Stadium/Game photos for framing and mounting?

I recently moved into a new office and need some wall hangings.
I have travelled to a few college football games and would like to have a photo of each place I have visited framed and mounted. It would be great if I could actually get stadium shots for the games I attended, but realize that I may be left with just generic pics.
Please let me know if you have any recommendations of a good source for what I am looking for.
Any other thoughts are also welcome. Thanks in advance.
In case it is helpful, here is the list of games:
Tennessee @ Florida (Swamp, 2005);
Texas @ Oklahoma (Cotton Bowl, 2006);
USC @ Notre Dame (Notre Dame, 2007);
Miss. State @ Ole Miss (Ole Miss, 2008)
Auburn @ Alabama (Tuscaloosa, 2008);
Florida @ LSU (Tiger Stadium, 2009);
Nebraska vs. Texas (BXII Championship, Cowboy Stadium 2009);
Army vs. Notre Dame (Yankee Stadium, 2010)
South Carolina vs. Auburn (SECCG, Georgia Dome, 2010);
LSU @ Miss State (Starkville, 2011);
Auburn @ Clemson (Clemson, 2011);
Navy @ South Carolina (Columbia, 2011); and
Georgia vs LSU (SECCG, Georgia Dome, 2011).

sorry, can't help you out, but wondering how your experiences were at each stadium. Do you have a favorite venue, game, experience, etc?
these were two low scoring, hard fought games. looks like the only Gator games you have ever attended resulted in two Florida victories.....keep coming back

Do they make prints of Starkville and why would you want one?

How's life Halifax? It will probably be tough to get photo's from specific games that you attended, but finding high quality aerial photo's of Tiger Stadium should be easy.
While they don't have samples posted, Aero Data of Baton Rouge has some awesome Tiger Stadium pics available for purchase. I'm sure they can send you samples. LINK
Also - go through the LSU photo store. There are thousands of pics going a ways back. Search football and input 2009-2010 season. Right up front you'll see a great photo of LSU defense crunching Tebow. LINK
Time for a return trip to BR!
(are your kids still wearing their LSU gear?)

Let me answer your question this way:
Florida is a great place to watch a game. People who have not been there may be surprised to hear that it is extremely loud. I happened to be there for Urban Meyer's first home SEC game and had great seats. The fans were hungry after the ugly Zook years. It was a scrappy game, but since it was so close, it was crazy from start to finish.
When the game was over we were invited in to party with some students who owned the house where we parked our car. We got back to Orlando at sunrise.
Florida needs to get back to being a force. The league is better when they are a national contender.

If you put up framed pictures from all those games your office is gonna look like shite.

Might I suggest a nice large map. Then for each game, have some pins made with the teams helmets, score and date for the game attended.
That will look way better in an office, unless your office is a girls dorm room.

I can't speak for others, but our MSU experience was a good one. We were to there long. We flew into Memphis on the day of the game and headed out to Birmingham right afterward. So I can't say anything about the town itself as all of our time was spent on the campus near the stadium before kickoff.
Here is what I wrote when we got back from that trip:
"Our Starkvegas experience beat our expectations. There was a ton of energy in the stadium due to it being a Thursday night game. I liked how it was so accessable. From what I could see, the MSU fans are very welcoming to visitors. I hope you don't lose your bells. They gave me a headache, but it's fun tradition."

By the way, I live in Nova Scotia, so I am in no position to call anywhere Terriblesville.

Good to hear from you Goose. I owe you an email.
Life in Halifax is cold, but good.
Thanks for the links and advice. I will have a look through what they offer.
My middle daughter was wearing her LSU SEC Championship T-shirt this morning.
My father has lined up a trip to Michigan State where he has a strong contact and did his Masters. So I am going to have to go there, for what looks like the Boise State game.
However, I will be angling for a second trip to the SEC. I was considering the LSU @ Auburn game since I haven't been there. But the timing doesn't work well with the BSU game and some other stuff.
So I am giving a long look at the Bama @ LSU game.

Great shot. I was right behind the Auburn bench and watched the meltdown closely.
I'd guess Rammer Jammer was in full (and loud) voice at the time that picture was taken.

You are probably right. I'll give that some thought. You should see it now...

You can take 2010 and we'll bookend with national championships.

It's been a while since I have been in one of those.
