You make me love America, as an American. Sometimes we don’t see what we have. I love your perspectives and enthusiasm for our country.
We get caught up in negativity here in the USA, just like other places. We do have a spectacular group of people here in the states.
@@stevehorn4680its subjective in every country its just that we're used to stuff here in the US and it varies by state met a girl from Michigan and she came down to visit me in Florida and she was like excited to see palm trees ...
You are so correct about that one. It's part of the reason I avoid the Mainstream Media and Twitter these days because all these platforms seem to do is fan the flames of division.
The first clip is from the University of Iowa in Iowa City where I grew up. They built the children's hospital so it over looks the stadium and they have a large room at the very top with huge windows to view the game. The hospital staff invite the kids and their family to come tailgate and watch the game in that room and they have treats and games. At the end of the first quarter, of every home game, all players (from both teams), coaches, fans, and refs turn to wave to the kids. It is pretty cool!
Need to watch more than a wave from ESPN game day
That’s incredible. ❤
@@christopherjon1245 Incredible
WVU did the same thing after Iowa did it. That is a tradition I can get behind, no matter what college does it
Oh, I love that!
Fun Fact: The stadium with the 3rd biggest seating capacity in the entire world is a college football stadium in the US called the Michigan Stadium. It has 107, 601 seats.
In fact 8 out of the top 10 biggest stadiums in the world in terms of seating capacity are US college football stadiums
**The Mo' You Know Meme**
It seats more now go blue
GO BLUE !!!!!
AKA, 'The Big House.'
Go Blue!
I would say the big 5 games to watch in college football are:
1. Ohio State vs Michigan (aka "The Game")
2. Auburn vs Alabama (aka "The Iron Bowl")
3. Oklahoma vs Texas (aka "The Red River Rivalry")
4. LSU vs Alabama
5. Penn State White Out
Geaux Tigers!! 🐅
Also... if you want tickets for any of the games you mentioned.... bring $$$$$$
@@artemis009 Geaux Tigers!
Here in Texas, we do this for High School Games.
Same here in Indiana, if the local school goes wins regionals, might was well say your not sleeping that night. We take our highschool Basketball and football both incredibly serious.
Georgia as well, especially in the rural areas.
Yes we do!
@@Loki_TricksterI grew up in a small town south of south bend. When our football team went to state, you could have robbed any house in town. There was nobody that didn’t make the trip to Indianapolis for the game. I swear all 4500 people showed up. Our competitors that day were a team from Evansville. There were over 10,000 in attendance from both towns. Since our town was 4,500, that’s about everyone. I’ve never been to a colts game that was that loud.
Facts!!!
Fun fact about Wisconsin’s “jump around” is that engineers had to design the stadium to be strong enough to support that many fans all jumping up and down at once😂
Lol here in UCF they said f*CK it and let it bounce 😂
Have to say, the "Jump Around" is far and away the lamest one.
Some of the best times I have had at any sporting event have been in Camp Randal (as I notice I am wearing a Badgers shirt as I am typing this)
@@esh_414as a buckeyes fan I can agree, going to Michigan and Wisconsin EASILY my favorite away atmosphere. Followed by Iowa and Penn state. Wisconsin knows how to party lol.
So a child in the children’s hospital wrote a letter that they wished they could waved to from the Iowa stadium. So now, as a tradition the entire stadium turns and waves to the children in the hospital every home game
This is a wonderful thought. But, it wasn't a child from the hospital that came up with the idea. The girl's name is Krista Young. She was just a young fan that came up with the idea, when she first saw the proximity of the hospital to the stadium.
The second clip is at UT, the university of Tennessee. Our nickname is the big orange. The fans (~102,000 people) know their ticket seat and section ahead of time. When they announce they are going to do “the checkerboard stadium”, they announce the color each section should wear (white or orange). That’s how you get the two colors on those days.
You think tailgating is something, we have the “Vol Navy”. It’s houseboats, yachts, even fishing boats, all tie up right next to the stadium, which is on the river, and have a huge party on the water while watching the game.
We are called the Vols because Tennessee is know as the volunteer state. We traditionally have more volunteers to go fight for America than any other state.
Yeah, dude you gotta go at least once in your life. Just come in early September to mid November and you can go to a game!
L3WG needs to go to the Third Saturday In October!
