The architects and engineers who designed Soldier Field in 1919 would undoubtedly be thrilled to learn that their stadium is still in use in 2005. Whether they would recognize the place is another question entirely.
The Chicago Bears’ home field received a massive overhaul starting in 2002. The result of that remodeling project is a venue unlike any other in the National Football League. The re-imagined Soldier Field still retains much of its old charm. The distinctive columns remain, a connection to the more conservative architecture of Chicago’s past. But within its familiar façade sits a streamlined bowl that reminds visitors this is the 21st century. The innovative asymmetrical design puts ticket holders right on top of the action and within easy reach of world-class amenities. After purchasing your Soldier Field tickets - from Gotickets, of course - you could spend game day studying how a new generation of architects managed to pull off such an artful juxtaposition of state-of-the-art modernism and classical refinement.
Or you could just watch the Bears. Chicago has a storied past in Soldier Field, dating back to the Monsters of the Midway and Dick Butkus. Some of the most memorable games in NFL history have been played there, such as the infamous “Fog Bowl” in 1988 in which a heavy mist drifted in off Lake Michigan at halftime of a playoff game between Chicago and Philadelphia. The Bears went on to win, 20-12.
The 2005 team is regarded as one of the NFL’s up-and-comers. Chicago should field a terrific defense with star linebacker Brian Urlacher returning from an injury-plagued 2004 season. The offense figures to be improved as the Bears signed talented free agent Muhsin Muhammad to bolster a lackluster receiving corps. The Bears’ 2005 schedule includes a number of attractive home games, including visits from Minnesota (Oct. 16), Baltimore (Oct. 23), [Green Bay] http://www.gotickets.com/sports/nfl/nfc/greenbaypackers.php (Dec. 4) and Atlanta (Dec. 18). Get your Bears tickets from Gotickets.
