As a Navy guy, I see this game as something for the whole nation. What would the rant say about this game moving from iconic location to iconic location from year to year. After traveling to Lambeau, it made me think about this game imoving to different locations. My short list would be Lambeau, the Rose Bowl, Jerry's World, and,,,of course -Tiger Stadium. The Big Bouse, Husky Stadium, Arrowhead, Happy Valley, The Shoe and the Superdome are also no brainers. Thoughts of the rant...

I think that would be really cool. If I were a dad (still a couple years away lol) and had any sons or daughters, this would be a game I would want to take my kids to see. Would be awesome if it was nearby!

I had this same thought earlier. They have played it in a few different locations. This year it should be in Hawaii. Move it to different regions. New York, SanDiego, Atlanta, Houston or Dallas.

Play it at different bases or always nearby bases and fill the stands with soldiers and seamen......

It's being played at M&T bank stadium in Baltimore today. There was no local advertising for tickets because it was sold out immediately.

Sounds good to me. Especially since they'd have a following anywhere in the country. I think they actually did play at the rose bowl a few times back in the day.

I like keeping it in the region where the schools are based. A lot of those cadets and midshipman wouldn't be able to get to some of those more far away destinations and this is for them.

8 years enlisted active duty...academy graduates are my least favorite officers behind the ROTC and prior enlisted officers
I was never allured by rooting for these teams as a result

Saw game in 2010 in Philly, one of the coolest CFB trips I've ever done, nothing like seeing the Navy Seals and Army Rangers parachuting into the stadium....it as a truly fantastic event!

No.
Both academies are in the Northeast. Play the game in Baltimore, DC (FedEx), Philadelphia NYC (NJ) or Boston (Foxboro)
Yes it's kinda of America's game, but there's something just "right" about seeing this game played in cold weather in a large Northeast city.

They played in the Rose Bowl in 1983, so it's not unheard of. I for one think there's nothing wrong with it as is. Nothing wrong with something out of the box once in a blue moon, but keep it on the east coast for the most part.

Why is this crap on tiger rant?

I think traditions are what make CFB better than NFL. I would rather keep those traditions. But I also hate all the uniform changes and shite like that so I'm sure I'm in the minority

As one who is prior Navy I would absolutely love to more easily go to the game. But it's still better to keep it close to the service academies for the cadets' sake.
