Most of the largest past stadiums were used for association football or American football. However, some high capacity venues were used for baseball, cricket, Gaelic games, rugby union, rugby league, Australian rules football and Canadian football. Many stadiums had a running track around the perimeter of the pitch allowing them to be used for athletics.
