2019 is a year of major change for Miami Dolphins fans, and right now it’s truly hard to say what direction things are headed. It’s a year to rebuild the team that we’ve come to know and love over the years. Or, to put it more bluntly, it’s a year of tanking and historically bad performance on the field. Let’s hope it’s all worth it when next year’s draft rolls around.
Even though things are heading south for the team, it’s still a good idea to head south to catch a game. One upside of the Dolphin’s tank job is that tickets on the secondary market have never been cheaper. It’s easier now than ever to head to Miami for a home game at Hard Rock Stadium.
Here’s a quick guide so you can take advantage of low prices for an NFL game. From the food at the stadium to the beauty of the town to the great places to stay, it’s no secret that Miami has one of the nation’s best offerings.
What It’s Like at Hard Rock Stadium
Local artists have contributed their work to bring the stadium to life, and many years have been spent modernizing it entirely. It’s one that not only embraces the team’s branding but the local culture that has made the community what it is today. The stadium and grounds are like the world’s largest indoor street art gallery. The stadium has also been picked to host the 2020 Super Bowl, so it’s getting into the best shape it’s been in years.
