^ and of America's "big urban 7" (NYC, LA, CHI, PHL, BOS, SF, & DC) only Chicago and Philly currently have NFL stadiums within the municipal borders of the central city. The other 5 are all in the burbs (and Philly's is in a pretty out-of-the-way corner of the city, in a giant and somewhat isolated sports stadium complex).
As I alluded to earlier in this thread, urbanism and giant rarely-used NFL stadiums don't really go hand in hand.
