I’ve been to Yankee Stadium and Fenway Park. To Soldier Field. To the Air Canada Centre in Toronto – the homes of some of the most storied North American sports teams. Although the league schedule for Spain’s top soccer league didn’t line up for me getting to see Real Madrid play, I did make sure to visit their historic ground, the Estadio Santiago Bernabéu.
Real Madrid offers a truly remarkable tour of their stadium. You buy a ticket, walk inside, then get to guide yourself through the tour with no one shuffling you along quicker than you want. Stop one on the tour is way up in the cheap seats for a panoramic view, or as I would call it, the view that my limited funds would likely procure if I bought a ticket. Wow.
