One of sport's most overused cliches is the labeling of a ballpark or stadium as the mecca of football, baseball or basketball.
True, there are adherents everywhere that regard their team's home ground as sacred, and treat each weekend like a pilgrimage, but it's a metaphor that falls down when it comes to numbers alone.
For no matter how large or historic a stadium is, the likelihood of it being, like Mecca, the only one that exists, is remote. There are always rivals for the crown.
