Stadium X is the all-new venue of Bedistani football club Rolestu FC. Its name stems from the large extended stands at each corner, thus forming an X shape. From many seats in these uncovered areas, fans will have to look through glass roofing on each of the main stands to view the ball in certain areas - an experience the Progressan architects, Out Of Play Architecture, believe is unique to any stadium in the world. At each corner there is also a large video screen, though even these are dwarved by the massive floodlights (of a design previously used in Kaze Progressa's Irafma Lakeside Arena, they are believed to be among the world's largest).
The stadium is primarily made of bricks, many of which have been recycled from Progressan houses damaged by the civil war that caused the country to temporarily cease to exist. These bricks are very proudly displayed in a large wall separating the first two tiers.
The stadium has a capacity of 94,616, of which 92,416 are regular seats. 19,200 of these seats are located in the yellow X sections and are often used for away fans. The remaining 2,200 are executive box seats. In contrast to the Porcupine Palace, Alexandria's stadium, Stadium X is very squarely aimed at football and the fans sit very close to the field of play in comparison.
Stadium X was completed in December 2079, shortly ater the Porcupine Palace. It replaced the sorely outdated Yi Field, which had only about half the capacity and was highly unsuitable for one of Bedistan's elite clubs in the seventies, especially with domestic league popularity at an all-time high.
