Highbury, London - Old Arsenal Stadium:

Emirates Stadium - Arsenal:

Very Nice Pics from the EPL!

I have only been to 8, but they are varied: Olympic Stadium @ Seoul for the 1988 Bronze Medal Game, Spartan Stadium @ San Jose for Clash Games, Soldier Field in Chicago for Fire Games, Lincoln Financial Field @ Philadelphia for the Copa America Centenario (USA vs. Paraguay), RFK Stadium @ Wash., D.C. for an International Friendly (USA vs. NZ men), Gettler Stadium @ Cincinnati for U.S. Open Cup (FCC vs. Detroit FC), Aviva Stadium @ Dublin for International friendly (USA vs. Ireland) and Nippert Stadium @ Cincinnati for FC Cincinnati games + 1 International Friendly (USA vs. NZ Women). I must say that both Spartan Stadium @ San Jose and Nippert Stadium @ Cincinnati are both cozy stadiums for International Football even though they are older American Football Stadiums. I've also seen teams from MLS, USL, Bundesliga (Bayer Leverkusen), Mexican League (Guadalajara Chivas) and La Liga (Barcelona Espanyol) + Olympic Teams (West Germany vs. Italia) + International sides (USA-M/W, New Zealand-M/W, Paraguay-M and Ireland-M). I'm kicking up my game this year with Season tickets to FCC and going to the Gold Cup @ Cleveland in June.

Here is the Olympic Stadium @ Seoul:
