    Crucible.
    The pinnacle of snooker, atmosphere and history of the venue trumps to poor facilities and cramped conditions.
    The memphis pyramid is a multi purpose arena as opposed to a sporting venue.

    The setting of the pool doesn't do enough to offset the history of St Andrews so I'm voting for another golf course. And I don't even play golf

    The views over Montjuic are fantastic. You can count the Gaudi monuments in view. St Andrews is a classic venue, but Montjuic's uniqueness pips it for me

    St. Andrews.
    Far more iconic than the pool
    more atmosphere on a golf course than an open air pool.
    more history.


    no contest

    St Andrews, deservedly so, has the history and world renown.
    But Montjuïc has more to offer, a fabulous city, views, Olympic pedigree.
    Montjuïc gets my vote here

    MCG for me.

    More interesting and varied history of use than just a football stadium.

    MCG. Imagine the place full during an Ashes game. The Camp Nou is great and storied too but those steep stands in Melbourne... I'd just love to be there.

    Camp Nou.
    A stadium that deserves its place amongst the famous sports venues of the world.
    Its hosted the greats of soccer, close to 100k capacity, cool city, great club
