    All of those are bad, but I think I have the worst....Tad Gormley Stadium. Tulane will play 2 home games there this year. I am not trying to trash Gormley as I think it is the best high school stadium in the state and played my whole high school career there, but its just not good enough to be a D1 college stadium - especially in the south.

    Well, I Think I Have all Of Y'all Beat....

    The 2 WORST College Stadiums which I have seen are:

    (1) War Memorial Satdium in Little Rock. An absolute dump with terrible parking facilities. The bowled in endzone area of the stadium is nothing but bleachers which resemble a tinker-toy set & they has galvanized roofing under the bleachers in order to give the section a closed in look. Pathetic.

    (1a) Cajun Field. Another absolute trash heap. I have only been there twice but the stadium has that rinky-dink feel to it and there is mildew everywhere. This place SUCKS.

    I watch one game from the 50 yard line in the L.A. Colisseum and I agree it does suck. I think it is the worse built stadium for football. I'd rather watch a game anywhere other than the Colisseum.

    Seating wise, Tennessee was the PITS.

    Each person was allocated approximately 6-8 inches per a$$.

    After that game, I wrote the SEC and suggested that they have a policy that no stadium's seats could be any smaller than the width of that team's coach's a$$. In Phat Phil's case, Neyland Stadium would go from having a capacity of 108,000 to 60,000 OVERNIGHT. It was THAT bad.

    Seriously, we enjoyed the Tennessee trip and plan on going back. However, next time, if the same 16 people in our group go, we plan on buying 24 tickets for those 16 people. SERIOUSLY, that would give us all a single reasonable seat.

    Let's not forget the Vaught-Gormley up at Ole Miss.

    War Memorial Little Rock unfit

    I agree with Stripes.

    WAR Memorial in little Rock is the WORST stadium. Two or three years ago I went to the Thanksgiving game LSU lost to the Hogs in the pouring freezing rain. It was one of Rohans few poor games. The stadium leaked underneath even the bathrooms had water pouring from the ceiling. It was unworthy. Southern's Memorial Stadium is a palace in comparison.
    Horrible parking in the mud.
