It looks like a stadium would fit into the forum lands but the forum would have to be torn down along with a couple of other buildings. This is based on a stadium being about 500 ft by 600 ft (playing field of 65 yards x 150 yards, or 195 feet x 450 feet

Would there be enough parking in the forum area. I have thought of this area also. It has good highway access.
