As a Packers fan, I'd rate Soldier Field higher from a spectator experience standpoint.  Nice sight lines, decent seating, traditional chants, obviously a great weekend destination.

I heartily agree with the ranking of #1 and #31.

Definitely something special about Packers games.   Great vibe from tailgating to walking through the old neighborhoods to the games. 


You almost feel like you're being taken back in history to the 50's.  Then you get hammered and cheer the pack on with a huge Jumbo screen supporting your enjoyment.   Nice mix of old and new.

You mean Monster Field I think. I've never heard anyone call it Candlestick (do I really need to teal text that?)

Candlestick is awful. I grew up only going to Packers games at Candlestick and I thought all NFL stadiums were like that. Thank God I got a chance to actually go up to Lambeau, where the field and the stadium is as important to the experience a the actual game.

Seahawks with #3 stadium is a joke.

As a Chiefs fan, I know we truly rank in the top 5, and the writer admitting that he had never been there but still ranked us 13 is some proof.

"Chiefs fans, I’m going to be honest with you. I’ve never been to a game at Arrowhead and know very little about the stadium. I put you guys in the 13 spot because you just dumped $375 million into renovations and you’re regarded as some of the best fans in the league"

Also, sorry Indy fans, but any ranking that places an indoor stadium above an outdoor stadium is awful.

As a Packer fan, I will say Arrowhead is the first one on my list of NFL stadiums I'd like to see a game at before I die.
