Top 100 Stadium Experiences of 2016

Covers every type of sporting event, not just college football, but quite a few college stadiums are listed. Tops was Michigan at #16 followed by Washington at #20 overall.

In 2016, the writers at Stadium Journey reviewed 761 different stadium experiences. We renewed our love for many of the venues that have consistently been on our best stadiums list. We also found some new destinations that we had either not known about or previously did not appreciate as much as they may have deserved.

Don't have time to list all college stadium experience and their rank right now, on the way out the door to run errands.

It took me all the way until #3 to realize how terrible these rankings are. And Michigan as the best college football experience is almost as laughable as their write-up. Seriously, they don't say anything about the stadium or what supposedly makes it great:

"Since Jim Harbaugh's return to his alma mater as head coach there seems to be a revamped energy around Wolverine football games. With the recent ascendancy of the program, this may just be the perfect time to see a game at Michigan Stadium. The Big House and a Michigan football game should sit squarely on even the shortest list of must see venues for any sports fan. The grandiosity, history, and pure joy of a Saturday in Ann Arbor is a must for all avid stadium travelers."

Based on that, do you even think they want to the stadium?

Michigan is a fucking joke. I have had so many people tell me how quiet it is, especially when you get toward the nosebleeds, no one is even paying attention to the game.

It was based on the writers at stadium journey (whatever the fuck that is) and their 761 experiences at events.

Obviously no two people would have the same list and how many college baseball venues are ahead of even the first football one? College baseball? Really? :L

Fuck, it's the off season. Stretch articles are all we have between DUI's and other new additions to the fulmer cup race.

Seeing replies that Mich is #1, I'm not giving them a click.

Isn't scout the site that is getting shut down? So all lists by them are invalid right?

Even though I just threw a jab in, I must say number 8 is pretty damn accurate. Alex Box Stadium is the best college baseball experience in the country and it is damn exciting.

Creighton made the list. I guess a bunch of bandwagon hipster douchebags standing around in the concourse makes for a great stadium experience.

Isnt Scouts going out of business?

Great attempt for click bait for a final hail mary to try and stir up site traffic.

Husky Stadium is the tops of the list for gay men, you get scenery, ice tea and shit loads of purple. If your straight, it's not the venue for you.
