Sports complex gives an atmosphere alright, I just don't know if it's necessarily a great atmosphere for all purposes. Great as the atmosphere is, it's very much a white suburban atmosphere that is largely dependant on tailgating.
For the Eagles that works great, for the Sixers not so much. Also go to Fenway and you'll clearly see that atmosphere if not every great sporting event atmosphere is dependant on tailgating in a parking lot.
