PPG Paints arena isn't that old it was built in 2010. PNC Park doesn't need a thing done to it, i agree there and as for Heniz field (and yes i'm still calling it that because its new name is stupid) it does need to be updated, i agree there as well. It was built in 2001 and other than adding more seats to the south end, there really hasn't been much change overall to it, but with stadiums like that there is only so much you can do to it. The only real major improvements you can make are to the north and south ends, which you see a lot of stadiums built in that era do, like what Cleveland and New England did for example.
If the Sixers new arena gets approved and built, it would be the first time since 1970 that one of the big 4 Philly sports teams plays outside of the South Philadelphia Sports Complex.
Yeah, yawn. There are plenty of other stadiums/arenas to be included before the soccer stadium. This would included the Little League World Series fields in Williamsport.
I hate the piss troughs in Beaver Stadium and Accusure Stadium. Philly has all urinals at their sports venues. I get pee shy so i like the little extra privacy of a urinal
I think all 3 of Pittsburgh's venues are here to stay. They'll out live me for sure. Heinz is the weakest out of the bunch but even then it's still more than passable. PPG is really nice for what is, there's not much that can be done with NHL/NBA arenas to make them unique, but the Penguins have done well. Suit 66 and the new clubs by the locker rooms are cool. PNC though is an absolute gem and should never be touched. Lived here all my life and I just went to a Pirate game and its beauty still stunned me walking in. Honorable mention to Highmark Stadium, home of the Pittsburgh Riverhounds, there's not much to it but its on the south side (PNC and Heinz are on the north for reference) and it uses the city as a back drop well. I hope the Maulers play there and they expand its seating so it turns into more of a proper stadium instead of a field
Selling out the Eagles’ home stadium isn’t counted in years but generations. There literally hasn’t been a game under full capacity since the 80s Fly Eagles Fly 🦅
Pirates should put a pirate ship feature in center field and fire the fake cannons for every homerun just like the Tampa Bay Bucs. Temple should get a 30k seat stadium on campus. You didn't mention Villanova basketball arena and seriously a roof on Lincoln Financial Field? Football is played outdoors.
In terms of Temple Football, while a 30k seat stadium is great, given that Temple home games must be scheduled around Philadelphia Eagles away games (although it is possible for Lincoln Financial Field grounds crews to convert the Linc from Temple Football to Eagles Football, much like when the LA Rams shared the LA Memorial Colosseum with USC before SoFi Stadium was completed), the problem would be is the location: Temple University proper is located in North Philadelphia near where the A's and Phillies use to play their home games (Shibe Park/Connie Mack Stadium); North Philly, unlike the South Philadelphia Sports Complex, is not quite a decent neighborhood to place a 30k NCAA Division I-A at. The Linc, at least in terms of capacity, is very large, and if Temple wants to go with something of a smaller capacity, they should look at Subaru Park in nearby Chester, PA, where the MLS Philadelphia Union plays their home matches. My opinion, Temple Football needs to stay in South Philly and Temple should look into booking non-conference games with teams that would draw in crowds (such as Penn State, Notre Dame, Brigham Young, Colorado, etc.).
The one thing I dislike about Citizen's Bank Park is the brick behind home plate is so dirty. It never looks clean. The mortar in between the bricks looks terrible. I don't know why they don't clean it up. They just cover up most of it with ad spaces.
If you look at it in 2004 when the stadium opened it looked the same. I don’t think it’s dirty I just think the mortar was never white for some reason. Which is weird because I questioned it myself before and had to look it up.
Once again in another one of your videos you show your clear lack of knowledge of stadiums. For the second time you say Shribe Park. It was Shibe Park or Connie Mack Stadium.
@@JosephReese-qb4kdWhen he said that Cleveland brown stadium is better. It's obviously telling you that hes a brown fan. Browns fans hate the steelers and the steelers hate the Browns. It's just a nice rivalry
Nah as someone who lives in pgh its way overrated and underhated. Its a tin can with a mountain of an upper deck, bleachers in the endzone upper deck, open to the river gusts and lets everyone get blasted by November/december winds, abhorrent playing surface, etc. Barely any character outside of the hall of fame. Even the bright yellow seats let you see how many people dont leave the tailgate. Always been baffled at the praise it gets personally. PNC & Consol/PPG are the shit though. Very impressive venues, no bad seats in PPG
I visited Philadelphia for a church event back in early January. I don't like the Philadelphia sports complex in South Philly because it's miles of parking lot space. I'm glad the Sixers are building their new arena in Downtown Philadelphia.
There is nothing better than being right off the highway and not having to fight to find a parking space. Go to Pittsburgh and other downtown venues and try and find parking sometime. In Philly people care about the action on the field not the views behind it.
6:44, “They’re not going to have to renovate this AT ALL… at least I don’t think they will.” Well, which is it? Are you sure they won’t at all? Or do you just think they won’t? 👎🏽
76ers Place at Market East is a GREAT place to have an arena! SEPTA's Regional Rail Line and the Market-Frankford Lines are right there for transportation if car traffic is a concern. This would be a win-win for Chinatown's struggling restaurant scene and would give Center City a much needed boost economy wise! The Temple Owls DESPERATELY need a stadium of it's own!!! Franklin Field and The Palestra are local iconic gems!
PATCO from NJ drops off at 8th and Market and has a walkway to site. There are several garages nearby. They've been trying to develop that area for decades
South Philadelphia sports complex is already a great location. They just need to add more bars/restaurants around there .I-95 and I-76 right there. Broad street subway line as well. No need to move it away from the rest of the stadiums.
I just want each seat in stadiums and arenas to have its own set of armrests. Idon't like sharing an armrest with some stranger. Didn't Covid teach us anything?

