Inside SoFi Stadium with the field and the video board

Fields

Where the oval is played

The stadium changes the game: grass or synthetics, a closed roof, December cold in Green Bay. A kicker at Lambeau is not a kicker in Atlanta. Illustration, not an official photograph.

The SoFi Stadium field seen from the stands — **SoFi Stadium** Inglewood, California. Rams and Chargers. Super Bowl, and a roof that is not a roof: the Los Angeles weather still gets in.

The outside of AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas — **AT&T Stadium** Arlington, Texas. Cowboys. The video board takes up more conversation than the left tackle, and that is saying something.

The facade of Lambeau Field, home of the Green Bay Packers — **Lambeau Field** Green Bay, Wisconsin. Packers. January cold is not folklore. It changes the kicker and the ball.

An aerial view of Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City — **Arrowhead Stadium** Kansas City, Missouri. Chiefs. The crowd noise is a fact, not a metaphor. False starts are real.

The black exterior of Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas — **Allegiant Stadium** Las Vegas, Nevada. Raiders. Closed, dark, natural grass that gets swapped the way you swap a tarp.

Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta with its distinctive roof — **Mercedes-Benz Stadium** Atlanta, Georgia. Falcons. A retractable roof and a halo that visitors remember more than the score.

An aerial view of MetLife Stadium in New Jersey — **MetLife Stadium** East Rutherford, New Jersey. Giants and Jets. Wind, two tenants and none of the romance of a perfect lawn.

Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara before a Super Bowl — **Levi's Stadium** Santa Clara, California. 49ers. Site of Super Bowl 50. An afternoon kickoff here is midday in Spain; a night kickoff is the small hours.

The columns and exterior of Soldier Field in Chicago — **Soldier Field** Chicago, Illinois. Bears. The oldest stadium in the league. The lake wind does not ask the kicker for permission.

Acrisure Stadium in Pittsburgh beside the bridges — **Acrisure Stadium** Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Steelers. Formerly Heinz Field. The same grass, the same grey December, a different name on the facade.

Inside Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens — **Hard Rock Stadium** Miami Gardens, Florida. Dolphins. A roof and humid weather. Illustration, not an official photograph.

SoFi Stadium at dusk beside the lake — **SoFi at dusk** The same building, a different hour. A Sunday Night kickoff on the West Coast lands in the small hours in Spain.
