      It's technically not old since it was totally demolished on the inside and rebuilt in the 2000s. They torn down so much of the original stadium that it lost its landmark status.

    Nothing is set in stone yet, they still could build on the property they purchased in Arlington Heights, it would be THE BEARS property, and it will solve all the problems that currently exist using Soldier Field, Parking, Parking $$, the neighborhood, etc...

      Even if it means the Bears would have to find a temp. home for an season (and the Chicago Fire MLS team too), Bears played in the U.I. stadium for the 2002 season, could see the bears play there or new Ryan Field assuming its open by the time the S.F. renovation takes place

  • @CS_1989

    The Bears playing indoors is beyond DISRESPECTFUL, this is about trying to turn soldier field into @arena. It’s SOLDIER FIELD not Broadway. We have plenty of venues in the city for that. Being thirsty to host a Super Bowl & change and the character of the team is UNACCEPTABLE. They could host the SB in FEB & if it’s -20 football fans gone b there regardless, stop trying to make football pretty and soft.

    • @miker6570

      I will also add this fact. In the past 20 or so years I believe the NFL has only hosted one super bowl in a cold weather city in a open air stadium. That was at MetLife stadium in New York. And the league has never gone back to that idea. Basically to host a super bowl today. It must be in a warm weather city or it must be in a dome.

    • @kegtappereiu
      @kegtappereiu 4 месяца назад

      Most people that go to the super bowl are not fans. They just go because it's the cool thing to do. If they host it in cold weather they will lose all those folks and won't be able to sell tickets at an exuberant price.

  • @jlv3x
    @jlv3x 4 месяца назад +1

    At some point structures can no longer be rehabbed and need to be rebuilt. That design is not inline with any of the new buildings going up around it in the South Loop. If no one supported that design 20 years ago it's not going to win over anybody today.

  • @abelincoln6785
    @abelincoln6785 4 месяца назад +1

    Bears want a new stadium fine, pay for it on your own. If forced to do so they will abandon the new design and its price tag in favor or either Arlington Heights, revisit ideas like this one, or move to Gary. There is no money in the fiscal hell hole that both Chicago and Illinois are in. Time for the parents (the taxpayers) to say no to the spoiled children (the Bears owners) you can't always get what you want. Get your own damn financing.

    @thomasfrench2012 4 месяца назад +2

    Five Super Bowl appearances with four wins, have owned the Bears the last 30 years, all while being in a much smaller market and using the league's most archaic stadium. Anyone who thinks the new stadium has anything to do with winning instead of making the owners even more filthy rich than they already are is just blind. Most of the people who want a better experience do not seem to realize that they will never be able to afford to go there. Tickets will be so expensive that most seating will be bought by companies who can write it off on their taxes, not by the average Bears fan.

    • @jlv3x
      @jlv3x 4 месяца назад

      The stadium will be owned by the city of Chicago, not by the Bears. Green Bay has had massive updates to their stadium over the past 20 years. I have not heard one person suggest that a new stadium would win any football games. A new stadium would bring more money to the city with a guaranteed Super Bowl and other indoor sporting events. The people who what better amenities can most likely afford them, especially people that travel to away games in nicer arenas where they pay more for the tickets there already.

    So what is like so is it because the bears don't own their own stadium is it why they want a new one and get all this money so what happens if the bears don't get all this money what are they going to likely do go find investors

    Ugly design BUT if it’s saved money - you have to consider it. Please also keep gender or racial inequalities out of Bears stadium development- sick of that mentality

      Do you get everything from the dollar store? You get what you pay for when you decide to be cheap. Chicago deserves better then this cheap looking stadium in a world class city.