Good ol' Rocky Top 🏈
Lol even as a georgia fan I love seeing environments like that. No matter the team it always gives me chills seeing so many people together doing the same thing and getting hyped
Yes you definitely need to go to a UT Vol game. You won't find any more enthusiastic fans anywhere.
It's great to be a TN Vol!!!!!!!!!
My grandmother has has season tickets to UT football since 1952 and still goes when she can.
My favorite game was The Battle of Bristol.
The 1st one is Kinnick Stadium in Iowa City. It is a new tradition they do every home game after the 1st quarter
When you figure out your US travel plans, and find a state you want to be in during the autumn, get some of us, your subs, to help with picking a good game to see. More important than knowing the details of football, they need to teach you the cheers, songs, and traditions for that university. You will have such a fun time!
The white out at Penn State is one of the coolest things you’ll ever see. Over 100k fans, all wearing white and going nuts.
I’m a Notre Dame fan by blood and we have our own awesome traditions, but the whiteout is probably the most visually stunning things to see.
The one you saw, waving at the kids in the Hospital, is done at every home game for that school at the end of the 1st quarter of the football game.
I'm from Wisconsin and have lived in Tennessee. The fans for NCAA Football can be rabid all around the country. When I lived in Chattanooga TN the rivalry I saw between SEC fans was amazing. I got to witness Tennessee beat Alabama when they were ranked #1 at the time. I was fortunate to be out on the town with friends that night and the energy for that 52 to 49 last second victory from the Vols was absolutely intense.
The young man in the overalls leading the cheer was a cheer leader for Texas A&M, the Aggies which began as an agricultural college. That is why he looks like a farmer.
You "know" your school's cheers.
They’re called Yell Leaders and thus lead the student section in the yells or cheers. They typically wear a white uniform during games that more resembles the military uniform the A&M Corp wears since A&M was once a military school as well. That clip was probably taken during Midnight Yell which is another great tradition. Gig Em Ags!
@@KellyArringtonMuster roll call is my favorite Aggie tradition. I’m a Bearkat myself but as the daughter of two Aggies, the roll call means a lot. The culture was such a part of my dad’s life and when he passed it was so awesome to see that culture care back.
@@hatleyhoward7193 I’m so sorry to hear about your dad! Glad that you felt loved and supported during a difficult time of loss. That is the absolute best tradition at A&M. It’s such an honor to be there for the families. Hope y’all are doing well!
So as a University of Georgia fan this how we do it. Let’s say the game is at 1930. By 0600 I’m awake and getting ready to head to my spot to set up tailgating. Set everything up and start cooking breakfast. Once done start drinking and playing games. Lunch. Drink and play more games or watch other games on the TV. Then go to game. This year we can drink in the stadium. And your family and friends are there with you.
At 4:25, Roll Tide!!! 🐘 During the second half of the University of Alabama’s home games, they play Dixieland Delight by the country group Alabama. Everyone sings along and a few extra lyrics are added, ha.
Yes, those were cowbells courtesy of the Mississippi State University fans. Those cowbells are annoying as hell in real life. 😂
I remember college football when I lived in Mobile in the 90's. Everywhere you turned you saw "Roll Tide". Everyone decked out in their Alabama jersey's or red and white on game days. I imagine that's a scene that plays out statewide.
Warrrr Eagle I will never say roe tie. And I live in Alabama
My son went to Mississippi State. He still has his cowbell.
NCAA football is a multi-billion dollar industry.
The Iowa fans wave to the kids in the children's hospital at the end of the first quarter during every single home game.
There is a clip of American football in Germany and the crowd is singing "Country Roads".
Yea my wife hates football but her and I take my dad and children to NFL games all the time. It is an all day party with tailgating then the game. Its a blast!
Dude, the"madness" starts as early as 12 year olds. But in some states football is a religion.
You mean it's NOT religion?
Yup. It is in Texas and almost that way in Tennessee. I think Alabama is pretty close to Texas/Tennessee fanatics. It's a lot of money for schools. A school.with a great football team will get money from alumni for football while schools without a good football team, but GREAT academic accomplishments can wind up bankrupt because they won't be supported by the alumni because the football team sucks. Unfortunately.
If you look at the endzones of Neyland Stadium, where Tennessee plays, they have an orange and white checkerboard pattern, so they have the fans in certain areas dress in orange or white to try to create the same effect in the stands.
Ohio State has 2 traditions at football games. You see the first dotting the I of Ohio. The second is at the end of the third quarter we sing hang on sloopy.
