Good call... not sure how I missed that badly on that one. Edited the video to correct that (...and by edited I mean there's no #9 on the list anymore haha)
Add Buddh International Circuit. Since it's opening in 2011, it hosted 2xFormula One and 1xMotorcycle Grand Prix. It's stand out features include: 110,000 empty seats in the grandstands with a total of few girls present to take selfies during this three events.
Not if the stadiums are built for a temporary event like the Olympics or a World Cup. Then those stadiums go to rot for the most part. See: 2016 Rio Olympics
To your last point: It used to be that everybody wanted to host the Olympics. Now, with past Olympic venues struggling to find use for the (sometimes) Billions spent on stadiums, etc. after the games are over (two good examples are when Greece and Brazil hosted the Olympics), those stadiums don't get used much, if at all. So now, it's only the wealthiest major cities bidding for having the Olympics. Prediction: Summer Olympics in the UAE or similar oil-rich kingdom sometime in the future....🥵😬
I doubt that Australia will end up being able to afford the Summer Games in 2032. So it may end up being up to LA to reuse it's 2028 facilities again, or there simply won't be a 2032 games. And after that, you are probably right. The Summer Games will be renamed the Middle-Eastern Games. And how anyone will be able to afford the Winter Games by then? (What with having to artificially create that much snow).
If you were going to do any Atlanta stadium, it should've been the former Omni Coliseum. Built in 1972, one of its features was a weathering steel facade; however, this proved to be a terrible decision, as the weathering steel had rusted more than intended, leading to its demolition in 1997 and replacement by State Farm Arena on its footprint.
Montreal was way overpriced. However, the Expos played there for two plus decades. The roof has been a failure yes, and It is a white elephant. However, compared to a few on here It is a roaring success
Turner Field is still standing, it’s been repurposed as a football stadium by Georgia State. The site you showed was Atlanta Fulton County Stadium.

Your narration has really improved recently 👍
I protest the number 4 entry. I thought the Georgia Dome was a successful venue despite its short life.

To them, "Formula One" is some kind of Skin Cream....🙄🤣
The next video you should do is one on the Richmond coliseum
It is really reaching to call the Georgia Dome a failure. 25 years is a long time for these structures.
In the base of the Montreal Stadium tower is a former velodrome/curling rink. It was measured in metric and built in feet and inches.
The waste is mind boggling. Its good sports generate do much money. Some on these were beautiful. Especially the one in Ukraine.

Went to the Donbass arena twice in 2012.

Stomach churning nausea adding all those big big numbers up…ugh.
5:59 thanks Russia
I’m perplexed, you went from #10, to #8, you skipped over #9, why? Just curious
Read the pinned comment. This explains why
The Georgia Dome was a failure? No. Incorrect. I actually attended the final event there.
Did this video go from 10 (Lithuania) to 8 (Broomfield)? Where's 9?
Montreal was way overpriced. However, the Expos played there for two plus decades. The roof has been a failure yes, and It is a white elephant. However, compared to a few on here It is a roaring success
why does the video say "Turner Field" at #9 but go straight from #10 to
8 , totally missing Turner Field? Theres no Victoria Stadium either.
I wouldn’t call the Georgia dome a failure
I think these stadiums are totally out of hand. Thats from high-school stadium on up
