When the crowd sang the National Anthem at the Boston Bruins game, it was the first sports event there after the events of the Boston Bombing and the crowd overtake the singer when he started singing it and he just let them go for it. It's super emotional and a great moment
A lot of people in the USA, including me, actually like college sports better than professional. The atmosphere is just so much more fun.
Especially in the south, with few pro teams......Alabama in particular. Possibly why Alabama and Auburn fans are so crazy. lol
Go to a Bills game. It's a wild experience.
I agree with you but here in Hockeytown (Detroit). Go to a Detroit Red Wings playoff game and the atmosphere is top-notch.
College sports bring in a very high level of skill but more fun. I agree that the atmosphere is different. I have been to games at both Lambeau Field and Camp Randall and, as much as I love my Packers, I enjoy the game experience at Badger games more. Being in the middle of Jump Around (even in the old fogey seats rather than the student section) is quite the experience.
I agree I don't even watch the NFL anymore since they started kneeling down but their games are so damn boring it always puts me to sleep before halftime but I love college football
Fun fact for the badger clips: the jump around put such a stress on the stadium, that the entire student section (the part in front of the scoreboard) had to be completely reinforced to handle the thousands jumping up and down. The buttercup clip, after about 45s the music gets cut from the stadium and the last bit is solely the crowd singing.
Wisconsin is also home to the 5th quarter. An extra 15 minutes after every home game where the band play songs (pop and fight alike) as folks leave the stadium. Shenanigans ensue.
Fun fact: The University of Central Florida's stadium is called the "Bounce House" as the fans would shake the whole stadium while jumping, same for the University of Wisconsin during the "Jump Around", it's absolutely insane.
Really? That is insane!!
@@ItsMatthewReacts Yeah, when Wisconsin renovated their stadium, they eliminated "Jump Around" due to structural concerns. That didn't sit well with the fans, and they did some quick engineering to determine it was safe. I've been there, and to Florida State for the tomahawk chop and the planting of the flaming spear at midfield, among others. I highly recommend going to a game at any of the larger universities... the game is 51%, but there's a 49% experience that you just won't find anywhere else. If you went to any stadium, walked up to any group of people, and said "hi, I'm Matthew from Sweden, and I'm lost"... You'd have BBQ, unlimited alcohol, and someone's really cute cousin within five minutes.
@@ItsMatthewReacts There is a hospital less than a block from the stadium and occasionally surgeons have to pause for a couple of minutes because some wings of the hospital shake a little during the Jump Around
@@ItsMatthewReacts Wisconsin's "Jump Around" measures as a small earthquake on the Richter scale! Consistently rated the #1 college sports town by Sport's Illustrated, USA Today, etc. If you go to a game, go there. And then you can go right over from Madison to Green Bay try to get sold out tickets...there is a 30 year wait list for season tickets and home games are always sold out...to the famed Cathedral or Football, Lambeau Stadium, which holds the 3rd most capacity of all NFL stadiums even though it is in the smallest town of just over 100k.
Play the song Sweet Caroline by Neil Diamond in any stadium in the US and that will be the reaction pretty much every time. Doesn't matter the game or the level of play (high school, university, semi pro, pro). It is so much fun and is a great thing to see and experience.
I experienced it in person for the first time for my city’s minor league baseball teams first game. It was so cool.
The shot of Auburn on the field is from the 2013 game against Alabama. ‘bama tried a field goal with one second left on the clock. It was missed and returned 109yards for an Auburn touchdown to win the game.
That was such an awesome thing to watch. Everyone likes seeing Bama get beat and that time it was done in spectacular fashion
For the record Matthew, college football games are in no way free. At some schools, students may get in free or reduce prices, but the majority of the stadium is filled with the general public who are fans of the school football program. These schools make tons of money each year off of college football, and the popularity of college football is rooted in the culture and not based on if it's free or not. The price of a ticket may depends on the school, the size of the school, and the size of the fan base, it is different in every state and every school. Stadium capacity is based on the size of the fan base and the size of the university. The smaller school in smaller states, usually don't have the huge stadiums but medium size stadiums instead, but there are some exceptions to this.
