It was designed to look like a classic Indiana basketball arena, believe it or not. Otherwise it would probably look similar to, say, the Vikings or Atlanta.
Saints fan here. The Chargers should’ve just stayed in San Diego at least until the stadium in L.A was built. Instead they’re playing in a 27,000 seat soccer stadium when they could be in Qualcomm playing with an actual home field advantage. Sucks to see good fans and team history completely screwed over by owner incompetence and greed.
The Culture is sooooo different to British Football ( soccer ) ! If teams move to a New Stadium just 1/2 mile away there is uproar and only once has a team turned their back on it's original support 20 years ago by moving 60 miles away and the pure hatred is still there...
RynieRynie I live in San Diego smartass. Spanos had a loyal fan base with the chargers and instead he moved the team to share a stadium with a team and city that was completely unnecessary. The saints have ever rarely played in SD since I’ve been here so I often found myself watching or attending chargers games when I could.
I thought the same until I attended a game at Stub Hub. Every seat has a great view and was far more exciting then any game I attended in San Diego. Tickets are more expensive but holy crap it was great to watch a game. Try attending a game before you judge.
Soldier Field, Lambeau Field, Arrowhead Stadium, Oakland Alameda, Paul Brown Stadium, LA Memorial.....the only venues that haven't resorted to corporate naming rights.
Well, accept for the almost 20 years the Oakland Alameda Coliseum seemed to change it's name every other year (Network Associates Coliseum (1998-2004), McAfee Coliseum (2004-2008), Overstock.com Coliseum (May 2011), O.co Coliseum (2011-2016).
Exactly. At one time stadiums were named after people or groups of people that deserved it. Since I live in southern Pennsylvania: Philadelphia had Veterans Stadium, named to honor those who served our country, now it's Lincoln Financial Field, a bank. In Baltimore Memorial Stadium was named to honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice; unlike M&T Bank Stadium, again a bank.
Especially when three stadiums are named for non-U.S. based corporations. Nissan (Houston) and Mercedes-Benz has not one, but two stadiums (New Orleans and Atlanta).
As a Raiders fan, i deeply respect the fact that Chargers are playing so well even though they play 16 on road games, wish my team had that kind of nerve!
I declined to see the Tigers play their Detroit Games. Cat-lovers, in general, never see me me at their level. "Its an animal thing." The Chronicles of Riddick (2014) Worse, in film (2012), feline owners aren't rescued. Other pet lovers, yes. I concluded it corrected one or two Ark errors made by Noah.
For some reason they kept comparing their current stadium to itself just a little earlier, rather than different stadiums. In America most of the stadiums are just rebuilt so they don’t really change appearance over time much, other than some cases like Green Bay and Chicago
Good point. If you're going back THAT far, they also should have shown Griffith Stadium instead of RFK for the Burgundy and Gold. Also, the Polo Grounds and Yankee Stadium for the Giants and Shea Stadium for the Jets.
I know all thee new stadiums are Architectural masterpieces but I'll always miss seeing those old legendary stadiums with John Madden and Pat Summerall calling the play by play.
The inconsistency of which stadium to use is kind of weird. If you’re going to use Tiger Stadium for the Lions, you should use Metropolitan Stadium for the Vikings. But if you’re going to use the Metrodome for the Vikings then you should’ve used the Silverdome for the Lions.
I like the ones where you can tell the subtle differences. Admittedly, some of them, it's a little TOO subtle, but the new scoreboards on Arrowhead and New Era make for something interesting to see.
John Wozniak I hate that they keep saying that we need a new stadium rich stadium is just fine we keep it moderate updated and still tops incapacity in the NFL so much history in our Stadium just to abandon their to build a new cookie cutter Stadium just like all the other new stadiums screw that rich Stadium is just fine and it has been since 1973 greetings from Buffalo New York my friend
Okay, let me add a fact about the Arizona Cardinals. They played their first season as the Phoenix Cardinals in 1988 in a college stadium at Arizona State University in Tempe, Arizona which still exist and is used by the Sun Devils. In 1994 they changed names from Phoenix to Arizona Cardinals. After years of demands and battling with the state and it's leaders. John F. Long a land owner donated his land in the west valley. They finally build the team a stadium in Glendale, Arizona which was completed for the 2006 season. It just transferred naming rights in 2018 from The University of Phoenix to State Farm Stadium.
