Bold idea that would change the landscape of sports in Cleveland
-
Big time college stadiums I have been in/around...gotten photos of :
Went to games at the Orange Bowl, and the Williams/Bryce Stadium, South Carolina Univ. (my in laws were big South Carolina fans, so that is why I went to a few of their games. I won't count the Rubber Bowl...or should I?
I have been in or around nearly every Big Ten schools stadium (but never went to a game): Nebraska, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois (went down on the field there), Purdue, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio State, Penn State, Iowa
SEC: Missouri, Arkansas, Auburn, SC as noted, Tennessee. Kentucky
ACC: Duke/NC/NCSt./Wake/FSU/Pitt/Syracuse/
Pac 12: Rose Bowl, Stanford, Cal, Washington, Colorado, Arizona, AZ St.
Big 12: Texas, Texas Tech , Oklahoma, Kansas, Kansas St./West Virginia
Others: Notre Dame, BYU, Boise St. Idaho St.
I may have missed some.
FYI....the "worst" stadium for security.....or, at least the seemingly most paranoid: Michigan. Obviously I did not go to a game, and you couldn't even get close to the stadium. They had like Auschwitz style fencing around it and you couldn't even get close to like seeing the field.
In many places I could walk right into the stadium, into the grandstand and take photos of the field. As I said, at Illinois, I was able to walk right down onto the field because they were having a bunch of Boy Scout actually having a camp out, right on the turf. I could have probably gone on to the field from the stands on some others, but I did not want to be that presumptuous....and while maybe being in the stands was not problem, getting on the actual field have been, so I didn't want to risk it.

No, if I were to use other words, I'd say you are a windbag.
So, in other words, you have nothing to say about what the Browns stadium future may look like, or what you want it to be? So, you have nothing productive to contribute to this conversation. In other words, it is all about you and your ego and not the topic. (so...whose ego needs stroked?)

I started this conversation.
As usual, you've ruined the conversation.
This shouldn't come to any surprise to you. This happens often on this board.

Trying to get back on topic. Do you have anything to contribute?
Retirement seems to be agreeing with you.....I think.
And you have some good points and pictures on the subject. Did you do any land or business acquisitions in your practice ?
GO BUCKEYES, BROWNS, INDIANS, CAVS, YSU, NAVY and yes I like ND! -

You dropped the ball. Is that typical of you?

Some, yes. ....certainly no billion dollar deals. I also worked with and sat on the board of a Community Development program that did some fair size deals.

Sorry you are bored and have nothing to contribute to what many more fans are concerned with....the quality of the stadium and the game day experience. You can go back to watching hours of film of Division 1_AA offensive linemen. ZZZZSSSSSnoooorkkk

So, in other words, you agree that I am right.

Whoa!
Now there's something I would agree with this guy on!

I believe you meant to ask, "Fair to say?"

Dead horse beaten well until tender marinated for 24 hours in a good steak sauce and grilled to perfection served with some baked root vegetables and a fine wine ? Eh ?

Might I suggest I pick up a bottle of the Houston Lifestock Show & Rodeo International Wine contest Gold Medal Reserve Class Champion "Corky Mule" from Thirsty Mule Winery about 5 miles or so from my house? Hee Haw!

Sorry you all don't like football, or that you do not identify with the interests of football fans.
But, I guess you are all correct in this regard: Based on my past couple of experiences, as I have noted above.....the in stadium game day experience IS highly disappointing and beyond, and perhaps we should not have any interest in taking any part of it, or in discussing it....particularly given the cost of it all. Let's just sit on our couches and watch the games.
Maybe I will just do that.

Football?
I thought this thread was about real estate...

Well this is kind of funny... there might be a new stadium coming to downtown Cleveland after all.... a soccer stadium.

Cool. I think you can probably see that parcel on some of the photos that are here above.
But....who would play there? They say a "minor league" soccer team. Why not an MLS team?
