no way Sydney would host all of Taylor Swift’s shows just because of a roof. Melbourne was her biggest crowds ever.

Its f**king shit on a nice sunny day to go sit indoors in Marvel.

It feels like you are in a shitty casino.

As for any concerts, there is only one criteria, what arrangement has Live Nation arranged with the venue.

Penn state, Alabama, Ohio state, Michigan, Tennessee, Texas, Texas A&M, LSU.

edit: I just checked and I got them all. I’m some genius.

Is there a reason why the NFL doesn't have a stadium bigger than 80K?

Just shits and giggles?

College football is the same sport and 100k+ stadiums exist. What's your point?

So why do NFL who makes billions not build stadia bigger than about 80k?

Just cause?

There's 6 or 7 College Football stadiums over 100k, what's your point?

The NFL don't need the money due to its TV rights deals which are massive money for them. Its broadcast deals, which run from 2023 to 2033 will pay in total over that period around $110 billion (and that is not a typo, yep, its billion).

By comparison, College Football TV rights are around $470 million per year and are split between morew teams than in the NFL by comparison. Hence revenue from ticket sales is more important for those clubs.

Do those stadiums have proper seats? It is hard to tell exactly but much of the seating appears to be bench seating which would push ip capacity considerably.

 

[Jamberoo]

What do you mean? There's half a dozen College Football stadiums in America over 100k

College football stadiums are generally barebones, usually uncovered, with minimal corporate, bars or dining facilities. For example the largest, Michigan, has 100k seats - single tier, shallow rake, you are miles away with ordinary viewing. If ACCOR was a college football stadiums, it would be one of the better ones.

They are very cheap, basic stadiums for amateur sport teams made up of uni students.

That is utter garbage. I’ve been in Michigan stadium and the view is awesome from everywhere.
It’s true they don’t bother with a roof or seats - but the benches are just as comfortable and each assigned spot is plenty spacious.

They are the opposite of this. They are like churches - Notre Dame stadium should be illegal it is that lush.
The programs have had $100/yr income and minimal expenses (as they haven’t paid players until recently) for decades. They spend money on coaches and facilities.

But you said they didn't exist
