This is actually surreal, engineers that design this kind of stuff are nothing short of geniuses
-
no wonder spurs never have a transfer budget
-
Got to admit, that is one amazing stadium. State of the art. Super modern
-
Wow this stadium is impeccable, I was today's years old when I discovered such a marvel. Well done Spurs
-
Just wait until they reveal the go cart track below the NFL field
-
"never crashed anything in my life" hahaha

In Arnhem, The Netherlands, they move the whole field is moved in one piece to outside the stadium. That way it will get sun and rain while outside. The pit is not used for other sports but as a music theatre.
-
Fun Fact: They were only able to achieve the space required for this engineering feat by not building a trophy room in the stadium

What an engineering marvel! 🤯 Kudos Spurs owner... 👏
-
As an Arsenal fan it does pain me a little bit to say this. But this stadium is absolutely fantastic. (Even if it is just the Emirates 2.0 in terms of its design except for the NFL features) respect where it's due.

Every other stadium: just paints over it Spurs:

this is what the colosseum must've felt like back in the early ADs

The football playing surface at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium is composed of Desso GrassMaster hybrid turf. However, the stadium has the capacity for two pitches, with an artificial surface stowed under the football pitch for use in NFL games, concerts, and other events Just info for anyone wanting to know what the pitch types are 👍

"Its a natural thing to worry about the pitch." Yep, completely natural to be worried about 9000 tonnes of motorized grass.
-
Guess what: There's a basketball court below the NFL field
-
It was released by “discovery Australia” so that’s why he calls it soccer
-
Real Madrid’s stadium which is currently being renovated will have a mechanism that allows the ground to open up and have the pitch go undergound for other ones to go up in it’s place. No dragging fields all the way out of the stadium. Also when they’re undergound there is an automated watering system that takes care of the pitches down there.

I've been in engineering all my life and worked on some incredible sites but this takes the my breath away
