Football stands?
Has exactly the same thought some time ago, not sure anyone could find anything on google though.

it would depend on whether you count multi tier stands as one stand
in which case the largest would probably be found at st james' park, the emirates or old trafford
actually, due to st james' lop sided nature, i've a feeling that the largest may be found there

The top of the Sir John Hall Stand at St. James' is apparently the highest point of any stadium in Europe.
Bold Seagull
strong and stable with me, or...
Old Trafford's North Stand (3 tiers) holds 26,000.

there's no way its higher than the back row at the nou camp surely?

That's what they said on the stadium tour! But the guide was prone to exaggeration.

Maybe that includes the elevation of the ground, Barca is probably more or less at sea level I guess, is Newcastle?
When I went to the champions league final at OT a few years back I'm pretty sure I was in the 4th tier.

I think that is exactly what he meant. The ground is one of the highest points in Newcastle.

i thought he meant from pitch level to the top of the stand
he said something about it's STEEPNESS that makes it a lot higher than it should be
however, are you sure it was europe rather than england? i really can't remember.......he bombarded us with a lot of facts that day
what i WILL say is that the top of st james' has been known to cause many panic attacks.......it's f***ing high up

Barca dropped their pitch to put more seating in.

I was fairly sure he said Europe, but I may still have been reeling from the revelation that Jackie Milburn could kick a ball HARDER than any man alive!

I thought the stat about St James' park was: The seats at the back of that stand in the corner, are the furthest from the centre spot.

There is DEFINITELY a list of them on wiki (well there was about a year ago).
I am sure I put the link on here too but can't find it in previous posts

Apparently the stands at Selhurst are the furthest away from decent football in Europe.