Ahhh, thank you so much for the information bro!💪
@@ItsMatthewReacts college ( what you call university ) football fans are the most rambunctious people you should check out historically black colleges and universities bands like Prairie View Agricultural and Mechanical University ( this is a HBCU battle of the bands you should review where HALFTIME IS GAMETIME : th-cam.com/video/Wvq86oLGvJw/w-d-xo.html
To give an idea of how much money there is in college football. Some schools are funded by the state they are in, thus making all their employees "public employees". The highest paid public employees aren't elected officials, or even the governor of the state. The highest paid public employees are college football coaches.
In Nebraska. Face value of a ticket is $56 usd. But that does not include the mandatory $10,000 to $100,000 donation to get get the the good seats and our boxes can cost up to $8,000,000 for 10 (and yes you still need to pay the $56 for the actual tickets)
Ticket prices at Nebraska vary. If it’s a bigger game in expectations the price per ticket is much larger.
Also, the reason no flags in the stands is they become weapons quickly.
6:45 yes. Florida State Seminoles and Florida Gators are a very big rivalry.
as a sounders and seahawks fan, im from seattle and the seattle stadium has the loudest recorded crowd in sports history at 136.6 db
Life long South Carolina Gamecock here. Nothing like college football Saturday's. The tailgating, the food & drinks, then into the stadium to watch our team along with 86,000 of the best friends a guy could have!
Damn that just sounds like the best time you could ever have man!
This happens every weekend across the United States.
Best MLB manager ejections is always a good one to react to.
Will check it out for sure man!
The biggest crowd to a College Football game was 150K. It was played at Bristol Motor Speedway. The NFL record is around 105K.
15:35 "114 Thousand, WTF?!" Yeah, that is the University of Michigan's Stadium called "The Big House" and it is currently the biggest American Football stadium in the U.S.
I say currently because every decade someone either renovates or just makes a bigger stadium from scratch, and then Michigan does another renovation to be them out again LOL The Big House is an amazing stadium. It's a massive bowl shaped stadium that is actually built into the ground. From the outside it doesn't seem that huge/tall, and then you go in and realize it goes down! I went there as a kid, it was larger than life.
Absolutely INSANE! These stadiums are for real mind blowing, I have probably done 5 videos just on college stadiums and I cannot get enough, they are just so f*cking cool!!
The Florida Gators and the Florida State Seminoles are indeed rivals. They play in different conferences, but also play each other every year. Both teams have had years of greatness and years of awfulness, lol, but both are great schools that are surprisingly hard to get in to and both have big fan bases.
The Iowa Hawkeyes stadium is next to a Children's Hospital where seriously ill children get care. The fans make an effort to send messages to the children overlooking the stadium. Gut wrenchingly moving!
Michigan fan here. The big house aka Michigan stadium is the biggest stadium in all of America. The vibes that we give are absolutely different 💪🏻
Loved your reaction. You get this atmosphere even at the middleschool and highschool level here in Texas at times. Sports area huge part of not just our culture here, but have shaped our history more than you can even imagine. You should watch or react to the movie "Remember the Titans". You won't be disappointed!
I got so hyped as a Tennessee Vols fan when Rocky Top played.
Also if you do another video you should find a clip of when Tennessee beat Alabama.
Fun thing about that FSU crowd of 82,000 people. The entire population of the town where the university is (and the game is played) is only 193,000 and you have to drive 150 miles to find a larger town. Everyone is at the home games.
PS: yes, the University of Florida Gators are our rivals. Basically any college football team with Orange in their colors are our rivals. lol.
For context in the bruins clip, just days before the Boston marathon bombing happened, over 200 people were injured and tragically 3 people lost there lives including an 8 year old boy, this was the first major gathering after the bombing.
Go Vols!!!! Rocky Top, you'll always be home sweet home to me. Good Ole Rocky Top, Rocky Top Tennessee
2:20. "This is loud" arrowhead stadium says....hold my beer!
Some of these entrances where people are jumping actually register on the Richter Scale for "earthquakes". We take our college football very seriously.
Thanks for posting Matthew, it's a part 2 to video also.
Oh really? I need to see that! Part 1 was FIRE!
