Post subject:  Oldest Stadiums in the CFL

1. Tucson
Built: 1961
Stadium Type: Outdoor/Natural Grass
Capacity: 99.900
Stadium Condition: Excellent
Turf Condition: Very Good
Parking Condition: Excellent
Analysis: The most iconic stadium in the CFL.

2. Boston
Built: 1967
Stadium Type: Outdoor/Natural Grass
Capacity: 99.900
Stadium Condition: Excellent
Turf Condition: Very Good
Parking Condition: Average
Analysis: Another iconic stadium, but does not have the banners waving in the wind like Tuscon.

3. Atlantic City
Built: 1972
Stadium Type: Outdoor/Natural Grass
Capacity: 79.400
Stadium Condition: Poor
Turf Condition: Poor
Parking Condition: Average
Analysis: Dilapidated condition and needs a desperate upgrade.

Aside from Dean Gullberry: Speaking from a team that has to play there once a year, Brooklyn would love to see the stadium upgraded and stay in Atlantic City keeping an outdoor stadium like the other Yankee division stadiums. Brawler fans still joke that it is cheaper to take the 30 minute train ride to Atlantic City than seeing the game in Brooklyn (although they still don't, but it would be fun if they did...at least more attendance for the Phantoms).

4. Durham
Built: 1973
Stadium Type: Outdoor/Natural Grass
Capacity: 78.000
Stadium Condition: Excellent
Turf Condition: Very Good
Parking Condition: Good
Analysis: Another iconic stadium and does have their fair share of banners blowing in the wind.

5. Boise
Built: 1992
Stadium Type: Dome/Artificial turf
Capacity: 71.500
Stadium Condition: Excellent
Turf Condition: Very Good
Parking Condition: Average
Analysis: The first dome stadium built in the CFL that has not been replaced and still has artificial turf. Like Durham and Atlantic City they have room to grow. This was an era before the Retractable-Roof was all the buzz.

Honorable Mention:
Oregon: 1996
San Antonio:1997
New Orleans: 1998
Ohio: 1999

Most Iconic Stadiums would be fun but how do you judge that?

The Vampires are trying to build a new stadium but public support is low... :evil:

Durham has a new stadium already in the process of being built.
