Why do you need a jumbo screen at a racetrack? I dont get it. Been to a few races at Texas Motor Speed way and never once looked at the portable big screens they had. It looks nice and all and might be biggest but not near the WOW factor of Cowboys Stadium in my opinion.

Videocube is the largest of its kind in Scandinavia and the Baltic countries, and one of the biggest in all Europe - Zalgiris Arena

One Zalgiris arena cube plane is about 21.5 square meters area

Neyland Stadium, Knoxville, TN




I am not sure how big it is, but I believe it is the largest in the SEC.

BC Place - Vancouver British Columbia, Canada

From Wikipedia:

The updated BC Place Stadium also features the second largest (68 by 38 feet) (21 × 12 m) centre-hung high definition scoreboard in North America after the one in Cowboys Stadium.

When this videocube was installed? By the way, in the middle of your cube (2nd platform) is not from LCD or LED

He is not only impressive in size, but the latest, highest quality technology, "- assured the company" Darepro Baltic countries representing the Estonian Vahermetsas Peep.

Because he's Bruton Smith. It's rumored that his goal wasn't to build a bigger screen than the Cowboys but one that could match the size of his ego, Panasonic informed him that this was not possible so he had them build this one instead. Plus it's auto racing, auto racing is one giant celebration of excess, might as well run with it.

It's more impressive than Arlington's by the way. Much.

If its anything like most race track boards its a long way from the audience, therefore looking small. At Cowboys Stadium its overwhelming because its right in your face and changes the color or mood of the entire space.

Montgomery Riverwalk Stadium in Montgomery, Alabama. One of the largest minor league baseball stadium scoreboards, at least in the Southeast. It is the largest in the AA Southern League. Measures 30x36 feet. This new scoreboard also featured the addition of a ribbon board in the Left Field wall that is 8x100 feet.

LOL what is with the obsession of building large ass screens in Texas? From the picture, this screen honestly looks like a distraction. And I don't understand their motivation for it. At least with the Cowboys stadium, one of the motivations for the massive screen was that not a whole lot of other stadiums in the league could facilitate that kind of technology. However, in the NBA/NHL, pretty much everyone can afford massive screens in their arena.
