These new stadiums are bringing a lot of interest from top players.

A question for Nashvillians: How are public transit options since I don't have a car so if I were to visit public transit would be my only option. A while back a Koch Brothers backed campaign to torpedo a light rail line succeeded. Since then has there been any attempts to revive talks or at least offer BRT (Bus Rapid Transit)? I live near the stadium of Shalke 04 and it's pretty crazy to see tons of people descending towards the stadium with various modes of transit - either on foot, by bike, by light rail, by bus and lastly by car. After the match its also pretty amazing to see the ebb flow back "into the sea" so to speak - the cheering, chants, inebriatededly stumbling back. Sadly there's not really any pubs nearby so perhaps not the greatest example. Nevertheless, my experiences after sports games in America have been subdued by the very private experience of everyone going to and from the game, all done with cars. Granted there are exceptions with certain stadiums (Cincinnati, Seattle . ..etc) in a somewhat urban core. Sadly though, many of these urban stadiums are located next to freeways, which have scarred many American cities, so there's not much to do around their either. On that point, is the Nashville location somewhat a purely destination stadium? Can fans do anything around it before or after the game? I imagine, since these stadiums are much more about real estate than the stadium itself, they'll build some kind of a "night life" bar area around it but I never appreciated these kinds of South Park-esque "SoDaSoPa" centers. They seem way too artificial, inorganic and cookie cutter like purely oriented around consumption with their sports bars inundating patrons with speakers blaring music everywhere and a gazillion TVs. I much prefer to frequent a privately owned pub done much in the Irish/British style. I hope to be proven wrong, for I've never been to Nashville, let alone Tennessee.

@@jjandorliadul Terrible. I live next to the stadium. The streets are packed quite bad but they are doing shuttles to the stadium from lots far away with bussing.

@@reformedartist8528 It seems you are accustom to a specific way of life when it comes to attending a sports event. Here in america most everyone has a car and their is ton of parkings available. You can take a shuttle to the stadium, you can take rideshare, etc.

@@jjandorliadul the stadium is a bit far away from downtown Nashville so food and stuff might be hard but there is Ubers and shuttles to get there. It’s also kinda easy to walk from a certain area

Lies again? Net Flix Rise Of Titans

Soccer is the most popular sports in usa tho

@@baccamau80 Soccer is rated 5th rn closing in on Hockey. All sports are growing, but not as fast as soccer currently.

Yeah it crazy! The backrow seats are only 150 feet away from the pitch. (horizontally) this is going to be such a tight, intimate atmosphere!

Exactly. I am so excited to see their stadium. This is a great day for soccer in America.

And they were all full!

it's a bit bare-bones for my liking

Thanks fam. See you May 11th!

And may 11

@@danny70792 I'm not going to the USOC match

@Channel Name First Generation.

It's going to be a Couple Decades before we get our own Stadium.

They’re getting one kind of like that

The stadium isn't really all that special, structural wise... The one in Cincinnati is far more impressive and should be what nycfc should aspire to emulate.

Still the real colors tho

Because most stadiums in Italy are awful.

@@peterburry2531 Because most of the stadiums should be restored,,,,

@@vincenzomaitre3047 Which is a problem, because most stadiums in Italy are municipally owned

It’s becoming way more popular and soon it will kick off big time

Keep being obsessed with us. We just do it better

Not soccer specific, though

@@skentals it was made for soccer specific

@@bobbysworldrox If i'm not wrong, toronto stadium also hosts argonauts (a football team) in the stadium. here in Nashville, we wont have any other team sharing the stadium

@@numbahone1434 that's irrelevant. What matters is what the stadium was designed for. A bunch of MLS specific stadiums share or have multi use when soccer team isn't playing. That does not make them sky less soccer specific

Boston vs New England would be a fantastic and much needed derby rivalry

Ya

Yes. But BMO is not a soccer specific stadium (it also hosts a Canadian football team, the Argonauts)

@@martinottesen1053 It 100% is soccer specific. The word is specific, not exclusive. Built to soccer specifications, for soccer primarily. The Argos are a recent tenant in a soccer stadium that was there before them.

@@apferrando I think it stops being specific when seats are removed for the football team

@@alexwilliamwin they added 8,000 seats. And 3000 need to be removed for football.

Great looking stadium but I think FC Cincinnati's is hard to beat

No way. The exterior is horrible... FC Cincinnati stadium is far superior

all MLS teams with their own stadium is real grass.

