Tennesse has made some great renovation to Neyland Stadium. Really impressed.

Texas has a completely different stadium after their most recent renovations. Very nice.

Kentucky has by far the cleanest stadium I've ever been to. That is one of my favorite road trips.

Not making fun. I was at our stadium just Saturday night. However, "Nicest" and "aesthetically" pleasing don't exactly describe TS. Large and loud - yes. Ain't particularly "nice" though. You folks are sensitive around here lately. Can't even call Ole Miss by their adopted mascot and now you can't comment on a stadium because mine is smaller. Dayum!

Of the stadiums I've watched college football games at(not too many yet, as I've been to mostly home games):

1.Ohio Stadium:
:homer: I know, but seriously, it's easily the nicest stadium I've been to.

2.The Big House:
Nice stadium with crappy seating(there's a reason they fit so many people in that stadium... each seat is divided into two). Still though, it's got history and the new renovations have it looking pretty nice.

3.Cleveland Browns Stadium:
Watched the Toledo/tOSU game last year here. Love that it's right up on Lake Erie.

4.Superdome:
Was a nice stadium, but will never be higher on this list. I prefer to watch my football outdoors.

5.Nippert Stadium:
It's pretty cool how they have their stadium built into the lowest spot on their campus. If you walk up on it from the right direction, you don't even see it till you're right up on it.
Very small though.

I didn't calculate noise into this as much as aesthetic. Adding that in, The Horshoe and Dome get added points.

Aesthetically Pleasing: Whatever San Fransisco's baseball field is called now

Loudest: Estadia Alberto A Armando aka Bombonara

The SD is a nice place but could use a facelift. My 2 year old niece would have a hard time getting into those damn seats if she went to a game there.

Yeah, the SF Giants Baseball Stadium Rocks. Best and most fun game experience for MLB I've ever been to.

JHS...but ive only been to BDS, Sanford, Williams-Brice, and Neyland

eta: didnt know this was for all sports. In that case, ill go with the old Yankee Stadium...its probably not the "nicest", but it is where i enjoyed myself the most. got to go the last season and just fell in love. just an unreal feeling when you step inside that every baseball fan should have gotten to experience. one of the greatest days in my life, and i hate the yankees

1) Stanford Stadium in Palo Alto is by far the coolest stadium I've been too. It's small, I think seats around 50K. But it's new and it's double decked all around the field. It brings the 50K of fans very close to the field wherever you sit in the stadium. Because it is new its open air with plenty of restrooms.



That is a huge transformation that was made in less than a year to this stadium. From the end of the 2005 season to the second game in 2006 it went to your picture from this (at least from the pictures I could find maybe more work had started earlier but still a huge difference).

My #1 is the Sea of Red in Lincoln, Nebraska. They have sold out every game since 1962!

And if you want a good view from the stadium, it's hard to beat the view of the Atlanta Skyline from Bobby Dodd:

I have been to Tiger Stadium, Jordan Hare, and the Swamp in the SEC. I like Tiger Stadium the best. JHS was pretty nice not going to lie. But when my friend brought me to the game vs. WVU last year it rained like hell. I liked the Swamp also but the fans were douches. The jumbotron in the stadium was pretty sweet.
