They just had to will this out there!

Why Seattle Seahawks sale could mean a new stadium - Seattle Sports

ESPN's Seth Wickersham shared why his report on the Seattle Seahawks' sale included a detail about a potential new stadium.

I'm so sick of this new stadium crap, after 20-25 years for most teams.
You pay hundreds of millions to a billion (Taxpayers) You think it should
last.
I hope the build a mega dome, bigger than Lucas Oil with a retractable
roof.

Truly no reason for a new stadium. Remodel if you need to. I can't imagine this is even a thing, but it is very annoying to even hear it being put out there as an idea. I've lived here basically my entire life. There is ZERO chance a new stadium would get approved if it meant more taxes out here. IF they want a new stadium the new owners can pay the whole damn thing out of pocket.
Nothing wrong with Lumen, it's a great place to watch football.

I agree except when its downpouring rain in there.

If they are going to be crazy, go full crazy... bring back the Kingdome, cement field and all

Given the mayors feelings regarding multi-billion dollar businesses hope they don't say bye

ESPN throwing shade, our stadium has continually been upgraded, they are just creating talking points hoping it hits home.

Seahawks getting blackmailed like what the NBA does? No new stadium, we will move the team... Thats a fantastic stadium and has years of life left.

Fortunately Goodell is not Stern, he knows the value of Seattle

You mean that alien-looking mofo Adam Silver, not Stern (who died years ago).

But you're right either way.

No, pretty sure he meant Stern as he is the one that helped Bennett steal the Sonics.

 

[Ruminator]

Oh, of course. Seattle should always have two or three football/soccer stadiums under construction at differing progression timelines so they can do a complete stadium replacement every two years. Gotta do whatcha gotta do to keep the Seahawks and Sounders happy, viable, and competitive in the league, right?

I can see that. I guess I just think football should be played in the elements.
There's nothing wrong with Lumen.

Silver didn't have the Sonics moved, Stern did which is why I referenced him.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Yep. It definitely was David Stern.

Generally I agree… if you are going to use real turf. Otherwise cover it up and make the fans comfortable.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

I could definitely think of a few games over the years where I wouldn't have minded being undercover

Having the pleasure of attending NFL games in 22 different stadiums, Lumen is WAY up on the top of the list. I'm totally biased and would rank it first. Sightlines are perfect whether you are in lower bowl or last row of upper deck. Concessions are everywhere and very little wait at any time for beer. Scoreboard and replays are excellent. Sound is fantastic. As I type this, can't wait for my next home Seahawks game!

 

[SoulfishHawk]

22 stadiums? That's really cool. I've probably been to maybe 10. Lumen by far is the best of the bunch.

I just went to Allegiant Stadium for for a concert. Wow Lumen is so much nicer. If our stadium is a 7.5 Allegiant is a 4.5. Yikes. What a bad atmosphere.

I can’t believe that Lumen field is the same age as the kingdome when the kingdome was destroyed… the kingdoms felt ancient compared to the technological advancement that is Lumen.
