Cleveland Browns Stadium is the fantastic home of the Browns. Located on the shores of Lake Erie, the stadium has great sight lines from all seats, and features sports bars in the main concourse.
Plenty of parking is available, around the stadium at $10-$20 per car. There is tailgating along the railroad tracks running east of the stadium as well as in an unpaved lot just west of the stadium. The Flats and Warehouse District are a short walk south.
Cleveland is a friendly town, but be careful if you're sporting an out-of-town jersey or hat at a ballgame. While the vast majority of fans won't give you any trouble, there are some who will pile on the verbal abuse.
Overall, Cleveland is about average expense-wise once you're there. Getting there by air is about as cheap as it gets, as both Southwest and Continental have hubs there.
Be careful walking to the stadium with an open container; citations are given out for such offensive conduct.
Bars/Restaurants
Basement - There is usually a line, but it is worth the wait. Balcony's that overlook the streets and a deck-bar are the highlights. Techno and New Wave music rule the dance floor, but not the entire bar.
Rock Bottom Brewery - Don't let the name fool you, the Rock Bottom features some of the best microbrews in town, great fare, and a good selection of cigars available as well. Live music filters down from the second floor balcony.
The Humidor - They have cigars, and lots of them. Couches and loveseats provide for comfortable seating. It is a little dark and smokey inside, but what would you expect?
Other Attractions
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame - Located down the street from the football stadium this amazing museum houses the best music, never before seen artifacts, and more. Plan to spend a good four or five hours here.
Great Lakes Science Center - Great place to spend a day especially if you have kids. Enjoy a film in the Onimax theater and more
