    These stadiums are old but, have been renovated and expanded multiple times over the years as the sport grew. They did not like much like these when they were first built. Also, college sports existed before professional sports, so the culture of college sports run deep, it was the only game in town for a while.

    All of these stadiums have been renovated and enlarged over the years, often several times. College football began 40 years before the NFL was formed, and for many years the NFL's popularity was mainly confined to the cities where the teams were located. It was TV in the 1950's that created the NFL with nationwide appeal that we have today. To give you an idea of how insignificant the NFL was in the 1920's, a star player was introduced to the President of the United States as being with the Chicago Bears, and the president replied that he had always enjoyed animal acts.

    Here's an interesting fact about WVU's stadium in Morgantown, West Virginia. Though it has a capacity of only 60,000 spectators, it technically becomes the largest city in WV on game days. The largest city in WV is Charleston, with a population of a little over 47,000 residents.

    Michigan Stadium is not only the biggest in the US but it's the 2rd biggest in the world! Fun fact: Michigan Stadium is built into the ground so only the top couple rows are above the ground level so from outside you'd hardly even know the stadium was there

    It's good to note that the US itself is about the size of Europe so we have a lot of room to put stadiums and a looooot of people that are passionate about college football

    The only one of those stadiums that ever hosted an NFL team was the Cotton Bowl, which the Cowboys originally played. When the NFL came along in 1920, it was seen as something star college players did until they got a real job, or alongside their real job.

    I live in Atlanta and we have three stadiums within 5 miles of each other: Mercedes Benz stadium which is the home of NFL team Atlanta Falcons and MLS Team Atlanta United, Bobby Dodd Stadium on the campus of Georgia Tech and Center Parc Stadium which is the home of Georgia State University and was the Olympic Stadium for the 1996 Olympics

    These lists ignore auto racing venues for some reason, but if you can call those “stadiums”, they’re FAR larger than college football stadiums. I live not far from Texas Motor Speedway, which holds 200,000 people. And I think there are others that dwarf THAT.

    These stadiums were not as large when they were built. All of them have been expanded and updated over the last hundred years. College stadiums far exceed the size of NFL stadiums. You might be interested in seeing the size of high-school stadiums, some are massive.

    The higher you go the easier it is to see what is going on, but up close is the most festive, usually the fans up top are the quiter fans in the stadium where as the people up front are rowdy and yell out funny insults and make whistle noises to sound like the refs or yell out hike so the team jumps offsides, I did that one time and I take credit for it working even if it was just a coincidence. 😂

    You’re doing a great job with your reactions! New sub here. I’m from Baton Rouge, Louisiana but have retired to Las Vegas. Baton Rouge is home for LSU, Louisiana State University. LSU’s Tiger Stadium is THE place to be when the team is playing at home. The stadium has been nicknamed Death Valley, where opposing teams come to die but it’s also called Deaf Valley because the crowd gets so loud! There’s nothing better than being in Tiger stadium on Sarurday night cheering on our LSU Tigers💜💛⚜️

    All the stadiums you reviewed are college. There are 124 college stadiums in America, plus 30 NFL professional stadiums. People don't realize that college football came about before the NFL. Also keep in mind, the USA population is 334 million people 4x the size of the UK and 7x the size of England.

      There’s a lot more college stadiums than that. There are about 255 Division I teams alone, not counting Div II Div III, and NAIA. They pretty much all have stadiums too, if a lot of small ones.

    There are no stadia in Europe as large as any of these detailed here. The only stadium larger anywhere is in North Korea.
    College football predates NFL by about 60 years. Even then, professional football was something of an afterthought, relative to the college game. It remained thus until television became a staple in American households - the early 1950's.
    By the late 1960's, the NFL was truly big business. However, to this day, even the largest NFL venues do not approach the size of the biggest college stadia. Every weekend in the fall, roughly 5,000,000 Americans go to a college football game of some kind. There are approximately 120 universities, which field teams at the highest level, and hundreds more at successfully lower levels - more or less organized by enrollment of students. (Using enrollment alone is not a hard and fast rule, but it's close enough for a general understanding). Lower division teams obviously play in front of much smaller crowds, ranging from a few hundred to perhaps 30,000.
    Broadcasting rights for college football bring in millions upon millions of dollars.
    By contrast, there are 15-16 NFL games per weekend during the season. The combined attendance is about 1.1 million. The broadcasting rights are shared between networks. I couldn't tell you what they're worth, but the figure is astronomical. The NFL is by far the most lucrative professional sports league on Earth. In terms of revenue generated, the NFL is to the EPL, as the EPL is, let's say, to the Scottish Premiership. Ok, that might be a bit of hyperbole.... But not much.
    I mention the Scottish Premiership out of loyalty. I'm a committed Celtic fan.

    Best place to sit is in every luxury box. You have to make a luxury $$$ income though. Big screen tv's, private washrooms, waiter staff, catered food, drinks, air conditioning, private parking. But, the better part is the party tailgate before the game with 100 of your best friends, smoked meats, drinks, portable washrooms, caravans, canopy shade, electricity, music. Heaven on a Saturday👍🥩🍗🍻🍸🥃🍎🌶🥗🧀
