mikemgb Posted September 12, 2016 Share #4389 Posted September 12, 2016 Hello Mike, Could we be somewhere in Nebraska? Best Regards, Michael No, it's closer to the Mississippi than that. I'll post another photo to give a hint this evening if nobody is any closer by then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
war Posted September 13, 2016 Share #4390 Posted September 13, 2016 No, it's closer to the Mississippi than that. I'll post another photo to give a hint this evening if nobody is any closer by then. Please no more hints. Replaced by the federal courthouse in St. Louis, it’s the Old St. Louis County Courthouse (Dread Scott historic event) now a visitors center for the famous St. Louis Arch, symbol of the westward expansion of the US.

Correct, a beautiful building with a fascinating history. I photographed it from the top of the Arch, as you apparently knew. Over to you.

war Posted September 16, 2016 Share #4397 Posted September 16, 2016 I realized that this one is extremely difficult after I posted it so it's tiime for a big hint: This stadium is in one of the three countries that was temporarily banned from international competition and FIFA World Cup qualifiers because their altitudes were considered dangerous to unacclimated players. Now go for it! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikemgb Posted September 16, 2016 Share #4398 Posted September 16, 2016 That was an easy Google. So is this stadium one of the ones above the "dangerous" altitude? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
war Posted September 16, 2016 Share #4399 Posted September 16, 2016 That was an easy Google. So is this stadium one of the ones above the "dangerous" altitude? Very much so. Not that it might help ....but it is interesting anyway, that most of the best athletes that play in this stadium are born, raised and trained at sea level! P.S. Your Cards didn't do so well yesterday? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikemgb Posted September 17, 2016 Share #4400 Posted September 17, 2016 Very much so.

Your Cards didn't do so well yesterday? We're not talking about the Cards right now thankuverymuch. I'm out of town right now but will be back later to try and narrow this down to a country at least!
