Is that Old Trafford?

bhlloy · 03-24-2010, 02:27 PM

Not Old Trafford

Abe Sargent · 03-24-2010, 02:32 PM

Reliant Stadium?

bhlloy · 03-24-2010, 02:35 PM

no, although I've never noticed the similarity before they do look very alike

Ronnie Dobbs2 · 03-24-2010, 02:38 PM

Millenium Stadium

bhlloy · 03-24-2010, 02:41 PM

Correct. Cardiff Castle was a pretty huge clue if you didn't recognize the stadium (but you would have had to recognize it was a castle first)

Ronnie Dobbs2 · 03-24-2010, 02:43 PM

gstelmack · 03-24-2010, 02:45 PM

I thought I recognized those giant towers that James Bond was clinging to so desperately...

Ronnie Dobbs2 · 03-24-2010, 03:16 PM

A stumper? Half hour without a guess...

Big Clue: Non-US

sooner333 · 03-24-2010, 03:27 PM

Is that a baseball stadium?

3ric · 03-24-2010, 03:28 PM

Is it in Japan?

Ronnie Dobbs2 · 03-24-2010, 03:28 PM

Yes and Yes.

DanGarion · 03-24-2010, 03:30 PM

That is the home of the Hiroshima Carp!

Abe Sargent · 03-24-2010, 03:31 PM

Hiroshima?

Abe Sargent · 03-24-2010, 03:31 PM

Got beat out. Good job DanG

Ronnie Dobbs2 · 03-24-2010, 03:32 PM

I'll give it to Dan, I was going for the Hiroshima Peace Memorial (located between the waters) but wanted to include the baseball stadium to help get you there.

3ric · 03-24-2010, 03:33 PM

Non-US and baseball, I thought it could only be Japan with that kind of city sprawl. But I didn't think of checking Hiroshima.

Abe Sargent · 03-24-2010, 03:34 PM

At first, I was checking ouyt olympics sites liek Sydney, Athens, Barcelona, etc. I missed the obvious

DanGarion · 03-24-2010, 03:49 PM

Easy...

Honestly I got lucky on the Hiroshima one, the moment it was answered it was Japan I did a quick search and I noticed the colors of the Hiroshima stands and guessed it.

Abe Sargent · 03-24-2010, 03:56 PM

Okay, here we are:

DanGarion · 03-24-2010, 03:58 PM

Lots of green.

DanGarion · 03-24-2010, 03:59 PM

Not Dubai!

flere-imsaho · 03-24-2010, 03:59 PM

Definitely not Dubai.

3ric · 03-24-2010, 04:01 PM

DanGarion · 03-24-2010, 04:39 PM

Holyrood Park.

DanGarion · 03-24-2010, 04:40 PM

But you are pointing at Edinburgh Castle.

3ric · 03-24-2010, 04:44 PM

Edinburgh or Arthur's Seat had also been correct answers. Dan's the man!

Mustang · 03-24-2010, 05:01 PM

I did not answer that because the name of the JPG was edinburghp.jpg
