Three Best Stadiums: CenturyLink Field

3. CenturyLink Field: The third best stadium in the NFL is awarded to CenturyLink Field, home of the Seattle Seahawks. This field has been named the loudest arena in football due to it's architectural structure, which makes the Seahawks a dangerous opponent to pay against on the road. Built in 2002, CenturyLink Field has been used not only for pro football, but for college games and MLS play as well. Initially, the Seahawks home building was simply named "Seahawks Stadium", then to "Qwest Field", and finally, in 2012, "CenturyLink Field." The field itself is just like any other pro field, but it is the location and seating that separates CenturyLink from the average NFL stadium. The upper tier is a unique part of this building, as it shades fans in the higher deck from the sun. Besides a triangular seating arrangement as well as a huge television in the end zone, empty space clearly reveals the Seattle skyline off in the distance. When taking into the account the 12 Man, the building's design, and a beautiful view of downtown Seattle, it is no surprise CenturyLink Field shows up on our list.
