"The Cathedral of Futbol"

Today, the group visited the 90,000 (three Carrier Domes!) seat Wembley Stadium. A couple of quick facts about the outstanding facility:

-6,000 paid staff members work on event day
-Each concession stands commemorates an historical England futbol moment
-A 1 km concourse surrounds the top tier
-166 private boxes that includes an exclusive suite for the Queen

What a stadium! Surprisingly, only the gold medal round will be conducted in the stadium. It would be a thrilling experience to be an intern for a summer.
