It may well have changed since I first heard the question. Lambeau was built in 1957 and the Bears played in Wrigley for 50 year so it may have been surpassed but you also have to factor in the Chicago Cardinal football team playing there as well. (Now the Arizona cardinals). They played there from 1931-1938 plus several championship games were held at Wrigley. Lambeau will certainly surpass it if it has not already. The question was just about pro football games in a stadium and not about which teams. It may well be in the early days Chicago hosted a lot of games for lack of stadiums by other clubs plus you have playoff games etc.

According to this site http://www.footballgeography.com/list-of-every-nfl-game-location-since-the-leagues-founding-in-1920/ the LA Coliseum has hosted 5 more games than Wrigley Field. Scroll down for the listing by stadium.

Back to music, here's a jazz recommendation: Gentle Ben, Ben Webster.

Ummmmm. I happen to like that Proclaimers song. :thumbsup:



I did at the time as well lol.

I cannot pull up that site right now but I believe you and since Wrigley has not been used for NFL games since 1970, it was bound to be broken at some point. The Wrigley site needs to be updated then.

I am from downstate Illinois closer to where the Bears started out before moving to Chicago.

How can one not be a Cubs fan? Are you kidding? lol

And that brings about one of the best sports trivia questions
I know. Which stadium, still in existence, has held more pro football games than any other in the country. Joe must be busy, the answer is Wrigley Field, the Bears played there prior to moving to Soldier Field.

By the way, Cubs player, Kyle Schwarber played for Indiana University, a local favorite.

Grew up on the North Shore. Die hard Cub fan. Just saw the post. Saw the Bears and Packers at Wrigley eons back. Hit Jim Taylor on the helmet with a snowball from the 5th row. He never flinched.
