My home town's high school football stadium had 3 tiers of parking like SD Mines. Stanberry, Missouri, on the East side of town. The city pool is at the top of the hill, so after 2-a-days the football team would run up the hill and into the pool.
Just wane to add. Division II football CIAA conference... Livingstone College has a baby blue field. Its an HBCU in Salisbury, NC and from my experience.. no matter what content I shoot.. it always looks depressive even with natural light. The color really fw cameras
The Alamodome is the only stadium in the United States built to accommodate a 110-yard football field as the CFL was discussing expanding into the US when it was being built.
Amazing to think, because it fit a full 150-yard CFL field (including endzones), which is 25% larger than a 120-yard NFL field, not to mention the width difference. But I'm pretty sure that the subsequent renovations have eliminated that excess capacity in order to bring the fans permanently closer to the field.
I'm surprised Nippert wasn't in this video. It's quite literally at the heart of UC's campus and students can literally walk into all hours of the day. Take a nap, kick field goals on the field, or study in the seats. It's very unique. Even some of the exits for the on-campus doctor's office and clinics go right through the stadium offices and back rooms.
NMU's wooden dome is phenomenal. When I visited, the field wasn't set up for football, but the structure is vast. (We went there for the pool) Magnificent structure. ( Fun, and/or strange, fact Northern Michigan University is in Marquette, Michigan, while Marquette University is in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. )
Going to NMU, there is a roller that can roll the entire astroturf and reveal the track and field layout. This is also what happens when we do the graduation ceremonies
Back in the late 90's you could walk into Bridgeport stadium (James Madison University) with no ticket, just your school ID card, I think we called it a JAM card at the time. We weren't good then. Amazing how fast we went from lowly DI-AA school to full blown D-I.
JAC. JMU Access Card. Even then, we had great crowds. Once they tear down the last of the old stadium bleachers, the stands will look uniform. Go Dukes.
The Liberty Bowl in Memphis,as well: you have an otherwise excellent video. Almost 60 years old, on an entertainment complex not far from the University. Similar to Ryan Field ( the Bowl would have been the only one on this list that I've seen, if it were included) except for no upper deck. One of the largest single-deck stadiums in the US at 55-60,000 capacity it looks like a huge blue spider. Unique.
Playing my college ball in Arkansas, I always thought Henderson State was unique. New Mexico State could be on this list as well. Thanks for the video. I love stadiums.
I worked on Colorado States stadium when it was being built, it’s not out in the middle of nowhere like you said, it’s literally right in the center of the college campus and close walking distance to everything. Cool video though
University of Idaho alum here. The college was offered an enormous amount of money by a beer company to be able to paint the roof to look like one of their beer cans. The college turned it down, fearing it would cause more drinking by the students. The Kibbie Dome does look like a partially buried beer/soda can.
Houston Baptist University also has an odd stadium with no sway seating. I’ve also been to many games at the Alamodome and I’m not a fan. It’s got crammed seating and many spots with a surprisingly obstructed view.
The Superior Dome shape is more due to the amount of snow that that part of Michigan gets. It can get hundreds of inches of snow. It’s also right on Lake Superior which gets brutal brutal winds
I was surprised that Winston-Salem State's stadium wasn't on here. Instead of being surrounded by a track & field track, it is surrounded by an actual racetrack. It is an active racetrack that sees late model automobiles racing there on off weekends.
Phoenix,Az had a stadium called Montgomery Stadium. It was built for Phoenix Union High School in the 30s and was in use up until the early 80s when PUHS shut down. It was like Murray State but larger with one grandstand accommodating 23,000. It hosted the Salad Bowl back in the 40s and 50s. Demolished in 86 or 87. Worth looking at it if you like forgotten stadiums.
The University of Denver had a football stadium where the Broncos used to play Exhibition football games during their days in the AFL. The reason, was that the Denver Bears of the American Association (baseball) had control of Bears Stadium/Mile High Stadium until September. University of Denver Stadium sat around 31,000 people and was almost identical to the football stadium on Cornell University's campus. The stadium at Denver University has since been torn down.
I think I remember the stadium once known as Bears Stadium (before it would become Mile High Stadium). It would eventually be a temporary home for the Colorado Rockies before the Rockies would move into its own home field (Coors Field)
Yeah, I have season tickets and sit in the 2nd level - great sight-lines! For many years though I sat in the upper deck (first row), and the view was good there too - and not just of the game, but I could see the dome of the National Shrine several miles away in DC!
You need to consider Rynearson Stadium in Ypsilanti, MI (home to Eastern Michigan University). Their field is all gray, and, if you watch a game of theirs on TV, you would swear that you're watching in Black and White.
