Atlanta Falcons' New Stadium Will Be Best In American Football (And Possibly Every Other Sport)

LOOK: Amazing New Stadium Has A Twisting, Closable Roof
|

American NFL team the Atlanta Falcons are all set to build probably the most incredible stadium - if not building - in the world.

The beautiful rose-like design consists of eight pieces that will twist open and closed.

It received the official go-ahead from the Georgia World Congress Center Authority on Tuesday although a site has yet to be chosen.

The proposed design

It comes at a price though - a massive $200 million (£128 million).

The stadium was designed by 360 Architecture and will feature a 'halo' of screens around the upper parts of the stadium.

Architect, Bill Johnson, said: "We want to provide a unique experience that you can't get on your TV at home," reports Online Athens.

It is unnamed as yet although one person has nominated the delightful moniker of 'The Sphincter'.
