NFL fans are loving the video rendering of the new Cleveland Browns stadium that’s slated to open in 2029.
The Browns currently play at Huntington Bank Field between Lake Erie and the city’s North Coast Harbor district. Their new venue, that will retain the Huntington Bank Field name, will be a domed stadium in Brook Park with a capacity of around 70,000.
Cleveland has played at its current venue since the franchise was reactivated in 1999. Before that, the franchise played at Cleveland Stadium from 1946 to 1995 before getting fully demolished in 1997.
On Tuesday, the Cleveland Browns shared a new video rendering of their future stadium in Brook Park:
And for many football fans, the Browns’ new stadium was love at first site:
“Mind boggling anyone would be against this,” said one fan.
“Woww,” wrote another.
“2029 can’t get here soon enough,” a fan wrote.
“Shedeur will win ALOT of games there,” said another.
“Yes. Please,” one fan commented.
“BOSS,” another user said.
Even though it’s only 26 years old, Huntington Bank Field is tied with Nissan Stadium (Tennessee Titans) for the 12th-oldest active NFL stadium. But the Titans, Chicago Bears (at Soldier Field since 1924) and Buffalo Bills (in Highmark Stadium since 1973) are in the process of getting new stadiums built.
The Kansas City Chiefs (Arrowhead Stadium since 1972) and Washington Commanders (Northwest Stadium since 1997) are also working extensively to secure deals on new stadiums.
Cleveland Browns Fans Deserve A Winner More Than A New Stadium
As nice as the Cleveland Browns new stadium will be, the honeymoon phase will end quickly if the fans aren’t enjoying a winning football team by then.
The Oakland Raiders relocated to Las Vegas in 2020 and moved into a stunning new venue, Allegiant Stadium. But Raiders fans have had little to celebrate since the relocation, with the constant losing taking away some of the joy of the gameday experience.
For Browns fans, the new stadium won’t mean a whole lot if their team continues to be near the bottom of the standings. With only three playoff appearances and a single postseason win in the 21st century, the Browns need to repay their fans with a winning club once and for all.
