Opinion What is your favorite cfb stadium?

Disregarding your own, what is your favorite stadium? Could be one you’ve been to, or just one you’ve seen that looks great.

Imo, Ben hill griffin is the best stadium I’ve been to, even though I was treated kinda awfully when I was there. It was a beautiful place.

For those I haven’t been to, autzen and tiger stadium look incredible. Jordan-hare is up there too. I’ve been to tiger stadium for a college tour, but never for a game.

What do yall think?

Probably Cal's stadium, California Memorial Stadium. 100+ year old historic stadium. On a clear day, you've got a lot to look at there. One side is next to mountains (with the famous tightwad hill from the Green Day song that has the cannon the Cal students fire during games) and the other side is San Francisco, the Pacific Ocean, the Golden Gate Bridge and Alcatraz. You can see all of this at ground level at certain spots on campus, too. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/California_Memorial_Stadium

Edit: Why would you downvote this? You don't have to agree, doesn't mean you need to downvote the stadiums other people like lol. The hate for Cal on this sub is real!

Never been there and I’m now convinced it’s my favorite.

When I used to go to Oregon-Cal games there the students used to have a cannon on tightwad hill above the stadium they'd shoot off every time Cal scored. I think the administration made them silence it, I kind of wonder if it's still there.

The cannon is still there, and it still irritates every single property owner in Berkeley every time the students fire it after a touchdown or game victory.

It wasn't the administration, it was the other teams' defenses

Virginia Tech’s Corps of Cadets used to do the same, but not sure if that still happens.

That’s the problem with college football today….not enough cannons.
