The Arizona Cardinals play all of their home games at Sun Devil Stadium. The stadium is the only stadium in the National Football League that is located directly on a college campus ( Arizona State University). The Cardinals share the field with the Arizona State Sun Devils’ football team that plays in the Pac-10 conference in the NCAA. Sun Devil Stadium is famous for their bleacher seating that covers almost the entire stadium and their lack of shade for the fans. It has been known to get as hot as 120 degrees in the stands and even hotter on the field. These were some of the main reasons that the Cardinals organization and Tourism and Sports Authority are building a new stadium. As of now the only name the stadium has is New Arizona Cardinals Stadium. The most interesting part about the stadium, other than that it will have a retractable roof, is that the field will is mobile and will be moved outside during the week to get it more sunlight. The New stadium will seat 73,000 and hopes to take on events like the Super Bowl and the Tostito’s Fiesta Bowl which houses the NCAA Football National Championship every couple of years.
