For the third year in a row, sports gambling blog Bookies.com has ranked Lambeau Field No. 1 for the best NFL stadium to visit based on pregame experience.
“Lambeau Field is a bucket list destination, more so than any other NFL stadium. It’s an oasis of modern football surrounded by old-school charm,” Bookies.com wrote when talking about the Packers and Lambeau’s ranking. “The only ding is the relative remoteness of Green Bay, roughly 100 miles north of the nearest major airport in Milwaukee.”
Rounding out the top five includes the home stadiums of the Pittsburgh Steelers, Dallas Cowboys, Atlanta Falcons, and the Kansas City Chiefs.
How did Bookies.com determine these rankings?
The list was made using an algorithm based on multiple factors when it comes to pregame festivities. Each category was ranked from 1 to 32:
Lambeau received a score of 30 for tailgating (No. 3), 17 for location, 31 for entertainment (No.2), and a 32 for family sentiment (No. 1). This resulted in 110 overall score, beating out Acrisure Stadium in Pittsburgh by one point.
