List Of American Football Stadiums By Capacity
The following is an incomplete list of current American football stadiums. They are ordered by their seating capacity, that is the maximum number of spectators that the stadium can accommodate. The list contains the home stadiums of all 32 professional teams playing in the NFL as well as the largest stadiums used by college football teams in the NCAA. The United States is unique in that eighteen of its twenty largest stadiums are home to a college team, not a professional one. The largest professional team stadium falls at number 15 on the list. Not included are several large stadiums used by teams in the now-defunct NFL Europa, as these were all built for and used mainly for association football, or the Rogers Centre, which is located in Canada (although it does host occasional American football games). Currently all football stadiums with a capacity of 30,000 or more are included.

—Alexis de Tocqueville (1805–1859)
“People stress the violence. That’s the smallest part of it. Football is brutal only from a distance. In the middle of it there’s a calm, a tranquility. The players accept pain. There’s a sense of order even at the end of a running play with bodies stewn everywhere. When the systems interlock, there’s a satisfaction to the game that can’t be duplicated. There’s a harmony.”
—Don Delillo (b. 1926)
“The first half of it consists of the capacity to enjoy without the chance; the last half consists of the chance without the capacity.”
