Big enough. Great sight lines. Giant TVs, but not in the way. Wide concourses. Nice club. Nicer suites. Drop top roof. Lots of parking. Find something wrong with it.
It is a good stadium but not top 5 in the NFL. I have been to stadiums in Indy, Dallas, NOLA (obviously), new Meadowlands, ATL, Houston and Miami. Of those I would rank Houston only above Miami, ATL and NOLA. Overall in the NFL I would rank the top 5 as:
1. Dallas
2. Metlife
3. Indy
4. Arizona
5. SF
Houston would be 6th. Like I said it is a good stadium, but not great or state of the art and it is not a classic like Lambeau or the Superdome (and yes the Superdome is a classic and one of the all time great venues just look at the number of big events it has hosted).

The fact you need to say that means it isn't.
SF's new stadium is trash. I wouldn't put it in the top 10.

Parking would be good if anyone drove to the game. But everybody stays on the other side of town and if you drink all day and walk around the only way to get to the game is Uber (which will cost a fortune) or the trolly. All that's easy. Leaving the game is a nightmare because the entire stadium is trying to get on the trolly at once. It would have taken like 3 hours to wait for it. So we bit the bullet and gave uber $200 for a 15-20 min drive but it still took about an hour to get an uber car out to us. I would be sure to make arrangements for after the game man.

Ok sure. Tell me another venue that has as impressive a resume.

And I guess the fact that A&M fans keep saying that Kyle Field is the new standard also means that it isn't? Am I doing this right?

You must not goto many Texans games. 85% of people drive or more. Texans have one of, if not, the best tailgate scenes for the NFL. You have the option of Uber, a train, or driving (right on a major highway). That's a plus, not a con. Bob McNair/Houston built a hell of a stadium.

Nobody got my American Standard™ toilet joke.
I also swung and missed on the "He's Comming" thread with my Dexy's Midnight Runners "Cum On Eileen" joke.
I'm off this week.

Will Sumlin still buy a ticket for Chief after the year y'all are looking at? With no NFL corners the Chavis show will feature more nonconsensual buttsex than even College Station can embrace.

That has literally no input on what i said. Im trying to give you a tip. I imagine a Texans game to be very different flow than a out of towner neutral site game. Most of the people going to the game stay in the same part of town and the traveling fans arent going to be tailgating outside of the stadium and for the Wisky game the parking lot was entirely empty