You forgot about your new tradition of losing to Michigan every year
Yep, Mississippi State has cowbells! My Aunt and Uncle went to school there and I'm from Mississippi so I was just a toddler when my mom made me my first Mississippi State Cheerleading outfit. I love the cowbells! I live in Tennessee now and everyone here is either a TN Vols fan or Roll Tide AL fan, with a few Georgia fans as well.
Some of my favorite memories growing up are from game days. My mom's side of the family has season tickets for everyone for every home game at Ohio State, so whenever there was a home game, we headed to Columbus and we all would stay in my Aunt and Uncle's house under one roof for the weekend. Those memories alone and the traditions we created for ourselves are so valuable to me. So while the whole family is extremely into football itself due to our upbringing, it still is a huge family affair for us and at tailgates and games you'll see loads of families having an absolute blast. Now I live in NYC and am rarely able to make it home for games, but whenever I do, it's still the same drill, staying at my Aunt and Uncle's home, tailgating in the same parking space, and sitting in the same seat (although now there is more drinking and partying involved 😉)
War Eagle from Alabama. Auburn and Alabama have an insane rivalry, where you pretty much have to choose a side from birth.
I shed a tear when they were singing Country Roads. That’s in my heart
👍
As did I
Roll tide roll!!!! And the tailgating is the BEST food🤤
In regards to the popularity of American college football, keep in mind that American football developed, and became popular, at the college level over 30 years BEFORE the founding of the NFL in 1920. The oldest major college sports league is the Big 10 Conference, which has been playing football since 1896 and basketball since 1906. The NFL didn't catch and surpass Major League Baseball and College Football in popularity until the 1960's and 1970's, when I was a kid. College football and basketball are also multi-billion dollar industries comparable to the major professional sports leagues in revenue generated. We have high schools nearby to where I live that have been playing football since the 1890's!
I’ve been to many a Wisconsin game and “Jump Around” never gets old
I've been to a few in different states, but for sheer audience fun and participation, it the university of Wisconsin badgers football "Jump-a-Round" at the beginning of the 4th quarter that's simply amazing. @6:25
College Football in the South is like a World Cup Final in each Saturday to the fans there.
I heard Jelly Roll say that in the South there is Jesus, Skynyrd, and the SEC. I laughed so hard because it’s so true. 😂
Running down the hill in Death Valley is the most exciting 30 seconds of college ball and the atmosphere inside that stadium is absolutely insane.
Go Tigers!🐅
AND also the DUMBEST...... dudes just tearing ACLs entering the stadium🤣😝🤕
“Americans don’t have enthusiasm” comes from us not physically fighting each other like other countries do. Every professional and college sports game I have been to (living in New Jersey) I have sat next to the opposing team’s fan. You simply don’t talk to each other and don’t over do the cheering and be rude about things. People do fight at games, they’re 90% of the time drunk.
A lot of groups in stadiums have what are called cheer sections that do specific chants at certain points in games. they practiced already and with certain hand signals they are initiated or guided along.
Americans do college football like schools of wizardry do quidditch. The crowd always swells far beyond what the size of the student body would suggest, as if through magic.
you need to see the tennessee vols entrance onto the field. the band forms a “T” and the the stem of the “T” opens up and the team runs in from the north end zone.
When my cousins were playing High School Football, . . . my aunt would make a big poster for every game day to hang in their breakfast nook.
When they graduated and went on to college, . . . getting season tickets was never a question.
Go Volunteers !!! We are proud of college football Lewis.
I live equidistant from about 4 different pro football teams. I have little interest in any of them. We focus all out attention on the college teams from around here. Fun fact, the stadium in your first video clip is my stadium. Go Hawkeyes! T answer your question about the hospital, yes they are acknowledged every game.
Although they tend to have separate sections for the different fans, they mix and there are no real problems. Razzing each other, yes Violence like Europe? No. The last is the Texas A&M yell leaders (like cheerleaders). All Aggies know the yells.
yell leaders... laughing my F*^king ass off... who wants yell leaders or a Bonfire
No mention here of USC, Oklahoma, Oregon, Auburn, Florida State, or Arizona. Great traditions as well!
If you ever do come to America and go to a football game may I suggest trying to make it a Tampa Bay Buccaneers game. Their stadium literally has a pirate ship that you can sit in and watch the game. They also fire blank cannons for every touchdown they make. It's a beautiful stadium and I hope to see it someday.
