Where On Earth? Sports Ground

He He, Nope, not quite and no.

1, it's not in Europe further west, should be the easiest out of the three. It's named after a club I've always wanted to join. (all will become clear)

2, It's not for any olympic games. It's been open 4 years! (shows how up to date GE is). It's held international friendlies in football (soccer) hosting teams like Brazil, England, Argentina and New Zealand

3, This is a National stadium not in Africa or Oceania somewhere colder.

hope these help

Is the last one Laugardalsvöllur Stadium in Ice Land?

[miniwai]

Yep it sure is... D'oh and I thought that was the hardest. Good lad.

[aussiestyle1983]

Its the others that are difficult. I haven't even begin to look for the middle one, its that first stadium that is annoying me!

[miniwai]

You'll kick yourself when you find it! The clue is a giveaway... if you can relate the two things!!!

[aussiestyle1983]

The cloest looking thing I can find that is similar to the first one is the Seattle Seahawks stadium in USA......................

[miniwai]

Nope, from Washington go South-West. It opened in 2001 replacing the old stadium of similar name!

[aussiestyle1983]

If I go south-west from washington state I am heading out over the pacific ocean, Is that where I should be looking?

[miniwai]

Sorry South- East, my mistake not slept for 35 hours! hitting thr sack now

INVESCO Field at Mile High. Denver Broncos?

The pic you posted really tricked me because of the colour of the seats and it also looked like it was a football/ soccer set up, not an NFL style set up. The lines on the grass had me thinking soccer! soccer!

[miniwai]

Spot on, even with misleading directions! can't make it to easy though

[aussiestyle1983]

Stade de Genève, in Geneva Switzerland? For the un-completed stadium in the pic?

[miniwai]

yep, well done. Guess they weren't that hard after all. Your go.

Nothing really... Mile high stadium - mile high club, though it was funny at the time (few shigha fueled humor)

[aussiestyle1983]

Here are my next two..................

[miniwai]

The second one is Salt Lake Stadium in Kolkota (calcutta)

[aussiestyle1983]

Well done, and for the first....................?

[aussiestyle1983]

let me know if a hint is required

[aussiestyle1983]

Ok, i'm back and i'll give a hint to the first pic..........

Swimming is a popular sport in this country, and not by choice..................
