There's a sports field in the UK that is said to have been celebrated for its "space age" design, including a very 1970s-sci-fi-looking press booth overhanging the field. If I remember right, it won some magazine's No. 1 Favorite UK Building sometime in the past couple years.

I know this is vague. I remember seeing pictures of it back when it was in the news, but can't seem to dig up a thing now. It doesn't seem to be Millennium Stadium. I can't remember what sport was played there; I seem to think it was socc-- uh, football, but I'm not positive.

Anyone know what this was and where it is?

It might be there.

Hmm. Looks a bit like Deep Thought from H2G2 movie.
