Imagine if UCLA ever went on about a 15 year run and started gathering fans like crazy. Could you imagine that place in the nighttime environment?

No matter the poll, it's literally becoming a "What stadiums are ranked 2 thru 25" question. Everyone knows who #1 is.

The views are great. The stadium is a dump.

It is. And those sportscasters calling it "the Granddaddy" have obviously never tried to watch a game from the end zone bleachers.

I was glad I was able to see the Tigers play in The Rose Bowl, but I would take Tiger Stadium 10/10 times...and I really don't think that's my purple & gold glasses talking.

Went for the LSU game. It looks better from the outside. For a full night game I can see it being better. Tailgating was pretty boring. Highly disorganized and a shite show to leave the place.

Fans were friendly but i think they assumed they were just coming to watch LSU whoop them. Concessions were jam packed and took forever.

I appreciated the giant water stations they had inside for free.

When lsu is playing a big game, under the lights, there’s not an atmosphere greater.

Based on the scoring system, LSU crushed the rest.

A microcosm of California - beautiful natural aesthetics, but everything on it sucks

Was there for the '05 and '09 national championships.

You take a bus for over an hour in traffic. You get out in a parking lot. You enter an old and crumbling stadium. You either win or lose (experienced both) and want to get the frick out of there but instead you get back on your bus and sit in traffic to get to wherever you're headed back to.

I understand that there is traffic to leave many stadiums, but the Rose Bowl is in the middle of nowhere so nothing to do other than drink in a parking lot. At least at TS or the Super Dome or any campus stadium you can walk somewhere.

So awesome......

If we're talking mountain views then Utahs stadium beats Pasadena big time. And their fans show up and are loud
