Due to the promotion and relegation system in place in European leagues, the number of stadiums one has visited can vary. It turns out this season I've been to one La Liga stadium (Montjuic Olympic Stadium in Barcelona, temporary home of FC Barcelona while Camp Nou is rebuilt; when I visited it was still the home of Espanyol), and there were two seasons El Alcoraz in Huesca was there.

I've also been to an ACB (Spanish top tier basketball league) arena, Pabellón Príncipe Felipe in Zaragoza (kinda dated since Felipe has been king for almost a decade now), watching a... handball match.
Supporter of the construction of several running gags, including I-366 with a speed limit of 85 mph (137 km/h) and the Hypotenuse.

Please note that I may mention "invalid" FM channels, i.e. ending in an even number or down to 87.5. These are valid in Europe.

I have two additions to my list so far this NHL season—I went to a Seattle Kraken game at Climate Pledge Arena when I was out there for work in November (I flew out a day early partly to get the chance to go to the game) and I went to a Florida Panthers game at whatever their arena is called this year when we were down there visiting relatives in January. The Seattle arena is a very interesting structure and the two videoboards made for an interesting design concept. The concourses were kind of cramped, which reflects the overall age of the building despite the heavy renovations. The Panthers' arena had nice wide concourses and good sight lines but could use an updated scoreboard.
"You know, you never have a guaranteed spot until you have a spot guaranteed."
—Olaf Kolzig, as quoted in the Washington Times on March 28, 2003,
commenting on the Capitals clinching a playoff spot.

"That sounded stupid, didn't it?"
—Kolzig, to the same reporter a few seconds later.