@@numbahone1434 Portland Timbers have turf

I kinda like the bare metal look it makes the stadium look open

@@Fuzzhead392 That's the fun about art, and architecture is art. We all have different opinions. :) Regardless, it's great to see another soccer specific stadium open.

@@Fuzzhead392 That and among some other features were to keep with the industrial kind of look of the surrounding Nashville neighborhoods.

It's cheaply constructed, but I guess that's not really a concern when you're one of the 30,000 inside on a match day.

Porque as duas esquipes são parecidas

That was my exact first thought

Damn I was thinking the same thing from first sight.

The way Columbus is so obsessed with Nashville is embarrassing lol

@@BeautflDisaster4 ikr

No I think BMO field holds 28k ,so this will be the largest Soccer Specific Stadium in MLS.

According to Wiki, BMO holds 30,000 but it is also home to a Canadian football team, Toronto Argonauts, therefore making it not soccer-specific.

@@skentals BMO Field was built for Soccer, the Argos just moved into the stadium recently.

@@TheTroyc1982 But that means it's not SSS

Keep being obsessed with Nashville. It’s embarrassing for Columbus lol

@@BeautflDisaster4 It's a very accurate and fair comparison... Come back when you've some brickwork and exterior cladding.

It is based on European stadium models. But that's what's best for this magnificent sport. Being close to the field and the players in an arena made for the supporters and not to accommodate as many people as possible is also what makes sport the most beautiful in the world.

@@Drag_21 Its not that, it’s that from behind the stands and outside u can see the stands. There’s nothing standing between the stands and the outside

@@Drag_21 if it was really based on an European design, most of the seats would’ve been cover by the roof….

@@leataripledajaug European stadiums are not bare-boned in that way... I'm hoping that the club invest in some brickwork and exterior cladding in the coming years

I park right in front of the stadium for 20$. Less than .05 mile away. No traffic either

34,000 people including employees and 4,000 parking places.🤔

I hope the atmosphere becomes as good as Signal Iduna Park!

No chance... Sign Iduna Park is a vastly superior structure

@@peterburry2531 Insecurity spotted. 👆🏾

@@geminiseason6901 I'm not even a Dortmund fan, but it's obvious to anyone that Sign Park is far superior

@@peterburry2531 I'm not a Dortmund fan either, but they are just comparing looks. Is Signal Iduna Park superior in terms of trophies? 🤷🏿‍♂️

Pro: short walking distance to the stadium Con: heavy traffic on game day if you’re not attending a game

Another pro: make easy money by letting people park in your driveway since there’s not a lot of parking spaces at the stadium

Also it’s suppper loud and might be a hendernce

@@3DInnovations70 Not really a problem when it's just a couple of hours per week, and often even less than that

Not quite. They have concerts there during the week also and the fireworks go off until around 1:00. It sounds like a bomb going off in that metal stadium.🤔@@peterburry2531

Not in that stadium... Nice for MLS but way below standard and capacity for a WC

Yes... FC sounds much classier and is the real deal

No its to small

@@gabrielmendez177530k is a big crowd but area wise yeah it is small

No chance

Tell me you've never been to the South without telling me you've been to the South. jk. MLS knows not to schedule day games in the South during the summer. And that has to do more with humidity than sunlight. The only game people will have to worry about is May 1st and Sept 10th (230pm start vs Galaxy).

You aren’t from here, are you? lol

False. Go to all the games and it’s fine. Most games are late anyway

Keep being mad lol

@@BeautflDisaster4 yeah no one even has a problem with it lol

NYCFC in particular are an embarrassment to the league... I can't even watch the highlights because the sight-lines and pitch dimensions are so appallingly bad. Chicago paid $60 million to end their contract at Bridgeview and their situation is now actually worse. New England's isolated, soulless NFL bowl is bad enough without the plastic playing surface, but Robert Kraft couldn't care less about such 'minor irritations'.

That won’t happen, trust me it won’t, we love this sport, but football is literally in a person’s blood here, and if it’s to be the number one sport, it would have to pass like 3 other sports leagues. The MLS is growing but it still can’t compete with the two major sports leagues in the US, the NBA and the NFL. So in conclusion soccer is growing and will be big in the us, but it won’t surpass basketball or The NFL

Sigh. Okay. And? The term soccer is ingrained into our culture at this point. Even if the NFL were to suddenly go away, we would still call it soccer because that's the way it is. The gatekeeping from you Eurosnobs is insane. Go worry about the Champions League. Go worry about the conclusion of the Premier League. If you don't like the American perspective on the beautiful game, then focus your clearly biased perspective on something else.
