Sports-Theme Gimmick, Videogame-Theme Gimmick

I request, for anyone who is good at making maps but sucks at ideas for maps, to make sports themed maps, such as

(in order of how significant they would be strategically)

oval track (400 meter oval, probably make things go faster on it)
golf courses
football/soccer stadium
american football stadium
(hockey,basketball)
(making a stadium would have more strategic significance than a flat rectangle with lines)

AND

video-game themed gimmick:

mario, with pipes (and any other thing you can think of)

I obviously don't know how to make maps, but any takers? anyone think these are good ideas or awful ideas? Even if someone thinks they're awful, I'd still like to see them.

No offense, your ideas may not be very good.
1. Making a stadium would mean that you should make a huge feature
2. That takes a lot of effort and its time consuming. As also that feature would serve only for that cause. It wouldnt be very reusable
3. Despite that it would be a cool map, It wouldnt be very playable. Just small flat area to play...

Some nice lua physics modding on an ice arena map could be fun (but gimmicky).

I mean like a stadium with stands, but apparently that would be incredibly hard, unless there's some easy way...to make steps in an oval...thanks for the feedback though.
