Michigan Stadium

Awesome stadium and the biggest that I’ve ever been to. It’s really hard to gauge any type of service in this place because of how constantly busy it is at any location within the stadium. There are many service workers walking up and down the aisles though, which is a plus if you don’t want to get up to get a common item. For how busy it is though, the place is very tidy for the various times that I have been there. Definitely a nice place for college football and other events to happen in!

GO BLUE!!! Game day is so exciting. There is no other stadium comparable to the big house!

Doesn’t even have a roof. How do they go about calling it the big house if it doesn’t have a roof! Sound fishy.

My husband went to Michigan and for several decades I’ve heard him rave about «The Big House.» Of course, I didn’t believe all the hype and I mocked him every time he talked about the stadium and the marching band. Finally, last fall he convinced me to go to a game and now I’ve been to three. It’s pretty amazing (and crowded and uncomfortable) to sit in the stands with 110,000 other people. The marching band is fantastic and the James Earl Jones «yay rah Michigan» video is impressive.
However, the concession stand food is expensive (not a surprise) and it’s terrible. Come on, improve the food so fans don’t feel so ripped off.
Definitely review on the website what you can bring into the stadium since no purses or bags or umbrellas are allowed.

This is the Holy High Temple of College Football. There is nothing comparable, and I’ve been to games all around the Big Ten and Notre Dame.
Make it a point to see a game there once in your life.

In this particular case, I don’t like the «Yay! I’m a fan» four star description default from Unilocal,I’m a Northwestern alum so I am not a Michigan fan. However, this is an amazing stadium, jaw-​dropping intimidating if you’re wearing the visiting team colors. Three times the capacity of Evanston’s Ryan Field wouldn’t fill this Big House, and yet the faithful fans here do exactly that (fill the Big House) every home game since I don’t know when. I’ve heard only Happy Valley is louder, on more than one occasion I’ve seen the Michigan faithful rattle my Wildcats with their enthusiasm. Even when the ‘Cats get shutout, I feel like I got my football money’s worth because the sightlines are pretty good, it’s actually better to be way up near the top than midway down. Unlike Michigan State or Illinois, it isn’t hard work to get up to the distant seats because this stadium is built downwards into a literal bowl, the only problem is my fear of heights makes walking back down problematic. It is really really big. There’s always a very high quality half time show, even compared to other Big Ten halftime shows. All Big Ten schools have excellent marching bands, but Michigan seems to take that extra step to put on an extravagant affair. This is extra important because it’s a fairly long way from the top seats (where the visiting team fans end up) and the very expensive concessions. The concessions aren’t just overpriced, they are poorly labeled. I was very disappointed at the «walking taco» which did not and was not (actually just some pseudo-​ground meat, supermarket taco seasoning, iceberg lettuce, tasteless tomato, bland onion, dumped into a half empty Frito corn chips bag with a plastic fork, wicked false advertising if you ask me). Like fans all over the Big Ten (except for Illinois and Ohio State) I’ve always been treated with respect other than good-​natured fan-​to-​fan teasing.
Read the restrictions on what you can bring in ahead of time, you’re not allowed much. The seats are the same uncomfortable bench seats of any college football stadium, but more so here because everybody shows up. Binoculars are very useful, I think I mentioned, it’s really really big. Hotel shuttles are always overwhelmed (I don’t know why they never learn to plan for these), but we’ve had good luck with Lyft, both in and out. Knowledge of the area helps, I always look at an area map first. There’s an intangible feeling of Big Ten Football history, thickened by the palpable approval of Bo Schembechler’s ghost watching over Jim Harbaugh. It almost feels like an unfair home team advantage.

By far, the best college football stadium in the US. Seats almost 110,000 people in a bowl shaped stadium that is dug down into the ground. All those people lead to a very vibrant experience. The school spirit here has got to be the tops of anywhere. If you want to see a college football game and have the best experience you can, then you must see one in Michigan Stadium.

