First-Hand Experience: I wasn't treated very well here. The Rugby game was thrilling, not because of the action, I don't like Rugby, but because of the intense, packed, passionate crowd watching their home team of Scotland. What. A Thrill. Just need to get to Hampden for a Scotland game now. Also, the employees of the stadium were not particularly friendly at all. So this is really a 5-star stadium, and the only reason it receives a deduction is (1) the stewards were very unfriendly to me, and (2) it doesn't have a footy team playing here. It's too good of a stadium not to. I'm really not into rugby, and when a facility like this doesn't have a team, it's just a shame. Hearts or a new team should play here, I would think. Or Scotland should play some games here. They did watch Hearts play a friendly here against Barcelona to a sell out 58k crowd, but come on, what about on the regular? Anyway, it's one of the crown jewels of Scotland and is truly impressive and modern with 67k people able to get in here, and it looks a lot like the San Siro.

For any Doctor Who actor with the exception of ... because really, no one liked him very much. And 3. The All Blacks. Yup. I'm a secret rugby junkie. And by secret, I mean not at all, because I will bring it up at every possible occasion. But when I found out the All Blacks were playing Scotland a mere few weeks after I landed in Edina? Well Edinburgh, you're officially stuck with me you beautiful, serendipitous devil. Here's what I learned at Murrayfield Stadium: 1. The Scottish rugby team is much better than I was expecting. Calm down. This doesn't mean I didn't love them from the beginning - i'm from Canada, have you SEEN our team? And I loved THEM. So shush - I like an underdog. What I mean is that Scotland held it's own against the All Blacks when I was expecting them to be crushed. Call me a new Scottish superfan... 2. Scotland is cold. Bring a sweater. 3. The line ups for the ladies toilets are as bad in Scotland as in Canada and you should definitely not wait until the last possible moment or you're going to be stuck uncomfortably dancing in line. 4. The food selection is surprisingly good for a stadium. Tip of the hat to the food trucks. 5. As is the beer. Though it will come in strange plastic sippy cup bottles that will make you feel like a teenager. 6. Bagpipes are always delightful. 7. Scottish fans are perhaps the nicest people in the world and will stick to the bitter end to applaud their team instead of ducking out in the last ten minutes to try and beat rush hour. It's nice. All in all, this was one of the most pleasant stadium visits to date. It's exceptionally busy and the line ups for everything are super long - but it's stadium. What did you expect? However, the decent beverage selection and promise of BBQ'ed meats, take this place up a notch. I look forward to many a fangirl moment here to come.

But that's beside the point. First-Hand Experience: More info about my personal experience at this stadium - I visited this place when I was a kid. I always liked Falkirk for some reason. It didn't really impress me. It was run down and needed a revamp. As it happened, it got bulldozed a few years later, just after I had visited a second time (and had the chance to watch a game here, in 2000). It was one of the most run-down stadiums I was in, but the fans still managed to create a good atmosphere and they loved their little home... and the new one has lots of flaws... so I'll give this old one a solid 3 for the memories. It may not seem like it belongs on Yelp, but every Falkirk fan and Scottish Footy fan will be glad to see this old stadium listed here. It was open for 118 years, after all. And demolished just a few short years ago. So when I was doing my first tour of Scotland in 2011, I also hit up every single stadium in the country. My obsession with footy (soccer to Americans) is the reason. Every stadium review - like all my reviews - are based on first-hand personal experience, usually from multiple visits. As recently as Fall 2014, when I was "stuck" in UK for 3 months, I went to most of them yet again while travelling. I have pictures of me at many of them, which I will post later. Also, when back in Scotland I plan to take more pix, and add more stadia! So watch this space! *** return to regular review *** Falkirk's stadium cost them many promotions because it was so bad, so inevitably they moved out of it and it was destroyed. Opened in 1885, then closed and demolished in 2003. The Hope Street end had home and away fans separated by a medieval metal cage (even though there wasn't much metal caging in those days). Morrisons, the supermarket chain, bought the land and turned it into a car park. The memories of the fans have now been turned to asphalt. There is one turnstile remaining outside the supermarket as a memory. Which is a nice touch by Morrisons.