Wisconsin during "Jump Around" will actually register as a 3 plus Richter scale earthquake on sensors in the area
In the NFL Bills fans are wild, Browns, Packers, and Lions fans are die hard loyal, and Chiefs fans are the loudest.
Florida State University's mascot is the Seminole Indians. A tribe of native Americans who give the school "permission" to use their name and chants in their games. They love being included in the school. The University of Florida's mascot is the "Gator", short for alligator. And yes, they are somewhat rival teams. The other large university in Florida are the University of Miami Hurricanes.
U of Oregon football "Shout" from Animal House.... how do\id they miss that? Another Sweet Caroline.... Fenway Park!
If you can try and find a clip of the Pittsburgh Steelers defense (NFL) after the song Renegade is played it usually results in some kind of huge play for the Steelers
🤣 Utah State. Good on ‘em! I’m a BYU diehard and I know those Aggies can rep no doubt.
Even more trivia: john denver's country road song was very popular but he never stepped foot in west virginia.There are over 300 college baseball teams , 250 college football teams 350 basketball teams and those are just division 1 level.
That’s not true. He sung country roads when before WVU’s first game at the current Mountaineer field. If you’re talking about prior to that then you may be right.
th-cam.com/video/Plndo6Rie7E/w-d-xo.html
Yes he did. He even helicoptered into the stadium and performed the song live before a game. ???
You should check out more on the Portland Timbers, MLS Soccer team with a fanbase known as the best, very European based, and we also have the best rivalry in the MLS
If you are looking to hype damn near any crowd of drunks, Sweet Caroline is your golden ticket.
Louisiana State University has 40,000 students. The LSU football stadium holds 100,000+ fans.
What sometimes bothers me is how rare it is that Notre Dame shows up in videos like this. I get how much they're not liked in some circles though, and I agree: I'm surrounded by some arrogant fans of my Dad's school on Facebook. But the fight song is epic and the 1812 Overture segment is amazing. (Another good one, come to think of it, is the 'Navy Blue and Gold' tradition from the Naval Academy. Funny thing, that's their alma mater but it was our high school's fight song -- our arrangement was a lot peppier than the original.)
I really wish these types of videos would show the Army-Navy game, just how unique it is in college football.
College football and college sporting events in general are something truly American. It’s hard to describe being at a football game surround by 105000 fans cheering and sing the alma mater.
Hey man, if you ever get to the US make sure to come to Wisconsin in December and I’ll make sure to get you to a Green Bay packer game. You’ll never experience any tailgate party or sport venue better
For my university it was small with lower costs: students got in for free and could purchase up to 2 tickets at reduced price of $25 for family/friends but normally went for $45+. At Ohio State University (where my dad and sister went) student tickets were $35 and regular price tickets generally went for $60+ a game. You do have to factor in how much you want to spend inside the stadium as well, as alcohol is not allowed to be brought in (although my grandfather disguised whiskey by putting it in a doctor's urinary cup); generally its about $8 to $10 for 475ml beer, $10 for nachos, etc
Also the total attendance of universities in America is a lot higher but most people are local fans or alumni. You have to realize the state of Ohio has more people than the whole country of Sweden (11.6mil vs 10.2mil)
Dude... the whole planet lives on Nicklas and dimes.... America.... we live life
Havent seen anyone say this yet but college football game days are amazing. You wake up, go to a big ass lot or field filled with people cooking amazing food and getting hammered by 2. Then all this stuff you're seeing happens lol.
Sounds like a real good time!!
Hey, Americans take their sports seriously. Sweet Caroline was a huge song by Neil Diamond, huge!!! In a lot of ways College Football is bigger than the Pros.
This is for you my best friend, miss you 😔 Roll tide roll!!!!
That Texas A&M stadium can fit 105,000 fans
Remember AMATEUR ATHLETES @ COLLEGES & UNIVERSITIES FOOTBALL
Been to Penn State games..we tailgate before the game by our cars. Grill drink beer and party before the game!
I like how Pitt didnt have an attendance listed lmao
Because of their empty seats, lol #EatShitPitt
The sound is like going to a rock concert. You really need ear plugs
A big reason why the colleges have a lot of fans is because a lot of them are located in big cities. Ohio State Is in Columbus, Texas in Austin, etc. some like Tennessee are located near big cities. Sometimes, people just travel.