Well I went with BYU (was ranked 22 in Sept. 2015) and got clobbered. Great crowd and atmosphere and I don’t think the opposing team ever makes more than 10% of the crowd. Also I didn’t know this college team doesn’t sell alcohol in the stadium during the game — I was shocked REALLY !!! Very diverse crowd and everyone seems to have a GREAT TIME — I did, even though it was 31 – 0 !!!

You cant not fall in love with the Big House! Great view, great crowd, great game. I had a blast!
The best part is the atmosphere, especially in the student section. You dont have to be a big football fan to enjoy yourself:)
I came here this past Saturday for a game vs BYU, it was a 31:0 slaughter, go blue, go coach! Also It was the 261^th consecutive game with 100,000+ people in the stadium. Definitely one of the greatest venues in the US!

«Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Michigan Stadium!»
«Thank you for being a part of the largest crowd watching a football game anywhere in America, today!»
Man, I love that stadium. Great views no matter what, 100,000+ of your closest friends, and the best football program in history. It does not get any better. Lots of concessions, lots of MDen stores, lots of entrances, lots of seats. My time as a student started with Lloyd’s last year and continued through RichRod’s tenure. Probably the worst 4 years in program history. But I still loved going to that stadium. And I’ve gone back every year for a game, except one.

This place never gets old. Amazing experience and just a beautiful stadium.
Highly recommended! Go to a Michigan football game if you can get tickets.

This place is definitely well worth my $ 60,484 a year.

Not only are you surrounded by history BUT there isn’t a bad view. I’ve had season tickets here since my Freshman year of college and have sat pretty much everywhere. There are no bad sight lines. Regardless of location or height you always get a good view of the field. After the remodel the Big House is even nicer. And the atmosphere is perfect for a college stadium.

Great stadium! The seats are benches. I found it narrow in the leg room compartment, rather than the seat width.
There’s food everywhere which is food seeing that we are not allowed outside food & drinks.
The atmosphere was awesome today — 1^st game & Michigan won Sorry Oregon!

One of the best stadiums in the country. Just move to Ann Arbor and not a week goes bye that I don’t pass by here. #bluenation #michiganstadium

Let me tell you a story.
So there was this sexy Ann Arbor girl who dated Mitch, and then she moved to Columbus and betrayed her Football heritage, by dating Brad. She got sick of Brad, and decided to return to her ex-​boyfriend.
In other words, she went back to Mitch Again.
Ba dum tsh.
I’m here all week.
First-​Hand Experience: Info on my personal visit to this stadium — I love Michigan stadium but I have to admit the fans weren’t as loud as the OSU guys and as they were supposed to be. Also OSU stadium looks more impressive, grander, bigger and more modernererererer.
I’ve now been here on 5 occasions, most recently in 2012. I’ve seen it full and empty, and while it’s a hulk of a stadium, it could definitely use a little renovation.
Now that I’ve been to every NFL stadium (current and former) and seen all 32 teams play live in the flesh, time to review them on Unilocal!I love stadia! I’ve been to every cool sports arena in the UK & North America, it’s an obsession I have with travel & sport. I’ve roamed America as a musician for years. In that time, I’ve seen sports games at (or toured when empty, or both) almost every major stadium in US/​Canada. Many pictures taken which I’ll upload eventually. On future travels, I’ll new pix, and add more stadiums! Watch this space!
***back to regular review***
It’s a fantastic and huge stadium, the reason that it gets a 4 is that its main rival is OSU, and OSU (sorry) has a better stadium. It’s just better looking, more impressive, more thrilling to visit. This is still a super-​amazing stadium though and for that reason it gets a very solid ⁴⁄₅.
I heard the Russians were using British Spitfires for awhile, but now they have gone back to using Migs Again. HA. HA. HA.
And that girl I dated from MI? Well she was a total b**ch before I met her. Then she was super nice while she was with me. As soon as we broke up, she went back to being a total B**ch Again. WOOOOO.
I thought Massachusetts was over the whole, burning at the stake crap. But apparently Salem is claiming it has a Witch Again.
I started shopping at American Apparel. Now I’m back to Abercrombie & Fitch Again.
I don’t have any loyalty to the Vietnamese Mafia. But at the same time, I don’t think I’ll ever Snitch Again.
I thought I got rid of my little nervous tic. But no. I just had another Twitch Again.
I lost my millions betting on Big Blue (DAMN YOU TOM BRADY YOU BACK UP), but then I bet on him marrying a Brazilian Supermodel and winning 4 Super Bowls, so at the end of this season hopefully I’ll be Rich Again.
Oh man. I need to reload my screen. It’s displaying that stupid Glitch Again.

