点评:I've been coming to America First Field (formerly Rio Tinto Stadium, affectionately known as "The RioT") for Real Salt Lake MLS games for over six years now, and it's always a fun experience.
The stadium has a great soccer vibe, and the unpadded plastic seats are comfortable enough to enjoy the game for a few hours. There are plenty of snack and drink options, though be prepared for the typical stadium prices that are on the high side.
If you're flexible, waiting for last-minute seats can sometimes score you a bargain, which is always nice.
The stadium does have some accessibility challenges for ADA and wheelchair users. There's only one place to store mobility scooters, so if your seats are on the opposite side of the stadium, it can be quite a trek. It definitely helps to have someone with you. I had to ride and drop my mom's scooter when the two of us went to a Real Salt Lake game last summer, which was a bit cumbersome but still manageable with planning.
The stadium is well laid out and there isn't a truly terribly seat in the whole venue. It's designed perfectly so it's easy in and easy out, and I have zero complaints about the game day experience over the years. The team store is terrific as well, with tons of great merchandise if you need to get outfitted as a fan.
While the name is now pretty generic and boring, America First Field is a solid spot for MLS soccer. It captures that local soccer energy perfectly, and I always have a great time cheering on Real Salt Lake despite the minor accessibility hurdles and pricey concessions.
翻译:六年来,我一直来美国第一球场(原名力拓球场,昵称“The RioT”)观看皇家盐湖城队的MLS比赛,每次都是一次愉快的体验。
球场的足球氛围非常棒,虽然没有软垫,但塑料座椅足够舒适,可以让你舒舒服服地看上几个小时。球场内有很多小吃和饮料可供选择,不过要做好心理准备,球场的物价通常都比较高。
如果你时间比较灵活,可以考虑等到最后一刻再买票,有时能淘到便宜货,这当然很不错。
不过,球场对于使用ADA(美国残疾人法案)或轮椅的球迷来说存在一些无障碍设施方面的不足。球场只有一个地方可以存放电动代步车,所以如果你的座位在球场的另一侧,走到座位可能会比较远。最好有人陪同。去年夏天,我和我妈妈一起去看皇家盐湖城队的比赛时,我不得不骑着她的电动代步车,然后把车停在球场另一侧,虽然有点麻烦,但只要提前做好计划,还是可以应付的。
球场布局合理,整个场馆里没有一个座位特别糟糕。它的设计堪称完美,进出都很方便,多年来我对比赛日的体验没有任何不满。球队商店也很棒,里面有琳琅满目的商品,如果你想置办球迷装备,这里绝对是理想之选。
虽然现在球场的名字有点普通,甚至有些乏味,但美国第一球场(America First Field)仍然是观看美国职业足球大联盟(MLS)比赛的绝佳场所。它完美地展现了当地的足球氛围,尽管存在一些小小的无障碍设施不足和略显昂贵的餐饮价格,但我每次来这里为皇家盐湖城队加油助威都感到非常开心。