I'm a Saints fan but even I have to admit that I love what all the Bucs have in their stadium. I love the pirate ship
Americans are patriotic. We don’t let sports mess with our vibe.
I spent IDK 5-6 days a week in Boston when I was younger. I’d go into Boston pubs wearing a NY Yankees hat, and sometimes I’d catch some heat, but I could always just say “I’m from Maine, we don’t have a pro team… so I’ll wear what I want🤷♂️🤣🤣
But you do see fights in the stands tho not all the time but fights do happen
Typically, football and soccer are played during the fall season. Basketball, swimming and diving, and hockey are played during the winter. Meanwhile, track and field, baseball and lacrosse are played during the spring.
Watching a game at Milan Puskar stadium in Morgantown, West Virginia, is something you have to experience. Amazing tailgating, great atmosphere, and when WVU wins, you sing Country Roads!
I am from Clemson born and raised this is my football team in the opening of this video. I grew up about 2 miles away from the stadium. You can watch the game for free outside the gate with no problem because you can see right down to the field.
It is so much fun going to a College football game lots of fun people and such positive energy. My mom and dad took me when I was very young. Lots of standing. It is hard to sit down watching the game when everyone is having a good time 😊
You'd love it here Lewis! And we need more people like you in the US. You're good people! 😊
2:13 - My Oklahoma Sooners are the visiting team who are in the crimson color. That was an insane game that came down to the wire. That specific shot of the Oklahoma player with the huge crowd of Tennessee fans singing around him gives me chills. There was over 100k people there, majority were Tennessee fans.
That game was early in the season in 2015. We haven't played each other since then, but Tennessee will finally be coming to Oklahoma to play against us this year.
That was the 2nd game that OU quarterback Baker Mayfield started at OU. He went on to become a Heisman trophy winner, arguably the most beloved OU player, and became the number 1 pick in the NFL draft. He recently signed a 3 year contract with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He had a successful NFL season this past year and won a playoff game. He's super fun to watch.
Lewis, College football is BIG MONEY $$$$$ in the US! There is big money for the college/university, for the tv networks that show the games on tv, big money for the tickets and also parking prices, money for the coaches, big money for concessions like the food and drinks served at the games, big money for college/university Merchandise, money for the music band directors, big money for the advertisements and corporate sponsors as well! The Ohio State University Stadium is only 10 minutes away from my home!
2:39 . Exactly bro ✨️👌
My daughters went to the University of South Carolina. Part of their freshman orientation was going to the stadium and learning the songs and motions. It was REQUIRED that all freshman go to this! Also in the Tennessee clip, the orange and white sections in the stadium were all Tenn. fans. They plan ahead of time what each section should wear so that it looks that way. Fans get info of a "black out" "white out" etc. before each game.
One of the greatest rivalries that is loaded with history and tradition is the Army-Navy game. The game bt West Point and Annapolis is a game i do not miss. I cry every year when i watch this game. Go Navy, Beat Army!!
It is hard to say what one to go to iron bowl I like but army navy game is good to
3:25 Clemson where I went to graduate school. I really wasn't a football fan until attending a big game in that stadium and I was hooked.
"The Iowa Wave". Yes, during home games, there is pause at Kinnick Stadium at the end of the first quarter for the crowd attending the Unitversity of Iowa (the "Hawkeyes") to turn and to wave and co-acknowledge the children in the Stead Family Children's Hopstial hospital with their care givers and the crowds in the stands. Love the lights home games at night. The Hawkeyes ranked 24 out of 25 in 2023 football poll, but this tradition? It is a Win/Win for everyone! C'mon over!
I don't like sports, but my best memories of my father who passed away are going to baseball games together ❤
When I was in college eons ago my parents, close friends and I would go to football games and it was SUCH fun! The atmosphere is unique in America - those great autumn Saturdays just for college football. Then a nice meal out somewhere after the game - what a good time! It was an all day affair. Made even better of your team won.
Arizona has two rival universities, ASU in Tempe and U of A, down in Tucson. ASU has a huge letter A painted on the side of Sun devil mountain over looks their football stadium. Whenever U of A comes to play ASU, students have to camp overnight up on the mountain to keep students from U of A from painting their A, red.
