We've gotten way off topic, guys, but here's some more stadia info:
The largest stadium in the USA is, I believe, Michigan University's, which holds about 110,000.
Penn State (just 30 miles up the road from me) has just expanded its stadium capacity to around 106,000.
The world's largest stadium, would you believe, is in North Korea! (cap. 150,000). <a href="http://www.worldstadiums.com/stadium_pictures/asia/north_korea/may_day.shtml" target="_blank"> Click Here</a>, its a real beauty!
The world record attendance was 199,500 for the 1950 World Cup final in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, although the 1923 FA Cup final at Wembley, England was gatecrashed, resulting in an estimated crowd of well over 200,000.
The biggest official attendence in the UK was 149,000 at the 1937 Scotland v England game in Glasgow.
The best stadium I've been to is the <a href="http://www.worldstadiums.com/stadium_pictures/europe/united_kingdom/wales/cardiff_millennium.shtml" target="_blank"> Millennium Stadium</a> in Cardiff, Wales, which holds a mere 72,500.
