DCA Accepting Bids For 2014, 2015 World Championships


Recommended Posts

Since Red Bull Stadium in Harrison was mentioned, how about PPL Park in Chester PA (just outside of Philly)?

No upper deck, but a nice wrap-around stadium that should have pretty good acoustics.

And if that won't work, that new 18,000 seat, $60 million behemoth of a high school stadium down in Allen TX, just outside of Dallas, would certainly work :tongue:

Nothing wrong with real grass if it's well-kept. I'd expect that since it's an MLS venue, the carpet would be nothing short of impeccable.

Another great option might be Crew Stadium in Columubus OH. One of the best stadiums I've ever performed at hands down, great facilities, parking and concessions, a major urban environment, and very well-situated to be conveniently accessible to both east coast corps and midwest corps (and west coast corps won't have quite as far to travel).

actually for a championship event, especially during hurricane season, you almost have to have artifical turf and a ###### good drainage system. No way with the rain we had last Saturday or in 06 real turfwould have worked.

The problem with that stadium is not necessarily the stadium, but what Jeff alluded to:

Beautiful Downtown Chester. :spitting:

That area is a horror show.

THAT would be cool!!! College town... great part of the country... and so forth.
