    Sokol Stadion Mechenice- Mechenice
    Velky Strahov- Praha (not for any event, it's useless, but broke into it while living at a nearby kolej [student housing])

    USA
    Superdome- New Orleans

    Vanderbilt Stadium- Nashville
    Sanford Stadium- Athens, Ga
    Vaught-Hemmingway- Oxford, Ms
    Liberty Bowl- Memphis
    Veterans Memorial- Jackson, MS

    A decent list of mainly crappy stadiums; Sanford Stadium is easilly the nicest of these IMO. Worst... that's tough, Strahov is unused and falling apart, but RFK, Liberty Bowl, and the one in Jackson are equally as derelict.

    Man All these list make me very jealous and embarrassed with mine:

    NFL- RCA Dome
    NBA- Conseco Fieldhouse
    Hockey (AHL)- Norfolk Scope

    Baseball
    AAA- Victory Field (Indy)
    Harbor Park (Norfolk)
    MLB
    Riverfront
    New Comiskey
    Camden Yards
    Shea (in august at least)

    I'm planning a baseball vacation next summer from Baltimore to Milwaukee so my list should grow, hopefully I might be able to squeeze in a game at RFK or Toyota park so I can add at least one soccer stadium to this list.

    The ugliest stadium in the world. It is too ordinary.

    Yokohama Stadium.
    Funny thing is that Brazil vs Germany was held in this stadium.
    World Cup which held in Japan (not Korea) was so crappy and rubbish.
    World Cup held in Korea was better than Japan IMO.
