In Short – With the Vet put to rest at the close of the Eagles' 2003 season, Lincoln is now home to stadium shows, football games and soccer matches. The high cost of games, seat licenses and concessions have irked local sports loyalists, but improved seating, better flow between levels and a football-centric design make attending games feel less like watching a match in a giant concrete bathtub with 60,000 neighbors. Players will like it for the real live grass.

The Linc is new Home for Eagles
by utah
Lincoln Financial Field is the new home to the Eagles. I toured the Stadium during the public open house a few weeks ago. the sightlines are awesome and the fans are closer to the Field then ever. However a key element will be whether or not the Linc will be as imposing for visiting teams as the Vet once was. the Vet was known around the league for having the worst turf and the worst fans, esp the 700 level. That question remains unanswered. The # of luxury suites in the Linc does bother me b/c that means there is less room for the real Eagles fans, the 700 level fans who truly define homefield advantage. if everything works out Eagles could win Super Bowl this year.
- Pros: sightlines, grass field
- Cons: luxury suites, homefiled advantage?

Know Before You Go:
Be prepared to pay. Even with massive state and local handouts, Eagles tickets are expensive, outside food is banned and parking prices have gone up, too.
