All in all, probably my favourite stadium right now.

You're right, the fans are RIGHT on top of the players.

In this one -from the last USA vs MEX- we can see more space in the corners...

I see, the long sides end zone corner stands can be removed.

if my team had a stadium like this. I would buy a season ticket every year.

@ Details: very good pictures. With this setting this stadium qualifies for all the official rules! I am very happy that this fantastic stadium is one of the examples for the new to be built Feyenoord Stadium in Rotterdam, The Netherlands!

As an example for a future football stadium (Soccer stadium for the US members of the fourm) it hardly gets any better than this one in Houston!

Wrestlemania is the rednecks' favorite sport ("rasslin", as they call it).

F... wrestling

Looks like Redneck Central to me.
The stadium however is awesome. The football (I mean the real football) pitch looks great.

Fangorn Fog · April 6th, 2009, 11:04 PM

Reliant Stadium look awsome for Wrestlemania but i still have a problem with WWE's current camera views. when they have the side ring shot, you really dont see the scope, and its probably cause the camera is angeled down to low. If you watch it you really doesnt seem like 72,000 + poeple. Same problem with Ford Field at WM23. 80,000? Where, with all the stupid lights and rigging it didnt see anything massive.

Pro wrestling is such a waste of TV. TBS could be showing re-runs of Family Guy 6 times while this crap was on and get more viewers.

I think it's entertaining. You should watch the ladder match from the show.

Its still not real

Marcanadian · April 7th, 2009, 09:55 PM

So if someone breaks their arm it's not real? It's scripted not fake, there's a difference.

Actors hurt themselves while filming movies all the time, but in the end, what they're portraying isnt real. Theres a difference between "real" and an occupational hazard. Dont confuse the two.

And Im sorry, but when i see someone "punch" someone else in wrestling, I just laugh.

or maybe youre this guy

But 'fake' isn't exactly the right word. The storylines and moves are fake if that's what you mean. But the risks are real, just as you said if actors hurt themselves.

Yes, risks might be real, but it doesnt automatically make the whole thing "real". Its like watching a bad B movie, but with even worse acting.
