The University of Phoenix Stadium, the home to the NFL Arizona Cardinals, is located in Glendale, Arizona, which is northwest of downtown Phoenix. Famous golf courses such as the Arrowhead Country Club, a championship 18-hole course designed by Arnold Palmer, are located a short drive from the stadium. If you are in town for a Cardinals game, consider stopping by a local course, like the short (3,490 yards, par 59) Bellaire Golf Club or Desert Mirage Golf Course, and spending the night in a hotel near the stadium.
