One of the most fun aspects of sports is the spectacle of it all, especially for large international gatherings and big league championship events. The Olympics, FIFA World Cup and Super Bowl wouldn’t be major events without large stadiums able to safely seat up to 100,000 audience members while providing for basic needs like water, food, restrooms and protection from the elements. These ten sports stadiums may not be the biggest, but they’re the most advanced and expensive in the world of sports.

Investing In Home Field Advantage
Home field advantage is a well documented phenomenon that makes it less likely for visiting teams to win. Hostile environments can be extremely difficult to perform in, especially when athletes aren’t familiar with the electricity and the pressure generated during the most watched sporting events in the world.
When placing a wager on any sporting event, you should always check out how well the opposing team plays when away from home. Poor road squads may experience additional difficulty playing well when exposed to massive crowds dedicated to disrupting invading visitors. This phenomenon also works in reverse, with home crowds turning on their own teams in disappointment. Germany destroying Brazil in Belo Horizonte during the 2014 FIFA World Cup is a superb recent example of the home crowd making it tougher for their team to win.
