SPORTS TRIVIA \ QUOTES
ESPN selects what it considers to be the 100 most important sports venues in America
.
Quote from the ESPN article:
.
Rather, this is a list of America's 100 most important sports venues.
.
And by that I mean the venues that have had a profound influence on the way American sports are played or have enjoyed multiple historic moments or, better yet, have had both.
.
The criteria are a little open to interpretation, but one of the basics is that the venue must still be physically in existence (no Shibe Park or Ebbets Field).
.
And preferably (but not necessarily), it still should be in use by someone, if not the team with which it is most associated.
.
Oh, and another thing -- as you'll see, the venues need not be actual arenas of competition.
.
In short, these are 100 venues that best exemplify Winston Churchill's quote regarding the bombed House of Commons:
.
"We shape our buildings. And afterwards, our buildings shape us."