Visited Michigan Stadium back in January for the NHL Winter Classic. Despite the extreme cold and snow the staff (security and concession) were extremely friendly and seemed to enjoy being there. The stadium is unlike anything I’ve seen before, it’s huuuge, I honestly don’t think there is a bad seat in the stadium. Can’t wait to come back to take in a football game!

Wow I have watched this place for years on TV, I had the privilege of catching the instant classic Ohio State Game on ¹¹⁄₁₃. What a game! My ticket was only $ 40, what a deal.
The Big house is amazing from entrance to exit. Seats well over 100k and it is quite the experience. Two huge jumbo scoreboards, you wont miss anything with these. The seating was comfy for such a huge stadium, I was near the top but it wasn’t too bad for me. Get your food quick and early, seating can be a little locked due to the size. Plan accordingly.
Parking, they do what they can for 100k. I got a lot not too far away for coming 20 min before kickoff. I would say that there is a good amount of parking around.
There is a lot of places to tailgate, the lot across the stadium looked like a lot of fun. You can find what you need here party people.
The fans are hardcore, this is a team with a long tradition. You may hear a few crazy words, but nothing too crazy.
They have some great food in Ann Arbor, but it may be hard to get to right away. 100k in one area is quite the spectacle.
The atmosphere is electric you will hear some of the loudest cheers and boos that you can from a fan base. Loved my time here, this coming from a Buckeye fan. I cannot wait to return for the next Ohio State game!

This is the largest stadium in North America. Spent all weekend here on an all-​expenses paid business trip about 2 months ago for America’s largest hack-​a-​thon event (MHacks!) that isn’t sponsored by The White House.
My boss and I got to run through where team’s enter in from and frolic on the grass, have a photoshoot, play frisbee and meet some of American’s brightest college students all while representing our diversified media company and getting tons of free food, beverages, t-​shirts and lots of other swag from the other companies that were also there (Thanks Facebook for the cheddar goldfish and gummy bears and thanks Amazon, Twiggle and Google for the free tshirts and drawstring backpacks!)
We were the «keynote» sponsor and us (along with tons of other tech companies and start-​ups) created an API for students to play with in order to create winform, webform and iOS applications that demonstrate their knowledge, coding/​hacking skills and creativity, the catch is that they had to do it in exactly 48 hours. No more, no less.
Afterwards teams (from colleges both on a domestic and international level!) could showcase their applications in a science fair-​esque /​convention type settings and winners all won monetary prizes and bragging rights.
This is a beautiful stadium, super cool basketball arena/​event space and they were very gracious hosts! *

** Wuv you Ingy! :-*

There is not much I can say different then anyone else. For my own unique experience I am a Canadian who is a fan of Michigan and has been intrigued by Ann Arbor and the U of M. The town has a great vice/​feel as well as the Stadium. We attended a Stadium tour and on our way in we were greeted with smiles, and courteous friendly staff. The staff almost acted as if you were alumni!
The tour offers a a great view of the basketball arena and the football stadium. During the tour you see and hear the great history of Michigan Football and enjoy the amenities in the luxury areas and the beauty of the outdoors in the stadium.
Going to this stadium is a bucket list item!
