Lincoln Financial Field Among NFL'S Best Stadiums: ESPN

PHILADELPHIA — Although it's unlikely that any fans will be allowed in this season, Lincoln Financial Field was rated the seventh-best NFL stadium by ESPN. The Linc was ranked above Raymond James Stadium in Tampa Bay, Empower Field at Mile High in Denver, and Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis.

The rankings were based on a stadium's atmosphere, features, traditions, tailgating, location, cost and history.

"Attending an Eagles game at the Linc is an intense experience that starts with one of the best tailgating scenes in the NFL. After the pregame party (where cheesesteaks and hoagies are in great abundance), the game experience is quite spirited, too," ESPN wrote in its analysis. "Between frequent playing of 'Rocky' music and the singing of 'Fly Eagles, Fly' after every touchdown, there's a lot to cheer about. Eagles fans are known for their passion and dedication, so if you're big into making noise — especially booing anything and everything — you'll have fun."

ESPN did note some flaws, however.

"The Eagles are the third-most expensive NFL experience, in large part due to the success they've had the past two decades," according to the outlet. "The domestic beer is the most expensive in the league, as it costs almost $10 for a 12-ounce brew. The craziness of the Philly faithful can be overwhelming to some, and the stadium is separated from the sights of downtown Philadelphia, though you can take a train from there."
