It's the offseason, but I thought this was really interesting. Maybe I missed it before?

Ya but how much are beers

Considering they're $16 at Arrowhead, I'll guess $30.

Soccer sucks

That stadium is pretty epic though

The stadium is not new though. The Santiago Bernabeu is old AF - it was built in 1947. They just finished a 5 year renovation project last fall.

Must be nice

Jackson County would never vote for this

Seems like a TON of expense focused on bringing the field under ground to keep it maintained.

I'd guess they have lots of concerts and other things going on all the time at the stadium besides soccer?

Is it true the seats come with dildos to sit on since soccer is gay?

Rap concerts?

LMAO

**** Soccer!

Is there a fake Madrid? Or?

That's kinda my thought...

I mean it's cool but...for what purpose? Is it really just so you can spend less on labor moving/covering the field in the case of another event?

Because that had to cost a fortune. Putting that into a new build would be pretty expensive but retrofitting that into an existing stadium with a 75 year old infrastructure/foundation had to be STAGGERING.

Pretty impressive. Looks like a nightmare to maintain.
