Well this looks familiar.


Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.  :dunno:

Although this does make me wonder how many other training facilities out there have the exact same lobby as the BTF. hmmm...

You know what's a really surprisingly good environment? Dowdy-Ficklen Stadium at ECU. I mean they don't have permanent bleachers on all 4 sides but it's pretty legit. SB extendofam goes to games there a lot and says it's great. About the capacity of BSFS I think, and a super badass field. SB cuz had her wedding reception in their Vanier that overlooks the field and had an ice swan sculpture and it was very very badass. I don't think we've done this one before so here goes.

ECU PIRATEQHATZ



Press box seems pretty pud and the lights on that side seem very "USFL'y" but once they get that straightened out their stades will look much more legit.








No wonder they call it GREENville. Dat setting!







Now for their huupz arena. I mean talk about pud city. I went to a game there against Fairleigh-Dickinson in ninth grade and I sat in the front row and it was just insanely boring. Worst atmosphere I've ever been to? Maybe.

This things boxier than an old TV set! Amirite!




Nice Huskervision. :flush:




The voyage to what? A 6,000 seat arena?



Depressing gray seats. Hey ECU! You have the finest color on Earth! Jazz those things up and make 'em really "pop"!

I mean, I like how they have an actual wall around the field instead of goddamn exposed metal shitty guardrails with commercial signage twisty tied to it. crap.

Went to the NCSU rivalry game there a couple years ago and had a blasty-blast!!!  (ECU won).  They're fans are very passionate and take their football seriously.  The campus isn't anything to write home about but the students seem to like it there.  Definitely a party school.  They have a bar district near campus that is similar to Aggieville.  Nothing as original as what we have but still a fun place to let loose.  Greenville has a lot of attributes that remind me of Manhattan; smaller community, college town, a little out of the way from a big city atmosphere.  Absolutely gorgeous weather almost all year round!  Nice place.  Would go back.

It's the oldest stadium in FBS.  What do you expect?

They should just play in the Georgia Dome after the Falcons build their new stadium

That would conflict with GSU's schedule.

For a school full of engineers they did a pretty horrible job.  But hey, at GT "THEY CAN DO THAT!"

It's really unbelievable. Obviously they built it 900 years ago and started super small and now they have to just keep trying to cram weird add-ons wherever they can. It looks horrible. That one weird part in their End Zone Fun Zone that hangs over from the top deck and juts out further than the rest of the upper deck? LOL. Just LOL. I call it "the snaggletooth."  :D

I bet section 210 is maybe the worst seat in college football. Like, behind the video board on the hill in Lawrence probably has a better view

I love Bobby Dodd, easily my second favorite place to watch a game. Of course I'm not obsessed with cookie cutter oval stadiums like you guys seem to be. The view is so unique and the place has so much character and the ramblin wreck :love:

As recently as 1983, Ga Tech's stadium still had a track and the endzone was in the shape of a horseshoe. There is still hope for KU yet.

In 1983 SMU was claiming National Championships through certain publications and they didn't even have a home venue.  Let's face it, times have changed.  There is absolutely no hope for KU.
