MDH, I know you try to post venue size sometimes. I just read 'stadiums' as 'arenas'

  - Mebbe I've got too much of a concert mind but to me Stadium = 50-80K attendance and the headaches of going to NFL game vs Arena = 12-20K and going to - JD Mar 7, 08:13 4
    - The capacity one that's tough is "Amphitheater." Those can generally be 20-25k, but so many mid-size ones have popped up. -- nm - MDH Mar 7, 08:41 1
      - Amphitheaters must have GA lawn space in addition to assigned seating - my rules only -- nm - rollo Mar 7, 08:45
    - 12-30K or so but I agree with your distinction -- nm - rollo Mar 7, 08:38
    - In my mind they have always been the same. And I grew up with Market Square Arena, even. -- nm - Spawn Mar 7, 08:19