I agree that Eastern Michigan, Weber St, San Jose St, Northern Illinois, University Louisiana Lafayette, Houston Baptist College, New Mexico St, Appalachian State, Stony Brook, Duquesne, UTEP, Texas A&M Kingsville, Northern Arizona, Portland State, Colgate, Purdue, SEMO St, and William & Mary are all weird looking or odd designs and configurations.
East Tennessee state university has a twin dome to Idaho state. They built a new outdoor stadium about 10 years ago. The dome seating was built at a wrong angle leaving the bottom row about 15 feet off the ground and the sidelines under it. Horrible for watching football. If you sit 10 or 15 rows up you cannot see the near sideline at all.
It’s nuts in many ways. The sidelines are sort of dugouts as the stands are really close to being on top of the field. That’s its best feature. They hang the goalposts from the curve of the roof… one of the most awkward design features I’ve ever seen. There have to have been field goal attempts that have hit the roof before reaching the posts. You can’t walk around it inside. What passes for concourses doesn’t leave a lot of room for fans at halftime. Definitely a curiosity, but I haven’t been planning trips to Poky for several years now.
I've been to the SD Mines stadium in Rapid City. You still need a ticket to access the drive-in section, but it's still really cool. May I recommend adding LaVell Edwards Stadium in Provo, Utah? The stadium itself isn't too uncommon, but the views of the mountains on the east side and the lake on the west are REALLY cool.
I was attending NMU when the Superior Dome was being built. It's a very interesting stadium! They open it up in the winter months so people can walk around the inside parameter.
I've been in northwestern stadium my nephew was 2nd string running back i went to all his home games, away games and his bowl games, I also seen the Maryland stadium he played against that school too he also played in 4 bowl games he won 3 of those bowl game played in the big ten championship he on the list for the longest running TD in the big ten championship he ran for 75 yard again Ohio state on his first carry. I seen the Murray state stadium I was at siuc southern Illinois University of Carbondale we played them my first year 2 years later I transferred to University of Kentucky.
My Dad played on Northwesterns Rose Bowl team in '49. He took me to many games there. He also spent his freshman year at Purdue, where he was roommates with John McKay. They both left after that year. McKay weny on to coach USC. When they came to Evanston, we went onto the field to speak with McKay. He then brought OJ Simpson over to meet us. The Cats were terrible then, but boy did I get to see some awesome visiting teams!
You need to fact check your info on CSU's stadium. You show a picture of Hughes Field which was torn down, Canvas Stadium is in town. Either way, not much football is played there.
I'm surprised you didn't mention the weird set of seats at the open end zone of Ryan Field at Northwestern. One whole section is angled slightly more towards the end zone rather than the middle of the field.
I love that stadium. I love looking at the old pictures when it was 30,000 seats. Was last there in 08 when ASU played Georgia. The walkway had been removed.
I was the mascot at University of Central Arkansas for 2 years. The football games were always the highlight of working for them. The purple and gray is just too cool.
I went to northern Michigans stadium and it is a really cool place, and it home to one NFL player Joe Berger a center who used to start for the Minnesota Vikings.
Robert Saleh, New York Jets' current head coach played at Northern Michigan University in the late 1990s. As well as Matt LaFleur who coached Northern Michigan University's quarterbacks early in his career.
@5:34 i think you were confusing their old and new stadium, that stadium picture in the middle of countryland is their old stadium, their new stadium is in the middle of campus
No dislike for the Indiana State University football field? Built in a strange spot massively away from campus, seating on just one side, odd parking. But, to be fair, ISU has been upgrading the whole campus over the years. A new football stadium within walking distance is in the works.
@@jamespyle777 Honestly, once the new football stadium is built, I'd like to see ISU put in a nice baseball stadium with better amenities than Warn Field. (Maybe a step below Victory Field in Indy?) An Olympic-grade velodrome would be nice, too.
The weirdest stadium I’ve personally seen was one in a small town in Nebraska. The school plays 8 man ball. The the endzones are configured Northwest-Southeast and the field has such a massive crown that it looks like they put it on top of hill, it’s also squeezed between the track and the discus range.
I was wondering why they don't look so familiar to me. I'm from Escanaba Michigan an hour south of Marquette Michigan where the superior Dome is. And by an hour I mean it depends on how many state cops are on 41 heading north or if you take 35 you can pretty much go as fast as you want once you take that left out of Trenary
Nice selection, but you did err big time on Colorado State's stadium....pictured is the old Hughes Stadium not the one built in 2017. So it makes me wonder what other errors in other stadiums featured.
i’ve been to the alamodome for UIL competitions and it’s pretty cool also you forgot about that it was also the home of the saints for a coupe weeks during katrina
@@funkyflashman when I was at NMU we called it the nipple of the UP 🤣 that place can get really loud and the acoustics are something. I was in the marching band and it took some getting used to when playing in there my freshman year.
