To my shame Guns, no. Had tickets a few years back to the RDS but took ill and last season I had to work (at least be present at work) for the pro 12 final. It's on the list but I have to say I hope to make limerick an annual thing and next year we are already talking about an overnight in Galway so time will tell.

Spose it does. Wouldnt mind picking up a NFL game in Wembley. Nice collection. You need to pick up a GAA championship match in Croke parke to top it off. College football (American) games are class too.

I went to the 2009 All Ireland, but never been to Croke for rugby sadly, and probably never will now. I did try to catch a college football game but it was cancelled on the day, pity. I did catch a Knicks game though, that was fun.

I'm yet to catch a hockey game in the US (US crowds are so fun), and baseball too.

Can you tell I'm a bit of a sports geek, everytime I travel the wife asks what we should see and it always starts with what local sports are playing that time.

I couldn't get my head around the rules, especially the scoring system, but I was told to support Kilkenny beforehand and they did me proud.

Excel is a big conference centre and was used for things like boxing, judo, fencing. It was awesome for fencing. If they just added lightsaber sounds to the swords, it could be the next big spectator sport.

This is quite a good exercise for the old memory cells...

Rugby
Twickenham
Millenium
Stadio Flaminio
Does the train station adjoining the Aviva count??
Kingsholm
The Rec
Memorial Stadium / Ashton Gate
Sandy Park
Sixways
Madjeski
Adams Park / Loftus Road
The Stoop
Vicarage Road
Kassam
Franklin's Gardens
Headingley
Old Big Side Wink

Football
In the days I used to actively support Wycombe I went to quite a lot so the one's that I can remember either stadium or team are:
Loakes Park
Wembley
Selhurst Park
Brentford
Hereford
Cheltenham
Torquay
Exeter
Oxford
West Brom
Coventry
Runcorn
Chester
Carlisle
Eastlands
Cardiff
Walsall
Rotherham
Kidderminster
Sutton
Macclesfield

In terms of other sports I've been to Dodger Stadium for the LA Dodgers; does Cheltenham School count for the cricket festival, but Edgebaston too; Cheltenham, Newbury & Newmarket for horse racing; Poole, Swindon & Oxford for the dogs; Don Valley & Crystal Palace for athletics; but the finest was Cheltenham Town Hall for proper wrestling between Big Daddy and Giant Haystacks boxing

Millenium stadium

Liberty stadium
Vetch field (Swansea FC)
Saint Helens (Swansea RFC)
Talbot Athletic ground (Aberavon RFC)

The Whitworth (Tonmawr RFC)

I won't include teams I have been to as a supporter "below" Welsh Premiership level, or grounds that I have played at, because the list would be long and pointless.

To those of you that have been to the Stade de France, how is it? I'm taking my grandfather there for his 80th birthday to see France vs England.

I was there for the Quins v Stade H-Cup game a few years back. I thought it was a good stadium, plenty of atmosphere - easy to get to on the metro etc.

I see the Seattle Seahawks stadium in the US was so noisy following a touchdown they caused a mini earthquake that was picked up by monitoring officials...think 1-2 on the richter scale.

It is a football stadium, I went to the outdoor winter classic. It was the first time they've done it, a college double header and yes, it was bloody freezing.
