RumbleFish posted:I don't think Williams-Brice itself has ever looked straight up bad -- unless you don't care for its shape -- but the grounds around it were atrociously awful until the school finally wised up, bought the land, and has been beautifying it for the past few seasons. It looks so much better now and will be gorgeous once the trees they've planted have had some time to grow. I went to a ton of games there when I was a kid. It was a shithole. Thank god they're finally making some improvements.

Of the 216 sports venues world-wide that seat over 60,000 we have 105 of those(45 of the top 100). That's absolutely staggering.

I am surprised on how Northwestern made the Bottom 10 on fans to alums because I didn't think many fans were not alums. I live 10 miles from campus and I barely see any NU merch outside of Evanston and a few random people here or there. And it's not like Ryan Field is packed unless another Big 10 team is visiting.

This was more about Maryland in general than the awfulness of their stadium, but its a really shallow horseshoe in a poo poo part of the MD suburbs inaccessible by any reasonable public transport so as evidenced in those photos it's a p whatever place.

I'll admit it looks better with the new upper deck, but Nebraska's Memorial Stadium is the definition of designing yourself into a corner. Great sight lines! For about 40 people!

It said that its nine percent of fans, right? Well, there's 85 scholarship players and they've all got moms, so there's 85 non-alumni fans. Round that up to 90 and there's your nine percent. And apparently only around a thousand total Northwestern fans, which seems right.

OU's stadium has always been a moderate embarrassment to me. Asymmetrical with open corners in the south endzone, and a parking garage for the west facade: View from the northwest corner  View from the southeast corner A $350 million dollar plan to renovate and bowl in the stadium proposed several months ago got tabled when oil prices plummeted and OU underperfomed this season. A scaled-down $150 million proposal has been approved in it's place, though. 1st pic is the new south facade, 3rd and 4th the new south endzone.

Nebraska's stadium is much more symmetrical now since they added an upper deck on the east side, which is where the picture was taken from. The picture misses the massive video board on the north side, too. EDIT: I wish I could find a picture of the billboard that's just off that freeway, which states THERE IS NO PLACE. I wish...

Crotch Bat posted:Nothing is more awesome than the sheer opulence we have in this country with regards to CFB stadiums. They're used 6 or 7 times a year for the minor league version of a sport only truly popular in 1 country in the world for a game played by kids barely old enough to vote and there's literally hundreds of them scattered across the nation. We use it for graduations too. There's actually a lot of fan debate why Rutgers Stadium doesn't host concerts, apparently there's a local noise ordinance. TBH it's pretty boring and generic, but at least it's a tough place to play. Most northeast teams (Pitt, BC, Cuse, UConn, Temple) have morgue stadiums. The Dome use to be rocking back in the day. Now it's just sad and depressing.