I'm a little surprised Center Parc Stadium, home of the Georgia State Panthers, didn't make the list. The stadium was formerly Turner Field, home of the Atlanta Braves. And before that it was Centennial Olympic Stadium. So there's a lot of sports history there, but only some of it is related to college football. I've been there and had a perfectly nice time. But it is rather obvious that the stadium was not originally designed for football.
While I’m sitting in 72 degree comfort in the Kibbie Dome rooting for the Vandals, eight miles away in Pullman, Washington State fans are freezing their butts off in cold, sleet, and snow. There’s No Place Like Dome!
Boise State used to get away from playing all games w/blue uniforms, but their conference forced them to wear contrasting tops for conference games. Too much of an advantage blending in w/the field.
This is crazy,some of these small capacity stadiums,my high school just outside of Atlanta held 23,000 people and it was sold out on Friday nights!!Football is huge in metro Atlanta,even at the high school level
Yeah the high school I went to here in Texas in DFW area seated a grand total of 36,000 with another 4,000 expandable on each end if necessary for playoffs and state championships and host D2 college football games. Yet some of these schools are D1AA or D1A. Really? In the Mid-Atlantic to Southeast and Gulf-Coast states to Southwest and Mid-South to lower Midwest to Southern states there is no excuse that D1AA or D1A or even NAIA schools have football stadiums smaller than high schools in same areas. That shouldn’t happen unless it’s a state with low population density or is a metropolis like NYC or LA and so compact have no choice but to downsize to make room for living and such.
I’ve played a hs game on the feild in SD and I don’t like the drive in side because there are tons of drunk old guys 15 away from the away sideline yelling at you and honking their cars
You totally missed the mark on the Colorado State University football stadium. Hughes Stadium was the oval stadium built into a hole. It has been replaced by Canvas Stadium. Hughes Stadium was about5 miles west of campus. It has since been torn down and the land returned to a more natural state. Canvas Stadium opened a few years ago and is on the campus of Colorado State University. They are completely different shapes. The seating at Canvas Stadium is parallel to the field, not oval. I can’t believe you missed that with your pictures showing completely different stadiums and printing on the seats. Major gaffe!
These shoulda made the list: Rynearson Stadium Eastern Michigan in Ypsilanti. Called the Factory. Gray turf. Largest capacity stadium in the MAC with the lowest attendance. Waldo Stadium Western Michigan Kalamazoo Waldo was built on the side of a hill. Next to the bleachers, fans can sit in the grass too...
FYI, you've got two Colorado State stadiums confused. The one out in nature was the old one, Hughes Stadium. It's now demolished. Canvas Stadium, the new one, is in the middle of campus. Huge bummer, because Hughes was built right up against the mountains and was one of the cooler venues in college football. Canvas sucks.
The famous TH-cam family the Shaytards has filmed videos there I've seen one of their vlogs where Gavin played his last High School football game for his Senior Year
If thr Seahawks ever played at Boise or Eastern Washington, in those grotesque Highway Dept. color uniforms, epileptics might have a seizure looking at it...🙄
Was scrolling to see that someone spoke the "truth," I called a Ferris-Northern game on the radio, where the Bulldogs had an uninspired performance against the Wildcats in their first visit to the Dome. Old College Field, Northern's old home stuck around several years until the Berry Events Center was opened in the fall of '99.
That South Dakota stadium with the drive-up area to watch the game from is a pretty cool feature to be honest.
I agree. Back in the day I loved drive-in movies. Drive in sports is way better.
My home town's high school football stadium had 3 tiers of parking like SD Mines. Stanberry, Missouri, on the East side of town. The city pool is at the top of the hill, so after 2-a-days the football team would run up the hill and into the pool.

The San Antonio Texans did play there in 1995, the final season of the CFL's attempt to have US teams from 1993 to 1995.
Sam Boyd Stadium also was able to handle the CFL sized field because it was/still is U Shaped.
@@jtsholtod.79 The Alamodome still haves the movable seats.
They can play baseball in there too!

When it comes to CSU, you are talking about two different stadiums. Hughes Stadium is demolished, Canvas is in the city of Fort Collins.
I was just thinking that too. They showed Hughes Stadium. Maybe this guy needs to do a little research.
Agreed, Hughes was demolished about 4 years ago. It was near the foothills and Canvas is on campus.
Nice catch. That's the old stadium.
I was about to comment until I saw your comment ruined the whole video for me because he clearly doesn’t know what he is talking about.
CSU 😂
I wouldn't say Holt Arena is in the wilderness. It's surrounded by a bunch of houses, an interstate, and the ISU campus.
Lol the thumbnail is the Yooper dome as we call it here. Everyone else calls it the Superior dome. Nice to see my hometown on TH-cam.