Actually, it's kind of the opposite. Most of the big schools are in places where there isn't professional sports nearby. Since pro sports are harder to get to from these places, college sports fills the void.
The 3rd weekend in October this year University of Tennessee made enough NOISE a Small EARTHQUAKE was registered!!! GO VOLS!!
Pshh...every time Wisconsin does "Jump Around" it measures as earthquake on the Richter scale.
College sports are bigger than professionals in the US. Total amount of people in the stands and also by the plain loyalty of the fans. The largest college football stadiums hold about 30,000 more people than the largest NFL stadiums.
There's a picture of me at 6 months old at a game.
It's almost as big as friday nights!
A college football game in the states is something special. Highly recommend.
I know I’m commenting a year after the video was posted, but “the orchestra” comment hurt my former marching band member heart (did it in high school and in college at the University of South Carolina) 💔
They skipped LSU TIGER STADIUM, the loudest stadium in the country. The noise has caused earthquakes
The pittsburgh panther sweet carolina song is an old 60's neil diamond song.
Actually checked it out, really nice song, gives kinda christmas vibes imo😃
The San Diego State basketball student section is simply called The Show. Best fans in college basketball.
Glad you got so hyped for this my friend. The biggest college (american) football event is bigger than any European football event by a large number, which they are afraid to admit. Americans take sports way more seriously than most believe, especially soccer/football.
Fun Fact: this biggest stadium in the USA is the Michigan Wolverines they sit at 107,601 seats, which is always full. It’s practically impossible to get a ticket at any point 3 days before a match.
Stey stopped the "tomahawk chop " someone deemed it to be raceist.
That was Part 1 !!! Families, students, alumni …it’s a full day out!! I wish they showed the tailgates and post-game parties at the frat/sorority houses lmao 🤣
The thumbnail that popped up at the end for part 2 is the Battle of Bristol which holds the record for most attendance at a football game at 157k. It was at Bristol motor speedway, a nascar track
Unlike at European stadiums usually 90% or more of the fans are there for the home team. It makes for a more unified vibe. College football in basketball though definitely have the most tradition and pageantry associated with them all of our sports.
To my knowledge, flags arent allowed in most US sports stadiums because they could be used as "weapons". Thats america for you.
There is a go pro 360 degree video on TH-cam or the Ohio State Band doing their school song and coming out of the tunnel. They are known for their “script” OHIO with the dot on the “i”. The precision is amazing to watch and the camera is on the sousaphone player who dots the i. Never thought I’d think a school band entrance would be as cool as it was.
“Never heard Sweet Caroline before” *record scratch*
Neil Diamond, do yourself a favor friend.
Yeah man I started listening to it and he has a lot of good songs! It's amazing how much you can learn and get inspired from other cultures
An interesting one to react to is the most famous sports curses.MLB loudest home runs.
it cause were all Americans at the end of the day even if we aren't rooting for the same teams. We're all on the same team at the end of the day Americans.
Biggest college stadiums or best entrances
Well, i can't speak for the rest of the country, but in my part of Texas the Highschool Football gets pretty crazy too.
The guy with the goose! WHAT A FUCKING LEGEND!!!!
In Texas they are high school stadiums with morenthan 50k persons capacity … how crazy is that. High school!
Yes the Seminoles ans Gators are one of the biggest rivalries!!! And there's a part 2 to this video.
I must check that out!
Not as big as Michigan-OSU. The atmosphere at that game (The Game) is ELECTRIC.
Florida, Florida State, & Miami are rivals.
I went to Grand Canyon University , should look up the basketball games and the Havocs. I dislike basketball but damn it was crazy.
if you play Sweet Caroline at a West Virginia game they will chant (EAT SHIT PITT )
Sweet Caroline….. EAT SHIT PITT!!!!
They played it when College Gameday was there
They typically don’t allow flagpoles in college football stadiums
Understand another thing. At all these stadiums and arenas in America alcohol is sold without restrictions. The amount you drink is up to you, and there are rarely altercations or issues. Believe it or not, there are some high school stadiums in America that seat close to 20,000. I think it's safe to say that football is big in my country. High school football is generally played on Friday's. So, the babies play on Friday's, the boys play on Saturday's, and the men on Sunday's.
