Arrowhead Stadium — home of the Kansas City Chiefs — had the highest percentage of players (17.9 percent) vote it as the best NFL stadium among the 84 players who responded to the question. The Minnesota Vikings’ U.S. Bank Stadium (13.7 percent), the Los Angeles Rams and Chargers’ SoFi Stadium (8.9 percent), the Green Bay Packers’ Lambeau Field and the Seattle Seahawks’ Lumen Field (both 8.3 percent) followed in the rankings for best stadium.

Players also sounded off on the league’s worst venues to play in, with the New York Jets and Giants’ MetLife Stadium outranking the others (18.4 percent) in that category. The Washington Commanders’ FedEx Field (13.9 percent) and Buffalo Bills’ Highmark Stadium (12.7 percent) were the other top vote-getters for the worst stadium to play in.

I’m too old for this shit; I had to look up which stadium was bought by MetLife.

What are they calling Joe Robbie these days?

You know it's bad when your stadium gets outvoted by one that literally sent spectators tumbling onto Hurts last season

[–] buffalucci@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

The visiting locker room here in Buffalo is really bad. I’ve seen much better High School rooms.

[–] Papplebeast@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I'm surprised Nissan Stadium isn't higher on the "good" list because of the free wins.

[–] SuperScrodum@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

MetLife stadium holds a Guinness world record for the biggest trash can in the world.

I will never understand why Giants ownership caved so much to the Jets ownership on the design. This is like the Yankees caving to the Mets, and I'm a die hard Mets fan.

[–] Jammer_Kenneth@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I wonder how Rams fans feel about Chargers fans and how the mutual input influences the design.

[–] IrateBarnacle@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Don’t they both own 50% of it?

[–] Head_Acanthisitta256@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

MetLife is an absolute grey depressing looking dump in the middle of nowhere.

And the field is a mess. Just get real grass and roll it in on game days like Glendale does.

[–] lonesoldier4789@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

the field was replaced

[–] NyJets2024Champs@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

We’ve had nothing to cheer for including the giants. Its a giant AC unit but when stakes are attached MetLife is rocking

[–] Garak_The_Tailor_@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

How are we not the worst?

[–] Accomplished-One6109@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

There are no redeeming qualities about MetLife. Ugly to look at, awful field, the food is terrible, too big, and a pain in the ass to get to from the city (I live in NYC).

[–] dammitOtto@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

It's so ugly inside. Not a single finished floor, wall, ceiling in the concourses, and the structure looks like it didn't fit together right. It feels like they ran out of money and said, crap, wrap it up the season is starting.

[–] chevyboxer@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Only NFL stadium that feels like a college stadium

Was watching MNF and said out loud how much I’d like to see a game at Arrowhead. That stadium looks so fun to be in.

[–] Bears9Titles@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Stop calling it by it's fake name. They sold out and lost the right to call it arrowhead. GEHA is the name of the complex. Don't give me the stadium is still called arrowhead crap, been over this multiple times the past couple years

[–] RealPropRandy@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

MetLife is where knee ligaments go to die.

[–] StrngBrew@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

So two turf fields are in the top 3? Thats a surprise

[–] Ergonomic_Butt_Plug@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Metlife and Levi Stadiums are two of the most mediocre stadiums to be built in the last 15 years. It's ridiculous. Who approved these two to break ground?

[–] Dand3r@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Completely agree. Levi's is depressingly mediocre. The niners have been playing there for 9 years now and it still doesn't feel like home. It just feels like a place where the niners book a few weekends a year to play.

It's also a disaster for fans. If you want a beer during the game, you're missing at least half a quarter because of the lines. Some braindead design team thought having the upper bowl and lower bowl feeding into the same concourse was a good idea.

F you, Jed York.

[–] LeftyMode@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Mara and Co. can’t do shit right. I never seen a stadium get built and becomes outdated in the middle of construction.

[–] iamtehryan@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Oh hell yeah. I don't even care if it was barely more than 80 players that voted. Seeing us bank as number two is sweet.

[–] ThrowBatteries@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Even on 1 free medium Pepsi day?

[–] Late_Pool_5425@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

What’s wrong with MetLife? The turf?

[–] WiredMeds@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I went to a commanders game that cost 10 dollars per ticket and I felt ripped off