You know that Subarus Stadium is in Chester, Pennsylvania, The Philadelphia metro area, Home of the Philadelphia Union FC
Lol this is America no one cares about soccer

Should do a video on Maryland stadiums and arenas.
2:21 the USFL Philadelphia Stars can play at Lincoln Financial Field with the Philadelphia Eagles
100% true!!! No more "neutral" site! Play in our own city!!!
Suburu Park would work so much better.....

PNC Park has been renovated. they replaced all the seats a few years ago and made a new larger scoreboard
What about The Liacouras Center and Franklin Field?
76 marketplace is not guaranteed it has not been approved to be built
Have you done Veterans stadium and the theory it caused sickness. People think the turf, built on a dump, radar gun
9:46 new WNBA team known as “Philadelphia Bells”
You forgot to include the Bryce Jordan Center. Penn States basketball arena
Your feedback on the Steelers field was beyond poorly informed.
That’s every video , it’s a surface level look into it. Every time.
This dude is a basher at best
I'm not trying to start an argument or anything but I am curious why you say that. What do I not understand why you think it was poorly informed.

Was thinking you’d talk about the Palestra in Philly where they play Big 5 basketball.
You should’ve done the liacouras center
He also forgot Subaru Park for the MLS' Philadelphia Union.
3:57 the USFL Pittsburgh Maulers needed Acrisure Stadium alongside Pittsburgh Steelers
The Maulers should play at Highmark Stadium where the Riverhounds play
@@Zac15 I mean some Stadiums need to make more money

It’s right next to the subway & other transportation!

Heinz field is very nice…..if you’ve never been you can’t comment
The thumbnail click bait with Veterans stadium being demolished 20+ years ago is crazy 💀
Depressed Ginger hating on PNC Park but raves about Coors Field 🤣
I've never been a fan of Heinz Field. It's just ok. Nothing spectacular. PPG, I like it. I like the glass on the outside. PNC, don't change a thing!
Pittsburgh can have some both new expansion teams of NBA & MLS!🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽

No. Sixers need to worry more about building a winner than building a new stadium
Don't forget NHL Flyers too, upon future sharing with NBA 76ers new arena in Chinatown Philly.
1000% TRUE,@@lovesgucci1 because if this Harden thing goes south and Embiid leaves....SELL the DAMN TEAM!!! No new arena~~!!!

Both are top notch.. But PNC Park is just something special.