@@josephtorres2258 Or the Chicago Cardinals before they moved to St. Louis? Hard to believe, but the Chicago Cardinals were organized as a team before both the Packers or Bears, which means they are the NFL's oldest franchise.
Victory Victini not sure what you’re trying to say but Tulane University had a football team and stadium before the saints were formed. Then afterwards the saints played at Tulane stadium a couple of years until the super dome was built.
I wonder if Tulane was really good back in the day. Remember the old Tulane Stadium had like what 80,000 capacity? It also hosted the Sugar Bowl which I remember was played on New Year's Eve in early 70's.
Wow!!! Excellent job!!! I enjoyed every minute of your video... Some of the stadiums I wish were still here... I wish you would have added Fulton County Stadium... But great job, thanks...
The old and now demolished “Memorial Stadium” on 33rd Street in Baltimore Maryland was left out. It was beautiful. I saw some Orioles games there before Camden Yards was built and a Ravens game during the first season and before the current stadium was built. No trace of Memorial Stadium exists anymore but I think if you dig around you may find some traces of the original Orioles Stadium before they became the Yankees in 1902.
a lot like RFK to DC fans-- I went to both-- seeing Johnny U & Brooks Robinson at Memorial Stadium-- was sports memories for a young kid-- you never forget...
I’ve been to games at Joe Robbie Stadium for years, and was there just a few weeks ago for the Dolphins vs. Chiefs. The improvements are more than welcome! The best part is, visiting teams have to bake in the south Florida sun, while the rest of us are in the shade 😎
RynieRynie idiot response from someone who has no idea. Just a hater I would say. Get a life and actually visit some of those stadiums. I have been to 11 of them and AT&T is the best. Vikings very close behind.
Not necessarily complete for many teams(ie Metropolitan Stadium, Yankee Stadium, Pontiac Silverdome, and War Memorial Stadium) but, it is a fun thumbnail comparison. I enjoyed this presentation.
Howcome the titans get shown with the Astrodome, which is in Houston before the team moved to Tennessee and changed the name, while the Colts doesn't show their stadium in Baltimore before they moved to Indianapolis?
About the Titans, Ol' Fatass Bud Adams tried to get then mayor of Houston, Robert Lanier, to build a new stadium. Mayor Lanier said no. He then moved the Oilers to Nashville. However, the Texans got this new stadium due to the NFL stepping in and telling Houston. "Build a new football stadium and you'll get your football team."
Bud Adams is a "hero" isn't he? Of course, the Tennessee Oilers, HQ'd in Nashville, played their first season's "home" games in the Memphis Liberty Bowl. Typical crowds were in the 27000 range and the visiting team fans often outdrew the new Tennessee faithful.
@@SCRANE1115 He really didn't do anything with the Titans. He did something for the city of Nashville, while his team was there, he stayed in Houston. What a damn shame that Nashville didn't get a full load of Bud.
Ha! I agree. I don't mean to be hard on just Bud Adams, but he seemed to be more of an arrogant shoe salesman with deep pockets. He was furious that NFL Licensing made him continue to use Oiler uniforms in Tennessee from 1997-98 before the rebranding to Titans (The NY Jets had used Titans from their 1960 inaugural season till the move to Shea Stadium from the Polo Grounds). Yea, Bud was a creative, community oriented force. Not! He blackmailed Houston taxpayers in paying, then $67 million in Astrodome upgrades for the 1989 season, or he was moving to Jacksonville, FL. (Art Modell, another con artist, did similar to Cleveland and Jim Irsay, Balt/Indianapolis Colt hero, did the same to Jacksonville hopefuls). Yep, the NFL and some owners love to mess with good fan bases and local governments/taxpayers.