When I was in middle school we played on Thursday, so it was five straight days of Football. Middle School Thursday, High School Friday, College Saturday, NFL Sunday, Monday Night NFL on Monday.
South Carolina #1 Tennessee #2 so proud of my two home states
Hence forth, the Florida gators will be known as the "Crocodile Team." So sayeth the Swede!
Check out college football fans if you want to see some serious fans!
I am on it, thanks a lot for the tips Johanna, have a great Super Bowl! 😎
6:50 yeah florida gators are rivals with Florida state pretty much every state has their own big in state rivalries
This year there was a new one. University of Michigan sang Mr. Brightside after all their wins. And if you thought TN was loud? LSU's home stadium triggered an earthquake once and Seattle Seahawks did so twice.
There's a difference between triggered an earthquake and was picked up by seismographers. The loudest stadium in the country is GEHA Field at Arrowhead in Kansas City, Missouri.
Hello again Matthew, can you react to NASCAR's Craziest Finishes by NR62, it's a little over 12 minutes long. Also the WORST NASCAR CRASHES EVER, by Car Crash Central. Thanks
Two major universities in my home state of Washington are the Huskies of the University of Washington and my favorite college team is the Washington State Cougars! GO COUGS!!!!
The baltimore orioles(named after the state bird of maryland)is during the post season play off normally baseball games are nowhere near that energetic.BTW 47K for an nfl game is low and nothing for a college football game but is very big for MLB game.Baltimore only has two teams, the orioles(MLB) and the ravens(NFL) more trivia the ravens were named after the poem the raven by poe who was born in baltimore.If the city is big it will have all the major sport leagues and sometimes two,NYC chicago and LA have two MLB teams.MLB teams will usually have their city letter not the team letter on their caps-LA for dodger, NY for yankees ,B for red sox.
Man I really appreciate all of your comments, they are always so informative, really like to learn about these kind of things! Really cool of you! You must be a big sport enthusiast concidering you know so much trivia about all teams, any specific ones that you think are more interesting than others?
@@ItsMatthewReacts Its a loaded question you like what you grew up with , if you grew up in the chicagoland area, you like chicago teams, if you grew up in wisconsin you like wisconsin teams and so on.I mostly deal with baseball so I would recommend the NY yankees the most successful and one of the richest sport teams in the world.You may have seen people wearing that NY cap its become for some reason fashionable now, and one of the oldest the chicago cubs.
You asked about the Seminoles and the Gators of Florida. Yes it is the biggest rivalry in the state.
It’s our national anthem guy lol
Sporting events in American are only 1/2 about the game, it’s an experience
8:02 the person who created this video got the name wrong. The name of the song is War Chant. And it is authentically the chant that the Seminole tribe would use to get themselves ready for war.
THINK OF EACH OF THE 50 STATES AS A COUNTRY TOGETHER AS THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!! EACH UNIQUE YET UNITED!!!!
Minnesota Vikings you should look up their home games the chant is something next level
React to college football - marching band Ohio State
To answer your question Yes the Florida State Seminoles are the in-state rival of the Florida Gators 🤣 And if they could both lose that game that would be great. war eagle!
Is Florida state Seminole rival Florida state crocodiles? Lol!!!!
6:41 yes and they hate each other greatly and I live in Florida
Wisconsin regularly made the top 5 of rankings for top party schools. They finally started being excluded from the rankings because they were winning too much. They are very much an "Underdog" team in that they their teams are never ranked very highly but always do well.
Ohh wow! Well they really got some insane chants going on!
Yeah, I'm an Illinois alum, so a border state rival to Wisconsin, and you're not going to have a bad time at a Wisconsin game. It's basically a few hundred thousand Germans that decided to brew beer, cook bratwurst, and put chicks in miniskirts when the northern lights are out. You could spend a Saturday in a worse place.
As far as party schools, they stopped ranking Wisconsin as "we don't rank professionals with amateurs." 😎
COUNTRY ROADS!!!!!!!
