That stadium is awesome. I wonder if UPenn's dominant Sprint team plays there?

That's a very nice stadium. Though I do have a couple notes:

1. Those lights must be 2 feet above the top of whatever quaker is unfortunate enough to sit under them.
2. Track
3. Crummy video/scoreboard, though it is a #family scoreboard so kudos there.
4. Those lower level seats that extend past the endzone on their EndzoneFunzone side must be about the worst seats in the college football.
5. I know they're bad for sightlines, but I find those old stadiums with steel beems supporting the upper deck and obstructing views charming.

they should take the scoreboard off of that beautiful old building too.

They have the track for Penn Relays and Franklin Field is the oldest NCAA football stadium. There since 1895 and they had the first scoreboard ever. The Eagles use to play there a long time ago as well. My sister graduated from Penn and the commencement was at Franklin Field. Former President Carter gave the commencement speech. Excellent school and a lot of history. Not in the nicest part of Philly, but prestigious as any other university in the nation.

Damn! He trippin' so hard fans are gonna think he done fell off!

Nice work MS. I love these old stadiums. We're headed to the bowl game in two weeks. I might have to map out the route to see if anything worthwhile to check out on the way.

JFK gave this speech at Rice Stadium.

C- effort here as we didn't make it Houston. NTSU new stadium in Denton has huge wind fans at the south end?

Agreed. I have a friend who's job right now has him in Nashville for a few years, and he can't wait to go back to Houston. I can't for the life of me understand that line of reasoning. Nashville >>> Houston

I would never be friends with a Houston person, I just hold myself to a higher standard I guess