@@marka.graffakasnakebitenat3736 + Well Bud Adams had every reason to move the Oilers. Most fans in Houston would love to have the name, and those Oiler uniforms back.
Man, I have so many memories of the RCA dome and I remember watching them destroy it live on the news. Now we have the beautiful Lucas oil stadium gracing our skyline
Am I the only one who thinks it's crazy what they did to Hard Rock Stadium in Miami? Like they changed the seat color, put in new scoreboards, a "roof" but it's not a dome. It's basically a new stadium on the same foundation, so to speak
I think from a financial standpoint they had no other choice. I remember reading that the dolphins wanted a new stadium, because the nfl weren't going to grant them anymore superbowls to host due to the age of dolphins stadium at the time. after the whole marline park funding debacle, the tax payers weren't going to sign off on a new pro sports facility anytime soon in miami. so the dolphins getting a new stadium was out of the question, but after lot of negotiating between the nfl, the city and the dolphins organization, they came to an agreement to just renovate the current stadium instead so that miami could continue to host superbowls.
@@RhinoXpress San Diego should've had the same approach. These sleazeball owners think that everyone is okay with getting taxed for a billion dollar stadium.
The picture of “soldier field” in 1924 is actually a picture of Wrigley. Up until 1971-72 the bears played in Wrigley. But because of safety concerns, the bears moved into Soldier Field.
The old picture actually is of Soldier Field, identifiable by the columns and shape of the stadium. It was built in 1924 as an all-purpose stadium. The Bears home field was indeed Wrigley Field prior to 1971 but did play sporadically at Soldier Field between the 1920's and 1960's usually exhibition games etc.
I so preferred Three Rivers Stadium. I agreed they needed two -- one for Pirates, one for Steelers, especially when games occurred on the same day -- but Heinz Field is just an open-air monstrosity.
Raymond James Stadium has had major upgrades since your “now” picture. Judging from the Hess signage on that now picture, a company that hasn’t sponsored the Bucs in over 10 years and IIRC is out of business AND the Ronde Barber and Joey Galloway posters, this pic is from 2005 or 2006 at the LATEST
Dude, The Ravens first stadium was the Memorial Stadium then they built M&T bank. Camden Yards is the Orioles Baseball Stadium in Baltimore. Did you guys even do Research? Lol
I’m not even a Colts/Ravens fan but I know that the Colts shared Memorial with the Orioles for many years. Then when the Colts left, the Orioles got Camden Yards and the Ravens used Memorial for like 1-2 seasons while the new stadium was built
Three Rivers Stadium, Candlestick Park, Mile High and Cleveland Municipal Stadium all have major history behind them and I miss the mystique that certain venues had back in the day. Not so much in the modern NFL
at 3:07, the stadium in the background is the "Then" stadium... known as the Big Sombrero, built in 1966 finished/opened in '67 was expanded in the 70's and then demolished in 1999 for the "Now" stadium that was built in 1996 and opened in 1998. The then and now pictures are from the upgrade "Ray Jay" had done in I think 2017. But 2018 also seen significant upgrades.. the place is awesome now (I live in Tampa)
I’m a cardinals fan so all I ever see is a big grey dome but it’s so fascinating seeing other stadiums from the sky I’m surprised on how many stadiums don’t actually have a think where you can open and close it
Might be temporary but the chargers still can’t fill it with there own fans,, every week it’s a running joke that the opposing team has more fans then the chargers do
The Gaming Master it’s old enough to actually give perspective on how much it’s changed though unlike day Lucas Oil Stadium (Colts) has only been the home of the Colts for less than 10 years
Chargers won't play in the StubHub center forever they will play in the same one as the Rams in a few years (why not show that and actually make these stadiums look cool)
Cool video! The Bucs old stadium is in the background of the comparison pic of Raymond James, on the left. It was called the "sombrero" for it's appearance. The team received a new logo as well as a new stadium, and they still suck. GO SUCKS, love you Tampa!
The older stadiums were much more coliseum-like, with several having round enclosed exteriors. Much more aesthetically pleasing from the the outside, but probably not the best for maximizing seating and views.
