Georgetown is the best PL stadium, apparently.

Horrible list, Campbell ahead of NDSU? Outside of Montana at 1 the rest is a joke.

Anyone want to start our own FCS Top 10 Stadiums poll or something? Do it like the official AGS poll, have everyone submit ballots of what they think the top 10 stadiums are (probably don't want to do any more than that since most people haven't been to that many FCS stadium), then compile the data. I think it's probably a given that Wa-Griz and the Fargodome will be right at the top, probably 1 and 2, maybe with Bridgeforth around #3-4, but I'd be interested to see what the consensus of #4-#10 would be.

It was torn down. In 2017. Still waiting on that replacement.

We would have to classify and settle the whole #NotAStadium debate.

We would have to classify and settle the whole #NotAStadium debate.

In this instance, I would consider the field/location where any FCS team plays the majority of it's "home games", regardless of whether it's a barn, mall, giant shed, or three rows of thin metal bleachers on one side.

#4 isn’t a stadium and wouldn’t qualify for top high school field in VA.

Doesn’t need to be settled. If you have a track it isn’t a stadium. #FACT

Does this mean NDSU gets to claim ISUb, WIU, Missery State, and the Dakota Dump due to our fanbase bringing more than the away fans? xlolx

Dont forget wastewater treatment facilities

Though that is set for an upgrade next year.

WTF?!?!?!?! I feel bad for El Cid fans after seeing this.

I just barely beat you with my post, but it IS called The Dakota Dump for a reason.

Somewhere, some Richmond fan just counted their money while being mad.

You would need to clarify if we're ranking the facility itself or the experience as a whole. NDSU would be at the top for a stadium experience list, but on a straight facility list they shouldn't be anywhere near the top.

Alas like all of the things the verminite above posts about The Citadel this is untrue. Temporary stands are on the visitors side now. Field turf is being installed and fundraising for the new visitors side is underway. If vermin was building anything for its football program hundreds would know about it since that is about what the former purple hurricanes draw to a home game...

Fundraising for FUBeAR to buy Augusta National Golf Club is also “underway.”

#HalfAStadium

Is better than a whole paladin "stadium". Perhaps a move back to Si Reen, as the UpState clayeaters say, Stadium would get your average attendance up...

There’s no debate. This has already been decided. It’s how #NotAStadium came to be. xcoffeex

I feel bad for the duplicative post. But it looks like some people still want to discuss!

:)

[Outsider1]

Yep the list was pretty bad. I don't remember many positive comments originally. The bloggers did consider atmosphere, food, driving distance and/or proximity to major areas (ease of getting to), etc.. besides the actual structure. Still, many of their decisions boggled my mind. Some of those bad stadiums must have had some killer food and atmosphere.......

[Leatherneckcountry]

WIU made it inside the top 45 I'll take it.

Renovations to the DakotaDome will start this coming February and be completed before the start of the 2020 season.

I was wondering why the picture of the Butler Bowl has "CHARLOTTE" in the end zone. Oops. Should've used these pictures

How does this look any different? You sure you aren't just flushing that $27M down the ****ter into the Missouri River?

Maybe 5-ish years ago? Maybe associated with the whole #notastadium discussion? Maybe I'm off base if no one else remembers it, though. It might have started with another one of these published lists (though if I recall, it was a little better list than this one).

Horrible list, Campbell ahead of NDSU? Outside of Montana at 1 the rest is a joke.

As I pointed out in anther thread that mentioned this, it is a based on fan input and not any objective or impartial subjective input. We were 109 and besides having our visitors side gone currently, our home side facilities, pageantry, game day atmosphere, etc, blows away most other locations.

This list is seriously not worth the electrons that created it.

[Panther88]

I guess we at PV spent 61M$ on air because we are not on this list anywhere lmao!!! xlolx Duh to the clueless article creator.

[SochorField]

There used to be a thread I really enjoyed. Something like "Post Your Stadium Pics Here." It was entertaining.

The most important thing about a stadium, it that it's hosting games in December.
