The 30 Greatest Football Places In America

This is half of my high school's stadium. It costs $6M almost 10 years ago. The outside facade is probably the highlight thought you can't see it here.

You posted a Yahoo search!
I clicked on (copied and pasted) the night time picture under that search, but it does not want to admit it.

Ole Miss belongs, pure and simple. Just don't kick off another team from the SEC. College football rules. As Zombo said, Miami is a shit place
If everybody had like minds, we would never learn. -
They're tied for 7th in most state championships in Texas.
How have you never been to an OSU game?

I assume you are talking to me?
When you say "they" are you talking about Odessa Periman...or someone else?
And, on another note...I know that Friday Night Lights is based on Permian....but what about the Odessa HS in "Heroes" is that supposed to be Permian or the other Odessa HS....Odessa High?
And, no, I have never been to an OSU game. Numerous opportunities....preferred to watch on TV

I know we have been through this..... I did put Ole Miss on if you recall.....in spite of a lack of a tradition of excellence. Right here, right now seems like the best they have ever been.
And no, I think I have to keep Miami. It is still the location of both a very successful NFL franchise, a successful college program, and successful high school programs.
Winning has to be a factor as well as pomp and circumstance.
Wargo and you can collaborate on who should be left out. ( I chose Tenn.....but I am open to discussion. I also changed and replaced KC with Baltimore)

I am going to be in Odessa in November. I may try to swing by and see this stadium.

Yes I was.
Yes they have two schools. Though it isn't the biggest rivalry around. That would be Permian and Led. Side note: I was at UT's stadium to watch Cedric Benson lead Lee past my high school for the state title when I was like 10.

Miami belongs due to HS talent alone. I went to the vaunted Miami Northwestern versus Southlake Carroll (Dallas dynasty) game at SMU in 07. Northwestern was said to be the most talented team of all time. They had backups with D1 scholarships and I think 8 Miami signees.

Nice job! How do you know?
Google image search. Just thought I'd freak you out a bit

I'm not a fan of U of Washington, or the Seahawks, but that's a great fan base up there.
Also, Morgantown WVa. is a cool place to catch a game.

I have been to both stadiums (not to a game....just to walk around). Husky stadium has a very beautiful setting, and those 'eers fans are avid......but I wouldn't put either in top 30. Add to honorable mention.

I stopped and took a look at this stadium November of last year when I was in Odessa.

Fair enough....remove Columbia, South Carolina...Ole' Miss has way more SEC tradition then does S.C.....all the others must be included.
Now, I might have to lobby for Athens, Ga....
Between the Hedges.....now I am just messing with you.
We did talk about that didn't we....I got distracted, sorry I didn't get to say good evening to you and your lovely wife.
I don't know. I don't think I can agree to removing South Carolina. That is my father in laws team as he lives nearby. That is actually the one college stadium I have been to as we went to games with him a few times. In fact, other than an Akron U game (my alma mater), I don't think I have actually been to any other college games. Never been to an Ohio State game.
I should like to go to a Trinity Univ. (TX) game because my daughter is now a cheerleader for them, but that is 1500 miles away. Maybe someday.

And I DID make it to a Trinity game last year....the final game that my daughter cheered for.
(again, remember, Trinity...alma mater of Browns 1st round draft pick Marvin Upshaw)

I've driven through WVA in years past but never made it to Mountineer-land, my old Alma Mater YSU played them this year in football talked to a few people who said it was nice but HOT! YSU gave them a good game but 1-A vs 1-AA is always a tough draw.I have been to both stadiums (not to a game....just to walk around).

Speaking of nice campus facilities the YSU I started at in 1968 was nothing compared to what they have now! The planitarium that my brother taught at and improved way back is celebrating it's 50th anniversary.
The educational facilities have vastly improved but the student and sporting venues are as good as there are in any 1-AA school anywhere especially the indoor football, track and multiuse building is just beautiful.
Check it out if ANY of you are in the area.

Oakland/East Bay, California. The Raiders, the Hell's Angels of the NFL, along with their crazy fan make the East Bay area a natural for this list. The icing on the cake however is the nearby Concord DeLaSalle High School which has won a record 6 USA Today National High School Championships. Plus, Cal ( or UC-Berkely if you prefer) is an upcoming progam that spent loads to improve their stadium.
I hear that the Raiders are going to be getting some help/relief when it comes to their attempted move to Las Vegas.
If indeed the Raiders do move, should I remove the East Bay area from the 30/31 top spot list?
If I did that, what would be the candidates to replace it?

Should we augment this thread and talk about the best places in Europe to see Football (real football, not futbol)
Is London NFL stadium east?

one of the best places to watch the NFL draft is Canton Mike's mancave....
