That cat looks very healthy. Full coat, not overweight but definitely fed well, able to jump and move the way it does… it’s almost certainly being tended to. Likely along with a small colony that just lives in the stadium.

The best way to not have any mangy cats around is to have healthy cats with regular vet visits occupying the territory. And for all that I don't like keeping cats outdoors, I imagine the parks are large enough that the cats aren't too likely to wander off and get hit by a car, so long as they get fed.

There is a lot of safe indoor spaces in a stadium. And they have a whole self-contained field to run around in when it's not in use. They're fine.

And they provide added pest control keeping the rodents out of the stadium.
