Tailgating
There are several areas to tailgate in at State Farm Stadium. However, there are a few areas that are more sought after than others. The F lot is one of the most sought after locations, since it is a grass lot with plenty of bathrooms. The "Great Lawn" is also a premier location, is located on the west side of the stadium.
Family Sections
Sections 114, 424 and 432 are Family Sections; no alcohol is permitted in these sections.
Club Level
The Club Level at State Farm Stadium is located in the 200 level, which wraps around the majority of the stadium, expect for the end zones. The crowd in the club level is much more sedated than the fans in the upper and lower levels, but there a several amenities included in the Club Seats. These amenities include wider and more padded seats, less crowded restrooms, separate entrance, and access to higher quality food and drink options. As one Cardinals fan put it, "If you are going to the game to be a fan, skip the club level...if you are going to watch the game as a spectator, club is the way to go."
Best Seats
In my opinion, whether you sit on the Home bench (section 104 to 112) or the Visitor’s bench (section 126 to 134) doesn’t matter all that much. Obviously some of the best seats are sections 128, 129, 130 & 107, 108 and 109. Putting aside the so-close-to-the-players-I-can-smell-them factor, the best seats would definitely be between rows 10 and 20. When sitting at or near the 50 yard line, elevation is important for viewing all the action. When looking to buy tickets in any of the 100s sections the first row seats are only desired for the experience, not for the view. Being in the first row of a section in the end zone can be great for the occasional touchdown, but this perk will also have it’s cons when the ball is on the opposite side. This comes down to personal preference, but I think it’s safe to say for the 100s sections on the sidelines most of the time you want seats higher then the 10th row.
Team Benches
The Arizona Cardinals bench is located in front of sections 106-110, and the visiting team bench is located in front of sections 128-132.
Seat Numbers
The State Farm Stadium follows a common stadium layout, in that seat number 1 is closest to the lower number section adjacent to it. For example, seat number 1 in section 127 will be closest to section 126. The majority of sections at State Farm Stadium contain 18 seats per row.

You've landed in my wheelhouse now! Let me dive into this treasure trove of information about State Farm Stadium and its events. First things first, let's talk about the stadium itself.
State Farm Stadium, formerly known as the University of Phoenix Stadium, is a marvel of engineering that opened its doors in 2006. Located in Glendale, Arizona, just west of Phoenix, this stadium is not only the home of the NFL's Arizona Cardinals but also plays host to various events, including the annual BCS Fiesta Bowl and concerts featuring big names like Beyoncé & Jay-Z, Taylor Swift, and the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
Now, let's get into the nitty-gritty. The stadium boasts a unique feature: the first fully retractable natural grass playing surface in the United States. This means the field can move outside, basking in the daylight when needed. Notably, State Farm Stadium has hosted prestigious events like Super Bowl XLII and the 2011 BCS National Championship game.
For those planning to attend events, it's crucial to understand the seating arrangements. The seating capacity is 63,400 for football games, and there are various seating configurations, from the Club Level with its sedated crowd and premium amenities to the Family Sections where alcohol is a no-go. The best seats, in my opinion, are between rows 10 and 20, especially around the 50-yard line for an optimal viewing experience.
When it comes to specific events, like the Fiesta Bowl or an Arizona Cardinals game, knowing where the team benches are (sections 106-110 for the Cardinals and 128-132 for the visiting team) can enhance the experience. And don't forget the essential details about seat numbers, with seat number 1 being closest to the lower-numbered section adjacent to it.
If you're heading to a Cardinals game, the tailgating scene at State Farm Stadium has its own set of rules and sought-after locations. The F lot and the "Great Lawn" are prime spots, offering grassy expanses and convenient facilities.
Lastly, for those keen on attending an AMA Supercross or a Mecum Auto Auction, State Farm Stadium has got you covered. Just check out the upcoming events, grab your tickets, and enjoy the experience!
