Stadium Reviews

Globe Life Field is home to Major League Baseball’s American League Texas Rangers – the Rangers organization began in 1972 when the Washington Senators relocated to Arlington, Texas. Globe Life Field is a retractable roof stadium that opened in 2020 with a seating capacity of just over 40,000.

Just in time for the impending 2026-27 season, the Houston Texans will play their home games at a place with a very familiar name. The Harris County Sports & Convention Corporation recently approved changing the name back to Reliant Stadium, and the area around the venue back to Reliant Park.

The Texas Christian University baseball team is a member of the Big 12 Conference. The baseball team plays their home games at Charlie and Marie Lupton Baseball Stadium at Williams-Reilly Field located on the TCU campus in Fort Worth, Texas.

On April 8, the Harris County-Houston Sports Authority approved a $180 million renovation to Toyota Center. Located in downtown Space City, Toyota Center is home to the NBA’s Houston Rockets, and will be the home of the returning Houston Comets of the WNBA in time for the 2027-28 season.

Toyota Center is the best arena of the three NBA squads in Texas. It still looks brand new, it has a ton of things outside of the game for fans to take in, the food options are great, and the location really can’t be beat.

Everything is bigger in Texas, and that includes the crowds. During fan walks on the grid for races at Circuit of the Americas, it is wall-to-wall fans hobnobbing with drivers, teams, and the cars they pilot on track.

In 2025, UTSA made their deepest postseason run ever by reaching the Super Regionals of the College World Series.

The original domed structure at Moody Coliseum created a multi-purpose seating bowl that surrounds the floor in a circular style. This ensures that all the padded, folding seats face the court, creating quality sightlines for all fans.

Moody Coliseum has all the modern accessories that fans enjoy, but what really makes Moody Coliseum special is the intimate feel of its basketball gymnasium.

I’ve been coming to see the Spurs at Frost Bank Center since day one. What they have always done and still do well is make the games feel like big events. This is not always easy to do during the long NBA season.

The Texas Stars have built a die-hard fan base in and around Austin, and regularly see some of the largest crowds in the AHL. H-E-B Center has proven to be the perfect venue for them, as well.

The Lockheed Martin Armed Forces Bowl delivers on every level since its original game in 2001; the bowl is solely a tribute to the armed forces.

The National Alliance of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) was founded in 1940, in part as an alternative to the NCAA and focusing on smaller schools (many of which are private and/or faith-based institutions). Since 1956, the NAIA has held playoffs and a National Championship game for their participating football schools.

The University of Texas has recently announced plans to construct a new multipurpose public arena that will ultimately become the home of the Longhorns four-time National Championship women’s volleyball program.

As if to cement the stereotype of everything being bigger in Texas, Circuit of the Americas (often called COTA for short) in Austin provides no better example of this.

Abilene Christian has averaged well above 9000 fans per game since Anthony Field opened in 2017. This has created a home field advantage for the Wildcats, which has led to some exciting games and big upsets in the past few years.

Once inside the facility, the history of the stadium shines through, and that’s its selling point.
