It's not even eleven years old, and more famous, kind-of-famous, think-they're-famous, and never-going-to-be-famous-even-though-their-publicist-tells-them-they're-famous people have been to the Staples Center than just about any other arena in the world. Simply put, it's the place to be during basketball season, and it doesn't hurt that the Lakers have all those titles and all that talent. Just saying though, the only lake we've ever found in L.A. was in Echo Park and had a body in it.

Yes, we want the nickname. Most HR's ever? 7 MVP's. Oh yeah, before you talk shit, that's not AT & T Park, that's Petco numbnuts.

Thank you for recognizing the Westfalenstadion. Btw everyone calls it like that forget the name. It was a necessity to sell the naming rights when the club went almost bankrupt in 2005. I am a Dortmund fan. Unser ganzes Leben Unser ganzer Stolz - Nur der BVB!

That would be the nou camp you've posted a picture of on old Trafford.

It's a Habs game.

What the hell is a Havs game? I know V and B are near each other on the keyboard but seriously!
seriously? September 24th, 2010 at 07:00 AM
MSG at number 20 and Yankee Stadium at 35? This is a joke. Fenway park is a terrible stadium. It's old and gross and needs serious remodeling.

Uh...have you missed Fenway's ten-year renovation project that's just ending now?