First-Hand Experience: More info about my personal experience at this stadium - I didn't get to see a game at this stadium, but I did visit it on several occasions, and went inside once (don't tell the groundsman). I had no idea it'd be knocked down just 3 years after I was in there. A real shame. It was a nice little stadium which was cosy and I preferred it to the new one, but the new one has better facilities and room for expansion. I guess the fact that all of the corners were open and the place was falling apart, is why they knocked it down. I have red-eye in the picture of me here and it's blurry, but like the other stadia, at some point I'll scan them all and upload them. Especially in this case since I can't go back and take more... since it no longer exists :( So when I was doing my first tour of Scotland in 2011, I also hit up every single stadium in the country.

It was the stadium of East Stirlingshire from 1921 to 2008. It was right next to the town centre of Falkirk.

He was set on getting a Heart of Midlothian Football Club jersey as a souvenir from Edinburgh and so we decided to head to the stadium's gift shop which is what this review will be based on. Their team store had possibly some of *the cutest* merchandise I've seen for a football club in terms of merch for the little ones. There were west highland terrier, dinosaur, and bear shaped stuffed animals. They had pop it toys, adorable westie pencil cases, and clothing just to name a few. For the older crowd, they had a wide range of items that included your typical jerseys, keychains, apparel to nicer items like stainless steel water bottles, coffee mugs and tumblers, and a mix of candies. They didn't have my husband's size available in the jersey that he wanted, but he was able to snag some shorts as a souvenir which is a successful trip in my book!

First-Hand Experience: More info about my personal experience at this stadium - I believe that other than Celtic Park, Tynecastle is up there with Dundee United as the most intense atmosphere in Scotland. I've now seen 4 games here (including one when I was still a teenager), and it's left a permanent mark on me. It's a thrill to be in here. It's dark and imposing, it's intense and cauldron-like. It's the heart and soul of Edinburgh football. Everyone was very nice to me (even Hibs fans in town), and I can't think of a club other than the Old Firm and DUFC that inspires more intense passion from supporters than HM1874. Yes they have been around that long. I was most recently here at Tynecastle just last year in late 2014, and will be visiting again in 2016. It needs a bit of a facelift but it's still 5 stars all the way from me. So when I was doing my first tour of Scotland in 2011, I also hit up every single stadium in the country.

It's grand and intense and has a wonderful atmosphere, with the third highest average crowd of any club in Scotland. It probably has the best atmosphere of any club in Scotland. It holds 17k and has been around since 1886. It has a beautiful big illuminated Hearts mosaic badge on the outside of it. Bravo. Scotland played many games here as recently as 2003. In 2004, the owners tried to sell the stadium but the "Save Our Hearts" campaign saved it. In other news, it's Gorgie-ous.

Then there's the toilet facilities - I went with my partner and 2 daughters in what was a predominantly female weighted audience and the queues for the female toilets were 20-25 minutes. Not a surprise really as this is a football stadium which, despite recent events, is still a predominantly male attended sport ! Refreshments - well you had to queue twice, one area for alcohol (and water), the other for food and soft drinks ! Seriously ?? And the choice ? Tennents lager (boggin), cider or wine ???? It's dark ages at Hampden !! Finally, it's location. 3.5 miles from Glasgow centre, it takes an hour to walk from the railway station that serves most of the rest of Scotland. Public transport is limited to buses that crawl through the crowd on leaving and a local train that you'll need to queue for an hour to catch and goes to a different station !! Compared to Murrayfield (20 minutes walk to the city centre and 2 mainline railway stations), Sunderland's SOL (loads of toilets right outside the stadium that can be accessed during the gig) and Tottenham (great selection of food and drinks) Hampden is a dinosaur.