Back then, they were called “cookie-cutter” stadiums. They were built at a time (1970’s) when the most cost effective way to build stadiums were to combine both baseball and football into one. It wasn’t until the 1990’s when both baseball and football teams decided to do away with these outdated stadiums and financed their own baseball and football only stadiums. The only multipurpose stadium that remains is the Oakland Coliseum, which the A’s and Raiders had been sharing for over 50 years now.

The Radiers are moving to Vegas. That stadium will have a name on it.

US bank is amazing on the inside. Going from the metrodome to us bank stadium was like going from hell to heaven.

i'm having a hard time trying to notice any differences on a lot of these stadia.
Novaura Autism Bank of America is different, but the person that made the video used a old pic.
They add new video boards. And Make the exterior look nicer.
The only difference I saw with Raymond James Stadium was the old Tampa Stadium disappearing.
It's because they are remodeled and not rebuilt
For some reason they kept comparing their current stadium to itself just a little earlier, rather than different stadiums. In America most of the stadiums are just rebuilt so they don’t really change appearance over time much, other than some cases like Green Bay and Chicago
And why didn't you use the Silverdome instead of Tiger Stadium for the Lions?

And of course the Astrodome, the home of the Tennessee Titans...
Agreed. They should've left it with the first half, old stadiums that have been renovated. The second half wasn't put together well.

The Bears home field was indeed Wrigley Field prior to 1971 but did play sporadically at Soldier Field between the 1920's and 1960's usually exhibition games etc.
most of these are just, "hey check it out! It's been painted at least once!"
This was cool
Not the same angle on the Arrowhead comparison.... the shots are from the opposite ends.
I so preferred Three Rivers Stadium. I agreed they needed two -- one for Pirates, one for Steelers, especially when games occurred on the same day -- but Heinz Field is just an open-air monstrosity.
Damn they destroyed all the character soldier field had
And somehow reduced the seating capacity in the process...
Never had character to begin with.

Wrong, dude.
@@MrFuzyUnibrow wait, what? you serious?
great research!
Miss the old Three Rivers Stadium. The Heinz Field ain’t my kind of thing
agree 100%
Raymond James Stadium has had major upgrades since your “now” picture. Judging from the Hess signage on that now picture, a company that hasn’t sponsored the Bucs in over 10 years and IIRC is out of business AND the Ronde Barber and Joey Galloway posters, this pic is from 2005 or 2006 at the LATEST
it was sad when Candlestick went down
I never thought I needed to watch a video so badly..
The packers stadium was moved a little bit off the area of the old field
No, it wasn’t.
Yes it was I have talked to a person at lambou field and he said part of the path way was standing on the old field in 1957 and someone agrees with me
A guy that worked there
Classy video
1:39 is what it looks like when the Jags are playing.
Lucas Oil Stadium is by far my favorite. Plus the Super Bowl they had there in Indianapolis was one of the bests I’ve even been too.
Last video I watched of 2018 👋🏻🎉
well done.
Raymond James Stadium hasn't really changed much, it opened in 1998 so you should have used the previous Tampa Stadium.
That's the one where WWE uses for two Wrestlemanias like 36 and 37
I might be in the minority on this one, but I think Denver’s stadium has the coolest looking shape (along with Atlanta)
Dude, The Ravens first stadium was the Memorial Stadium then they built M&T bank. Camden Yards is the Orioles Baseball Stadium in Baltimore. Did you guys even do Research? Lol
Same with the Chargers
The Orioles play at Oriole Park at Camden Yards. The Ravens stadium is part of Camden Yards.
M & T Bank is in Camden Yards, did you even do research?
Actually the Ravens first stadium was in Cleveland
I’m not even a Colts/Ravens fan but I know that the Colts shared Memorial with the Orioles for many years. Then when the Colts left, the Orioles got Camden Yards and the Ravens used Memorial for like 1-2 seasons while the new stadium was built
Three Rivers Stadium, Candlestick Park, Mile High and Cleveland Municipal Stadium all have major history behind them and I miss the mystique that certain venues had back in the day. Not so much in the modern NFL
The colts stadium look like it went from new to old
No, you don't get it. The RCA Dome was built poorly and with little money. So yeah its old to new!
