So since its almost college football season what's your favorite fight song or statdium song. Last night we went to a bar in Baltimore (go O's- shut out the Yanks 5-0 last night, at the game, it was awesome...just had to throw that in) called Howl at the Moon. They had a bidding war for what song they would play next and someone dropped a C-Note for Sweet Caroline and another was dropped for the Redskins Fight song. So thats the inspiration for this thread.

Well, I'm obviously biased... :)

I don't profess to have visited them all, but I've been to a few. The Shoe must be considered in the top 10 if not top 5 for venues....it's unique and it rocks (most of the time). When TBDBITL takes the field, the electricity is palpable...if you don't feel it, then you don't have a pulse (tho some fans have been accused of that ;) ).

It's been a few years, but Camp Randall has a great band entrance, but the stadium was lacking some back then. UM has a crater. Yuck. Beaver Stadium (PSU) is pretty nice as well. Neyland Stadium, ND stadium, Tiger Stadium (aka Death Valley), Jordan-Hare, Legion Field, Sandford Stadium, The Swamp (Florida Field)...Oh yeah, and the ya got something called Kyle Field down in Corpus. :gomer:

I would rank the top five as follows:

1. ND
2. Neyland
3. The Shoe
4. Death Valley
5. Beaver/Swamp/Kyle

The Swamp is the loudest. There is no doubt about that. 40,000 drunk friends on 1 half of the stadium, and 50,000 drunk alumni on the other.

The way The Swamp is built is just made to bottle in the noise. No doubt UF wins that.

I don't know who has the best fight song, but I like, "We don't give a damn for the whole state of Michigan." :rofl:

bands: nothing comes close to most of the SWAC bands

the nebraska sea of red is cool, as is the 'shoe, LSU's death valley isn't as loud as advertised imo, it's a great experience though. kyle field is a dump however, a craptastic stadium in every sense of the word that looks like a ginormous concrete tackle box.

:cool:


The word is "FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT! for IOWA,
Let every loyal Iowan sing;
The word is "FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT! for IOWA,"
Until the walls and rafters ring (GO HAWKS!!!)
Come on and cheer, cheer, cheer, for IOWA
Come on and cheer until you hear the final gun.
The word is "FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT! for IOWA,"
Until the game is won.

If they ever run a feature on the worst, I've got some suggestions (http://www.hokiesports.com/whatsahokie.html) for them.
