Last Saturday was just classic with the sunshine. Everyone has the potential to put a bunch of butts in the seats and erect a giant scoreboard, but no one ... and I mean no one ... can build a backdrop like we've got with the Bridgers, Hyalite and Spanish Peaks.

Have to argue that Washington is just as pretty. Or prettier. There are only two stadiums at which you can take a boat to the game, and the other is nowhere in the league of scenic beauty that Lake Washington is.

I'd assume you're talking about Tennessee as the other boat place. UW is great on the days you can see Rainier. I guess because I know that two of the rockinest ski hills in the country are in those mountains I'm looking at adds to the atmosphere for me.

I bet you can get damn close to the Texas Longhorns stadium by boat. I just don't know why anyone would want to watch those lucky bastards play football unless you know they were playing USC or Florida and going to get ROLLED and the score was ran up on them.

My sentiments exactly.

UT's stadium has to be one of the worst in the country, no atmosphere and they have nicer highschool stadiums around Austin.

I had no idea. Good. Another reason to hate the horns.

best 1-AA: Bobcat Stadium (Although I'm partial)

Best 1-A: By far Penn State, un-frickin-believable! 110,000 people. I'm sorry Michigan, move over. Open the link below and you'll see why. The White Out vs. Norte Dame.

Pro: Well, I never been so I'll go with the odlest and the one with the most history. Lambeau Field. Also, since I moved to Portland I'm sure I'll make the 2 hour trip up to Seattle and catch a few games and I'm sure that will be awesome.

I'm gonna have to put in a vote for Autzen.

I'd love to see if Reser looks decent after the upgrade. I'd vote it the worst stadium, from an architectural standpoint, pre-Reser raise.
