    England and Australia tarp off the bottom rows of seats for NFL because the bottom rows are at pitch level so the crowd wouldn't be able to see the game over the top of the people stood beside the field.

    4:38 Sections get tarped off because most other stadiums in countries like the UK and Aus have seating extend all the way to ground level, and makes it easier instead of having to remove seating which would be useless due to obstructing views

    I believe they tarp off the first rows in the European games because the rows are too low and you cant see anything with the players and camera setup. Qualcomm had that issue with their lower field seats.

    The reason Fenway hosted Liverpool FC pre season is because Liverpool FC is own by the Fenway Group. So wherelse is better to hostthis game?
    Osaka Stadium has houses inside is not because they provide homes to the buyers. After the former tenant moved, a property developer rented the place to build mock houses as samples for buyers to check their products.

    They tarp off the seats on the sidelines when they play at Wembley (and a few other places) because stadiums purpose built for soccer don’t always have a wall on along the sidelines, the seat’s just come down to field level because in soccer there’s fewer people standing on the the sidelines to get in the way of the people in the first few rows

    • @pdawg193

      Also the reason the seats were empty at Tiger Stadium was because the Saints were awful that year, going 3-13. However they would get the 2nd overall pick, selecting Reggie Bush, and reaching the NFC Championship Game the following season.

It's gotten plenty of use by a number of sports and other things

    Tarping the lowest seats for football game. The first few rows are in line visually with the height of normal people. So if you sat in those seats your view would be obstructed by all the players and coaches and equipment. Unlike in baseball where there may be a point where a ballboy blocks you for a split second, with football hundreds of people will constantly block your view.

    If houses can be added to this list then the former Highbury Stadium in London should get a mention. The outside of the stadium was designated as a landmark so Arsenal FC couldn’t demolish it when they moved. They turned the grandstands into apartments and the field into a courtyard.

  • @paulblackman8159
    @paulblackman8159 Год назад

    I think the MCG is bigger. And the front row tarp is because those seats are angled too low. While American football has spectator fences off the ground to see over all the staff standing on the sidelines, most Australian grounds have the front row at ground level.

    Back when it was still around the Kingdome was the place where most of the big auto, boat, RV, etc. shows took place in Seattle. There was a weird tent thing outside the stadium that got used as extra exhibition space for those shows because not everything would fit on the field or in the 100 level concourse a lot of the time. Because of these uses and the general lack of any other suitable venues for them in Seattle there’s now a big expo center connected directly to Lumen Field that now hosts these events. If one of the events in the expo center needs more space, it will typically spill out into the concourse of the actual stadium, so you will see all the concession stands and the Seahawks team store surrounded by a bunch of cars or boats. As far as I know none of them use the actual field of the stadium even though they happen mostly during the NFL and MLS offseason.