Mr Rainbow Roblox Let's Player r/whoosh
Lol ..
agree 100%,that old look only works for baseball also
at 3:07, the stadium in the background is the "Then" stadium... known as the Big Sombrero, built in 1966 finished/opened in '67 was expanded in the 70's and then demolished in 1999 for the "Now" stadium that was built in 1996 and opened in 1998. The then and now pictures are from the upgrade "Ray Jay" had done in I think 2017. But 2018 also seen significant upgrades.. the place is awesome now (I live in Tampa)
I'm still trying to figure how ATL got 2 brand new stadiums in a 20 year span....
I heard the infrastructure was bad
I’m a cardinals fan so all I ever see is a big grey dome but it’s so fascinating seeing other stadiums from the sky I’m surprised on how many stadiums don’t actually have a think where you can open and close it
is it just me or does the georgia dome look really small
Its you.
I wish madden had a build a stadium mode so we could rebuild the demolished stadiums
Stub hub is temporary
Rip Shea Stadium :(
Soda King
But that’s Baseball and Nothing to do with the Chargers..
but shitty attendance is permanent
Hopefully that field looks as square as a robots head
Might be temporary but the chargers still can’t fill it with there own fans,, every week it’s a running joke that the opposing team has more fans then the chargers do
The Mercedes Benz stadium from the outside looks incredible
The saints didn’t always play in the Superdome
The Gaming Master it’s old enough to actually give perspective on how much it’s changed though unlike day Lucas Oil Stadium (Colts) has only been the home of the Colts for less than 10 years
Baseball edition, please!
Chargers won't play in the StubHub center forever they will play in the same one as the Rams in a few years (why not show that and actually make these stadiums look cool)
Whoa! Look how much reliant stadium changed! It's like a whole DIFFERENT stadium!!!!
expos -- my all time favorite team,and i never been to Montreal in my life -hope you get a team back --they still got robbed on that players strike
Just a quick note on the Bears's stadium history. The Bears played about 50 years at Wrigley Field, then moves to Soldier Field in the early 70s.
And that was only after the NFL forced them by requiring all NFL facilities to seat at least 50,000 people.
Cool video! The Bucs old stadium is in the background of the comparison pic of Raymond James, on the left. It was called the "sombrero" for it's appearance. The team received a new logo as well as a new stadium, and they still suck. GO SUCKS, love you Tampa!
The chargers stadium holds like 10k people good lord
because thy play in the Soccer Stadium in Carson. WHhen the new stadium is ready they will move out.
its temporary though
It holds 27,000, yet they still can’t seem to fill out the stadium
27 thousands

I like the saints, live in Louisiana what’s your favorite NFL team? Tell me if u have a chance!
Rice Stadium in Houston was the Houston Oilers Stadium
The Pikachu of Texas Only from '65 to '67
The older stadiums were much more coliseum-like, with several having round enclosed exteriors. Much more aesthetically pleasing from the the outside, but probably not the best for maximizing seating and views.
Back then, they were called “cookie-cutter” stadiums. They were built at a time (1970’s) when the most cost effective way to build stadiums were to combine both baseball and football into one. It wasn’t until the 1990’s when both baseball and football teams decided to do away with these outdated stadiums and financed their own baseball and football only stadiums. The only multipurpose stadium that remains is the Oakland Coliseum, which the A’s and Raiders had been sharing for over 50 years now.
This was a very poor video. Lost of inaccuracies and many stadiums weren't even shown. Very disappointed not to see the *Old Sombrero* in Tampa Bay.
Went to a game at the old Sombrero 1978 , Vikings- Bucs .....it was hot! Not alot of protection from the Sun
i walked on that filed (non game day) visiting nearby Gulf on a vacation in Florida and when i walked outside some poor guy got killed on that street outside on a motorcycle (bad experience) wrecked my vacation
Tbh many of the old stadiums were a lot more beautiful
