Stadiums

[Bogtrotter07]

his brother committed to Villanova for the class of 2012. Seriously BG's stadium is better than probably every MAC school.

Better than the Rubber Bowl? Doyt L Perry Stadium? THE GLASSBOWL?

Them's fightin' words!!!

it aint half bad for a HS in NV though!

Doyt L Perry Stadium is actually pretty ok! I have driven by it a good few times and would love to go to a game there, i do imagine everyone arriving in Combine Harvesters though

Doyt has had some nice renovations to it....Toledo could use some. I went to Ball State for a Toledo game a few years back (awesome game...UT won and we let everyone know it). Ball State was a pretty cool stadium..small but really nice.

That is because that is the only mode of transportation there! You ain't lived until you have seen the national tractor pulls, (right there of all places)! I live half way between Perry and the Glass bowl. They have done a nice job with the Glass Bowl lately. My grandpa was superintendent on the WPA project that put that original structure in. (All the Zoo buildings, U-Hall additions, and other stone face buildings, Libbey, Tucker, etc.)

I was just kidding about the comments earlier, that Bishop Gorman stadium is pretty incredible!

I remember Ball State to be competent, no frills. Haven't been there in years, good that some of the schools are making improvements. Rubberbowl sucks! Just kidding. It may be the biggest MAC stadium at just under 40k. The only one I haven't been in is Buffalo's; because they are a later addition to the MAC. Even though Marshal came and went after my time we used to play them all the time.

Hope his dad has a few bucks left over. Villanova's stadium could use a serious facelift.

BSU's Scheumann Stadium isn't big, but looks good now.

 

[dublinirish]

i love these little stadiums. ever see wyoming's one with the trees behind the endzone?

 

[Bogtrotter07]

That is exactly what I mean; you go Buster!

 

[KyfightingIrish36]

Lets just make a MAC stadium thread.

 

[scUM Hater]

Difference is that Bishop Gorman has more fans in the stands than a MAC game does.

I am more interested in discussing Cricket Stadiums. Like this one is one of my favorites.

Where's the endzone? lol

The whole outer circle is the endzone. You hit the ball and it flies out to the endzone without touching the ground (like a homerun) then it is 6 points. If it touches the ground and reach the endzone (like a single, double or triple) then it is 4 points.

I am not a fan of test series but the one day internationals have an innings cap so it is much more fun, kinda like baseball. You can immediately tell where baseball originates from.

Learned all of this from a friend from Pakistan. He was a cricket fanatic.

Such a field would make soccer much more enjoyable. Put four goals at opposite ends, each team has to defend two of them. It'd get wild.

Oh my god. 50-50 patent that ****? Throw in extra balls when they stall

 

[greyhammer90]

Offsides rule would be impossible to keep up with lol

 

[Buster Bluth]

haha I don't know about extra balls, but line changes would be achievable if the field were small enough.

no offsides rules. MAYHEM.

If you purposefully kick the ball out of bounds to stop play you get tased. KEEP IT GOING.
