Tracking the venues you've visited – Poster of the NFL Stadiums on a Map of the United States

NFL Opening Day 2015

 

The sun rises on another NFL season.  It’s the calm before the storm.  The off-season drama is over and now the games that count start tonight.  On the NFL Opening Weekend, every team is in it.  Every team has a chance.  Every team has 12 guaranteed wins.  Every fan has optimism that this is their year.  Some fans are right, and for other fans, there’s always next year.

That’s the excitement the NFL brings.  You don’t know until you play the games.  So let’s get this started.

Whether your planning a road trip to go see your favorite team, or going to see a game in your favorite city, make sure you have fun.  That’s why we’ve all waited 9 months.  For. NFL. Football.

VenRoo is proud to support road trips for all NFL teams.  You can decide where to go, or track where you’ve been with our map of all NFL stadiums.

Visit VenRoo.com and get your road trip planning off on the right foot.  And enjoy the season!

Cincinnati Stadium

We went to Cincinnati several years ago, which was one of the first stadiums we visited. Four of us drove from Illinois, one flew from California, and two others lived in Cincinnati. We were so excited to experience tailgating at the stadium, but the local guys wanted nothing to do with tailgating. So, they planned to hang out at the local Hooters on the other side of the river and take the shuttle boat (giant ferry) over right at game time.

The rest of us, non-locals, crammed into the car in search of the best tailgating spot. We were a little upset with ourselves as we got a late start and didn’t get downtown, until 10am. For a 1:00pm game that wasn’t leaving much time for quality tailgating. Well, to our surprise, we found a great spot, but nobody was there. This photo says it all. Lot Full. People didn’t start to show up until 11:00am and after. We made the best of it, and immediately put a Red “X” in our book for Cincinnati tailgating (or lack of). We will say, in a future post, a few years later we did find some quality tailgating and just realized we were on the wrong side of the stadium the first time. Rookie mistake.

Which football stadiums are shown on the poster

There are a lot of stadiums within the professional football and many have been replaced by newer ones over the years.  Which stadiums are shown on the VenRoo poster for professional football?  The current poster for 2010, displays the current stadiums, as of the 2010-2011 season.  New York is new for the year, Indianapolis was new in 2008 and others were replaced several years back.

The concept of VenRoo, is tracking where you’ve been, so we decided to include the current stadiums.  You can still show a date on the stadium even though you haven’t been to a newer one.  Unless you want to track the actual stadium, which is just fine too.  We may offer stickers, in the future, of all the older stadiums, if you want to see the image of those past stadiums.

Customizing your VenRoo poster

Tracking your visits

The venues on the VenRoo poster are inside a colorful ring, with a lighter shade on the bottom quarter of the ring.  You can use this lighter area to write anything you want about the venue.  Use it to write the date of the first time you visited, such as Sept 2005 or 9-24-2006.  Add the score of the game or the opponent played.  Be creative, add your on personal style.  Track the number of times you’ve been, wins or losses, or if it was a good or not so good venue.

The Tracks

Tracking the Venues you’ve visited.

What are the graphics below the tag line?  Those are the tracks of a kangaroo.  As the kangaroo hops from place to place, they drag their tail along the sand, causing the solid line between the foot prints.