Seeing Roos Field in person isn't too bad. For whatever reason it looks a lot brighter in pictures or on tv.
Makes you wonder if any of the punters in those wierd dome stadium, try to hit the ceiling in practice or warmups
The superior dome I hit the speaker in a high school game punting they made us re kick.
@@GamblersUnknown should have hit it again, to test yourself
Another weird thing about Holt Arena is that the fan seating actually extends over the players area on the sidelines

You missed Simon Fraser University stadium and also the former Franklin & Marshall College Stadium
The stadiums that have different colored playing surfaces don't have them painted. It's custom ordered artificial turf.
I think the strangest stadium of them all is life.
Went to Bridgeforth this past year. It was definitely unique. Still had a great time though
Clicked on this just because of the Yooper dome
I used to teach ROTC at NMU and we did PT in the mornings in this dome. Had a nice running track around the edge but it got dry as anything in there.
I went there for my sister's graduation back in 08
You totally missed the mark on the Colorado State University football stadium. Hughes Stadium was the oval stadium built into a hole. It has been replaced by Canvas Stadium. Hughes Stadium was about5 miles west of campus. It has since been torn down and the land returned to a more natural state.
Canvas Stadium opened a few years ago and is on the campus of Colorado State University. They are completely different shapes. The seating at Canvas Stadium is parallel to the field, not oval. I can’t believe you missed that with your pictures showing completely different stadiums and printing on the seats. Major gaffe!
Make your own video then, tough guy....
@@kevinbushracing58 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Definitely a blunder.
Should look into West Texas A&M stadium. Bain-Schaeffer Buffalo Stadium. And then Happy State Bank Stadium
east tennessee state university once had, (or maybe still does) a mini dome built before the astro dome, in johnson city tenn
These shoulda made the list:
Rynearson Stadium Eastern Michigan in Ypsilanti. Called the Factory. Gray turf. Largest capacity stadium in the MAC with the lowest attendance.
Waldo Stadium
Western Michigan Kalamazoo
Waldo was built on the side of a hill. Next to the bleachers, fans can sit in the grass too...
They need to take that tarp off the top. Hope the fans start coming after this season's success.
Missed Eastern Michigan for weird turf. The all grey makes watching games tough
How about the Sombrero at New Mexico State University?
saw my cousin graduate at holt arena and play at EWU, both were kinda neat
When I was driving by Albertsons stadium I saw a smaller stadium with red turf!
What about the Syracuse stadium?
Is this the same narrator from Night Time Spooks?
That south Dakota ones cool with the drive up area.
Ryan field doesn’t even have permanent floodlights 🙌🔥😎
FYI, you've got two Colorado State stadiums confused. The one out in nature was the old one, Hughes Stadium. It's now demolished. Canvas Stadium, the new one, is in the middle of campus. Huge bummer, because Hughes was built right up against the mountains and was one of the cooler venues in college football. Canvas sucks.
2:17 Go Eags baby!! The Inferno is just beautiful🔥🔥🔥
Appreciate the video!!
Weirdest? Perhaps the definition of such word should've been consulted before making the video. lol
Johnson C smith D2.. is another weird shaped college football stadium similar to Murray state ..
Northern Michigans Superior Dome looks identical to Northern Arizona’s Walkup Skydome.
What about northern Arizona?
The famous TH-cam family the Shaytards has filmed videos there I've seen one of their vlogs where Gavin played his last High School football game for his Senior Year
East Tennessee State University had a dome for football and basketball back in the day.
You forgot the Carrier Dome in Syracuse
It isn't weird by any means.
i like how you just jump right into the content you don’t take a whole 5 minutes to advertise shit and tell people to like and subscribe
I always wanted to play in the kibbie dome so I did in ncaa every 1st game of the season lol
BSU excellent stadium end zone seats are great.
Dude, how could you not include Center Parc Stadium in Atlanta???
I got some new glasses earlier in the week and I already have a scratch on them.
Colorado State has a new stadium that is a few years old. Your vid needed to be updated before it was published.
If thr Seahawks ever played at Boise or Eastern Washington, in those grotesque Highway Dept. color uniforms, epileptics might have a seizure looking at it...🙄
Oregon and Oregon State both wore bright colors this year. Imagine that game at either of those two turf fields.
I had no idea you were gonna say Murray state lol. I thought you were gonna go Indiana state
At 1:10 ...Idaho University in Moscow is very much in the news today...
The Superior Dome opened in August of 1991.
Was scrolling to see that someone spoke the "truth," I called a Ferris-Northern game on the radio, where the Bulldogs had an uninspired performance against the Wildcats in their first visit to the Dome. Old College Field, Northern's old home stuck around several years until the Berry Events Center was opened in the fall of '99.
The Superior Dome is very cool!
