This guy bashes the Big House...but before the new structure. The Florida section is hilarious. This is true too. I went to a Florida-South Carolina game back in 2006...The blocked kick / extra ponts game---total redneckville.
Any of us that complain about Columbus or East Lansing are spoiled, because Gainesville is a sewer of ignorance
this is awful
I have a cousin that lives in
I have a cousin that lives in Gainsville (U of M grad). She went to a game once, she said never again. She still roots for the gators 2nd but Michigan is always first.

You have to be a fan to
You have to be a fan to understand the excitement in Michigan Stadium. That's all there is to it. I just don't care what this clown thinks.
Everywhere you go, go poo.
Why is it, I think this tool would love Columbus?
He would probably think the urine dumping, cussin', hatin' Suckeye fans would be the best thing he's seen.

Really?
Suckeyes?

I'd rather go Yiddish...
I prefer "Schumckeyes."
heh.
Ohio State insults? Let's go to the source.

That's the last time I'll ever say something like that, I promise.
Special Teams means special times!
Suckeyes?
I read the comment and thought "fish" when I saw this "word", possibly because poorly prepared salmon could be called "suckeye". Anyway, the article made me think that Bleacher Report wasn't all that bad really, which is frightening in itself.

Haters gonna hate
Dude's full of sh*t. The second half of that '08 Wisconsin game was absolutely bonkers.

my best friend from hs went
my best friend from hs went to UF, so I use to go down there to visit him every fall and went to a couple games. the best part was def seeing and hanging with the "talent" there before and after games.
summary
here's a quick summary of why this guy doesn't like the big house
there is no number 3. haters gonna hate.
I honestly think the height
I honestly think the height thing is a huge positive. I'll always remember my first time going to Michigan Stadium as a scrawny sixth grader who had just started running cross country to run steps with my uncle. Walking in the gates I was confident I would be okay, that confidence quickly faded as I saw the bowl seemingly grow before my eyes walking in. Damn was I ever sore the next day.
Go Blue!
I went to UF
And went to enough games to shit all over this guys assessment of Florida's gameday atmosphere. And I don't even like rooting for the Gators. I'm sure the guy may have run into a screaming redneck or two, but it certainly isn't prevalent. At all. Besides, we have enough coeds to take your mind off the fact that it may seem like a KKK convention every now n then. Just think of the coeds. Overrated, my ass.
I said - not good enough.
Trolls
gonna troll for page clicks.

Terrible article. Much worse
Terrible article. Much worse than bleacher report. I have been to the big house (obviously) but I have also been to the swamp, and I can say that neither are overrated at ALL. They both are great stadiums and atmospheres. I have a feeling this writer has never been to either...
UM Hate
They hate us, because they can't be us.
He wonders what the stadium looks like post-renovations?
Google it.
The Swamp
Went to the South Carolina-UF game in the swamp last year. Have to say, although Florida lost, it was pretty exciting. The Big House is awesome for it's sheer numbers and beauty, epic even. The Swamp is electric and loud. Gotta love it. Look forward to going back to both this year!

The Big House v. The Swamp
Since my daughter is now a Gator, I went to a few games this year - mostly in the skyboxes. I just could not really cheer for the Gators and was sort-of happy to see all of those bad snaps and offensive snafues (In one game, at the end of the half, Florida had more points - something like 21 - as opposed to yards - like 20.
However, the Swamp has a great college atmosphere, spirit and very loud. The stadium was filled with the school colors. Heard no racists comments and saw no real renecks (Not like Alabama)
But the Swamp does not have the class (in my opinion) of the Michigan Stadium. The Big House is the biggest and best. It was a great atmosphere, but not nearly as loud and raucous as Florida. Hopefully, the new skyboxes (which I was able to see this year) will increase the noise level.
Note: I went to UM when we could bring in alcohol into the stadium and at half time - I would run to the local store for some more. That is truly was college football was all about.
Actually, I kind of liked
Actually, I kind of liked that the stadium didn't tower over the city (before the renovations). It made going into it that much more impressive. You couldn't believe that a roughly 30foot wall could hold 100,000+ people. Of course, now the guy will probably complain that it is a pretty tasteful structure where you don't see all the steel girders and stuff......
there's three selections, each received a paragraph, and the content is worse than BR. and the UF section isn't funny.
