The USA choreography in the stands was incredible just for the sheer size alone. One of the best experiences and football games I've ever been to. 156,990 (65-70% were VOLS) people officially.

While it looks awesome, there really isn't much too it. You have cards laid out on seats before the game. Make an announcement. Everyone holds said card. We did it at A&M last year. It was done at Bristol before. It has been done several other places too. But like I said. It looks incredible.

You told us that there'd be no way that 150,000 would show up to that game, FOR MONTHS you told us this.

Seriously, with no due respect whatsoever,frick YOURSELF.

This blew away Michigan's former record attendance. I wonder if they'll try to reclaim it somehow. I don't think there's a stadium in Michigan that holds as many as Bristol. Michigan International Speedway holds 137,000 but it's the biggest.

I thought it was pretty cool ... glad the SEC was part of it.

MIS is 4 times larger than Bristol. No way a football game gets held there

The Battle at Bristol was truly unique, and I don't forsee any other CFB game eclipsing it in terms of attendance anytime soon.

I am pretty sure Texas is bigger, but its way too big. Not a chance they'd do a game there unless the only wanted 120K there with some temp seating.

Unless they actually fricking care enough to build a 160k seat stadium, this record is here to stay.

Yeah, TMS is 3x bigger than Thunder Valley

Seats over 180k, iirc, but that's including front and backstretch. No chance in hell you set up a viable football setup there, IMO.

Who the frick downvoyed the OP? While it may be easy to coordinate, it was still a great display. Especially considering the idiots protesting and the 15th anniversary of the attacks

They couldn't find 10 more people to make it an even 157k?

'Merica

Kaepernick, Arian Foster, Chris Brown should go back to Africa if they hate this country so much.

Incredible anthem, awesome choreography. I was standing up with my hand on my heart in my living room.