The song is: Sweet Caroline by Neil Diamond
The next song was: Country Roads by John Denver
Check them both out
Fun fact for me with sweet caroline. I didnt even know that it had the "bum bum bum" part becuase at University of Pittsburgh games we say "Lets go Pitt" during that part. It was the only place i heard the song so i thought it was made just for Pitt until middle school
The "BIG HOUSE" is quite a sight to see/ experience!!! Especially when our Ohio "Friends " are in town!! Over 110,000 fans in attendance EVERY game!!! GO BLUE!!!!
Since you want to do a lot in a limited time and I know you're considering Texas, one idea is go in September and in Dallas you can attend the Texas State Fair to see all the cool animals and eat all the great fair food, and 1 of those Sept Saturdays they play one of the biggest college football games of the year on the fairgrounds...Oklahoma vs Texas.
Both teams are usually good and its a huge rivalry so the atmosphere will be good. Not saying there aren't other great games to go see, but again this would help fit two big events into a single day/weekend.
As a CU student we easily have the best tradition. Our team runs onto the field behind a live buffalo. I believe this channels part Two included it
At Auburn University in the Great State of Alabama, our battle cry is War Eagle. Before each home game, our Eagle is released to fly over the stadium before returning to the handler on the field. So BEAUTIFUL.
Lewis, college football season is September through January so by the end of the season it can be very cold, and you can even sit through a snowstorm. I am in Miami, and I am a graduate of the University of Miami. Here in Florida, we also have the University of Florida and also Florida State University...there is also University of South Florida in Tampa, and University of Central Florida, that all play football in the top level in the NCAA (National Collegate Athletic Association).
The clip with orange and white was Univ of Tennessee in 2015 when Oklahoma played at UT. UT colors are Orange and white and Oklahoma is Red/Crimson and white. In college football at UT the visiting team is generally given an allotment of 5-7 thousand tickets. Maybe a few more for a conference game. The designated away team tickets are grouped together. Usually one section in lower deck and one in upper deck.
Great family tradition. When I was a kid, we weren’t the sort of family that would all together go to a movie or camping. But the one thing we did was go to Arkansas football games quite a few times. And that for a kid really getting into football was the most exciting thing you can imagine. Another game was also the only time my father and I took a trip, just the two of us. Good times!
I live 2 hours away from Neyland Stadium...holds over 100k fans at the University of Tennessee
You should have seen the game a couple of years ago when UT beat Alabama. The refs held their arms up to say the kick was good and took off running immediately because all 102k fans stormed the field in celebration...the goal post was found in the river a couple of days later
BBQ, beer, music, laughing A LOT, and welcoming anyone walking by to join and offer them your recipes... doesn't matter if wearing your team or the other side. Would love to have you join in. It's a madhouse zoo of humanity and just an excuse to be together ❤️
And no fans mixed together 😂 UT Vols (Tennessee) colors are orange and white. So the colors are being worn and fans mixed together. The opposition are across in the other stands. Our stadium is HUGE.
University of Kentucky, when I was in band we would make a giant K and march it up and down the field in pre-game. I lived in fear of being the one idiot that didn’t do an about face on time. The band also plays “My Old Kentucky Home” at the end of games.
The fans don't mix. The different colors and things are arranged before the game. So you will wear the color according to you seating
L: Not all colleges have fans sit arranged by color. At Clemson (Go Tigers!), all we care about is orange.
I'm beginning to think you need to plan your trip around a College game if you truly want to see one. Football season is September thru January. Check if some subs or patrons can get ahold of tickets a few months in advance then start planning on what you want to see around that region of the country, whether it's the West Coast and Desserts, Southeast, New England states etc. For September and October games places like Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania & New England aren't cold yet. In November, December, January you might want to be farther south for the warmth. Places like Texas, Florida, Georgia, California and Arizona are all good choices. What ever region you want to visit, just let your online friends know far enough in advance and I'm sure someone can hook you up.
Was at the nfl game in Seattle WA and on a crazy run by marshawn, what's now known as the Beast Quake. Stadium cheered so loud it caused seismic activity👌🏾🫡
The last clip is at Texas A&M where students can attend "Yell Practice" the night before each home game to learn the yells.
The hospitals around me for children are full and around amazing things so the children are as comfortable and happy as possible. I'm by Kosairs (where my daughter spent months in NICU from prematurity) and they had super heros washing windows. Beds looked like Legos and so much more. So amazing!
