I would add a few, but those are all places I would like to go or have been. I don't know anything about Franklin field, but I have been to Harvard Stadium. The first Horseshoe stadium. It isn't as big as Ohio Stadium, but it is impressive with it's own history. I didn't get to see a game there as the had an away game when I was there, but it was still a cool place. It is a long walk from the school and you walk across a bridge over the Charles River and see the rowing team practicing, the the athletic complex which is smaller than one I no from Massilon high school, but the building is old and cool. It is worth the walk if you are ever in Boston.

It's def. their opinion, especially since a certain place was left off, but I won't cry. :lol:
They’re either going to run the ball here or their going to pass it.

The fewer rules a coach has, the fewer rules there are for players to break.

See, well ya see, the thing is, he should have caught that ball. But the ball is bigger than his hands.

I have been to Bronco Stadium countless times...Fun place to watch football...well...where isn't...but if I was making a list of the best stadiums...not sure I would....I can think of a lot more. University of Washington is the most breath taking stadium I have been to; looking over Lake Washington with the boats and their sails, the greenery and the pure aid from the Cascades...much better than the action on the field as of late.

I went to Wake Forest this weekend to see the game and it is a neat stadium. A little too stiff for my tastes but neat anyway. They have a section of the stands railed off for the Wake Dance team to cheer on their team. Sadly, they would have been the 35 to 35 premium front row seats. They have a neat scoreboard but as I said it all felt like a financial display of snobbery and cold money.

I'd vote for Lane Stadium but I'm obviously biased and if your from out of town it's a loud and oppressive atmosphere.
