Sorry about the size of the photo but this is the best one I've found. The stadium looks out over Lake Washington, and the Cascade Mountains. One of the upperdecks has a view of Mount Rainier, which you can see in the upper right hand corner. It's a beautiful place to watch a football game... if Washington was worth a shite anymore.


I realize I am showing my geographical idiocy here but is that where LSU is traveling to play Washington this yr. If so that will be a nice trip.

LSU: Went there for a game once and I was impressed. I liked how tall the stadium was, which made it visable from everywhere in BR.

Wow, I had to go do some work after making this thread and I come back to 2 pages. Sweet.

My choice is UGA. Really pretty stadium.

Now in terms of overall 'setting' and obviously smaller,its hard to beat Air Force's and North Carolina's


The Rose Bowl ain't a bad setting either, which is where I hope our Tigers are playing on January 7, 2010.

I always liked Bryant Denny because everytime I've been there LSU wins.

The old Tulane stadium was nice. Just like their football team, it was torn apart and is a memory.

It depends if you're talking about just the stadium (I'd agree with you), but the surroundings, Touchdown Jesus, the campus, etc are all awesome. Actually just visited Missouri the other day, too, and to my surprise, I thought their stadium was pretty nice. Had a Horseshoe shape (maybe that's why I liked it ) and at the end without seats, there was a grassy hill with white rocks forming an "M" in the middle. It was pretty cool. Doubt it's the best or anything, but underrated, IMO. Thought the campus was underrated, as well.

Tennesee, but just because of the location on the river. The stadium is a heaping pile of shite, but I like the floating tailgate.


The stadium has been allowed to decline but we're in the middle of some major renovations. Looks better everyday

That big park is Centennial. Yesterday and today, ESPN is filming the new Monday Night Football video with Hank Jr. They need extras. Needed 250 last night and 500 tonight. Sign ups are at 7 pm at the Parthenon

Hmm, good question and glad to see all the Shoe responses.


Probably Neyland for size and location.

And, I'm sure Ohio State would have plenty of money to invest in cleaning up the stadium a bit.

Ohio State. The Horseshoe shape is cool and the block O is almost as cool as checkerboard endzones.

Not sure just yet. I've got a buddy who graduated from there that is wanting me to come up. However, I've got a new addition to the family coming any day now. Not sure if the wife is gonna be too keen on me taking off for the weekend while she takes care of the baby. We'll see though. I was there in '04 though, and had a blast. But, the Knoxville cops are assholes to visiting fans.

KPD are assholes to the home town folks too. Overcompensating for something. Congrats on the new addition