Football isn’t the only sport that has this sort of atmosphere; it’s just bigger for the major university football programs. There is a lot of such atmospheres for hockey and basketball. In Boston, we have a special “playoff” game known as the BeanPot. (Named for the famous food, Boston Baked Beans.). There are several colleges/universities that compete during their seasons to win one of the two spots to play in the BeanPot. Lots of turnout for those! I am not a basketball fan (I think it’s a boring sport) but I shared with you on another video of the atmosphere a good college/university band can play into at these events.
In Football 1st downs are a good thing. And getting more than 10 yards is awesome. If you do get to an "American Football game try to find the rules in some video or whatever and just the basics and watch a couple of Football movies like "Varsity Blues and the "Program. Good Football movies I love. Just something I recommend doing for fun so you can understand. Really good video "L3WG 👍✨️
My parents used to take me and my brother as kids to the iowa Hawkeyes games. I just used to watch the cheerleaders 😂 Now that I'm older, I love football and go to a couple of games a year. I wish i could afford to go every weekend!
The cowbells are at Mississippi State.
Professional sports games are generally more expensive & dont have a 'supporters section' that allows for songs & chants. Thats why you generally hear a DJ play songs for them to chant to. College has the 'student section' with cheaper tickets for the students, so they get rowdy & all have their own traditions
That NCAA game ever. Whew! Happy to experience this with ya bruh. Being at College games was legit! Super fun and exciting. The people and the noise and girls. Loved it. 🎉
Yea college games are hype, the tailgating and in the stands. School have their fight songs that everyone sings in the crowd and you wind up huggin and hi fiving stangers. It is very much a friends and family thing, kids, grandparents, the girl you're dating, a lot of families have multiple alumni to the school and even of the rival team, its a big thing.
something to remember that college/university are used different in the US and UK from what i've seen. College in the US is University education (so after gradeschool ends). Most people use college and university interchangeably. University might be the school at large, but then theres the college of fine arts, college of science, college of etc. to refer to the specific programs
I also love how diverse and fun everyone had. Everyone had a great time and it's amazing. 👍
Lewis you need to check out Florida State University traditions with Osceola and Renegade you would love it
College football is the best! The games are great and the tailgating is even better. I was born and bred a Wisconsin Badger fan!
You'll have to visit the States between August and November for college football games. January starts basketball season, which is also pretty wild.
Big University of Florida fan. You’re right. Family event. Huge parade before! On the football field itself the noise level is louder that a 747 airplane taking off. The players can’t hear each other or coaches! Gator chomp chants. Whole stadium sings the Schools fight song and sways! We had the 2-bits man before every game lead the crowd in two bits chant! RIP! Now, after 3rd quarter the stadium sings a TOM Petty song (huge recording artist- look him up!) who passed on recently. He born there and went to school there and worked as a janitor be fire making it big. Whole day or weekend experience! Go GATORS!!!!
8:58 Even college football have so many questions about Texas A&M
I was a twelve year old little girl the first time I went to a college football game. I’m from Alabama so it was at the University of Alabama.
The atmosphere is electric. There really is no way to explain. You can literally feel the excitement like you can reach out and touch it.
The first one is called the Kinnick Wave and it's done after the first quarter of their home games
Come to Penn State I get 3 season tickets a yr. That's the team you rewinded for Sweet Caroline. Atmosphere is crazy and as you say "it's sick". That it is
The second clip was from Tennessee. I don’t think what you thought were opposing fans actually were. They were just color coordinated sections (Tennessee colors are orange and white), that a lot of colleges do for their home games. Usually, what few road fans there are, the home team will typically assign the visitors sections up in the nosebleeds, or other poor seated section.
If you’re going to go to a game, I’d recommend going to a Big Ten conference game, or SEC game. Both are head and shoulders the best two conferences in football.
TailGating it is like camping in the parking lot. You do your own barbecue you’ll have your friends and you can share to potluck that kind of thing. tailgate refers to the back of your truck
At the Ohio State University tickets are so sought after that there are thousands of people but wish they were there but aren't. For example if you're an alumnus you get to go to one game a year and you don't even get to pick which game it is. My best friends and her family used to have season tickets but a few years back had to give them up because they've become so expensive.
Memorial stadium in Lincoln Nebraska has the longest streak in collegiate sports for sold out games 396. Best fans ever-Go Big Red!!!!
The Orange and white that you commented about are the same teams fans. They seperate the sections to make it look like a checkerboard which is hiw the endzones are painted. Its crazy because you get 100k fans to cooperate to make it look like that. And thats the Tennessee Vols!
You are right. Family day is common.
