VENIRA — City Stadium is finally ready for primetime, according to general contractor Iskāndarai Āmānandrāla Matèliar.
The roofed stadium, which seats 65,000 for amateur football and 59,000 for professional — as well as 53,000 for baseball, albeit with rather strange dimensions — was originally slated to open three months ago in time for Prince Lornar High's inaugural game, but funding problems and bad concrete have pushed back the opening to coincide with Sunday's opener in the Fédération Intermicronationale du Gridiron Test Series between Safiria and Mercury.

Re: FIG Test Series superthread
Telegraph Hill Stadium is the home ground of the Queen Hauna Technical School in Miše. Originally built in 2430, it seats 12,000 people, and was rebuilt to original specifications in 2519.
The school is nicknamed "The Lady on the Hill" because it sits on a mountainside at the foot of the Israfai Mountains. It overlooks central Miše and the surrounding country. The school actually wraps around the stadium and semicircular steps lead from the field directly to the main entrance of the school. Combined, they take up four city blocks.

Allen Eagle Stadium in Reira is one of the largest high school sporting facilities in the Empire. Built in 2526 at a cost of £44 million, it seats 18,000 for Allen Secondary School football games, and also contains facilities for the school's wrestling and volleyball teams.

You don't have any backups and the numbers are wrong
Re: FIG Test Series superthread
I'm not required to have backups, and I don't see any eligible receivers wearing 50-79
