More of a question than a rant

Why do the larger stadiums have a running track around them on a purely football game??????
Stadiums in real life that have this are rubbish you sit too far from the action and the atmosphere is crap too so why didn't they steal designs from some of the best stadiums around the world??????

I challenge anyone to name a stadium anywhere that has a running track that's any good
before anyone names it don't say Roma been there it's rubbish
