re: Worst Football Stadium in the SEC

I'm pretty sure the ones that usually think Commonwealth is the worst have never made the trip to Lexington. Kind of goes along with the "Worst Road Trip in the SEC" line of thinking as well if they've never been on a Keeneland weekend.

Agreed. Commonwealth is just sort of out-dated and those exposed steel beams didn't do much in the way of pleasing aesthetics.

Otherwise, the tailgating scene is pretty good, the amenities are at least average, there is some good stadium food outside of the not-so-great concession stands (BBQ, gumbo/jambalaya, fresh kettle corn) and the new video screen/sound system improved the game experience after 2011.

After the renovations are complete, I expect Commonwealth will be really, really nice. More green space immediately around the stadium, bigger concourses, and modern restrooms. Not to mention the club/loge seating options.
