Stadium #14 - Qwest Field, Seattle Seahawks
On my way to Fairbanks, Alaska I arranged for an extended layover in Seattle as there happened to be a home game at the mighty Qwest Field.So after I landed in Seattle, it was straight to the rental counter and on my way to watch the Seattle Seahawks take on the St. Louis Rams.Qwest Field is every bit as impressive as advertised.A modern facility with a fantastic view of the Seattle Skyline and all the food (in variety and quantity) that any fan could ask for.Qwest Field stadium concessions are easily the best in the league.In addition to the standard dogs, brats, and burgers, fans can find Thai and Chinese food, bread bowls of clam chowder or chili, deep-fried fish and chip dinners, and the local favorite, garlic fries (guaranteed to keep loved ones at bay).Fans of the Seattle Seahawks rank among the loudest in the league and Qwest Field’s specifically designed acoustics aide in directing crowd noise as well.By the end of the day, with a plane to catch, I found my experience in Seattle at Qwest Field to be brief but enlightening.

Qwest field actually wasn't designed to project noise. It was designed to protect fans from the elements and as a result, created the acoustics
