It was just a weird list... on the one hand he's praising A&M for the atmosphere and on the other he's notching Baylor up the list for being "hospitable." <BR/><BR/>Long story short, there's no game this week and I'm getting restless. Last night's Beaver triumph has me content for now though.Hiphopopotamushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12156277572814345163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2487667923513160891.post-1617536548242013582008-09-25T18:08:00.000-05:002008-09-25T18:08:00.000-05:00As much as I like and respect Griffin, I doubt any...As much as I like and respect Griffin, I doubt any "professional journalist" gets to partake in some of the ummmm, pre-game fests. I've been to most B12 stadiums/cities (marking Baylor off this year). Ranking the entire football environment for me, in order (missing College Station and Wacko); Boulder, Austin, Columbia, Lincoln, Lawrence, Norman, Stillwater, Ames, Manhattan, and Lubbock.<BR/><BR/>I think 3-7 are debateable in their order, but definitely Boulder and Austin have to be 1-2 in city beauty and football environment. I'm biased towards Columbia, but wouldn't put it in the top two. Norman just doesn't do it for me like others.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2487667923513160891.post-42570600203230084532008-09-25T09:37:00.000-05:002008-09-25T09:37:00.000-05:00"You’re in Waco and only 60% of the stadium is ful..."You’re in Waco and only 60% of the stadium is full! Who cares if the staff is nice, you're there for football and entertainment."<BR/><BR/>He gave Baylor that ranking because last year in Waco the staff was the entertainment. There was no football.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2487667923513160891.post-76244211900440956992008-09-25T08:56:00.000-05:002008-09-25T08:56:00.000-05:00My apologies, had an all day golf tourney yesterda...My apologies, had an all day golf tourney yesterday and ended up forgetting it was Wednesday.

I just find it funny that he says what he sayd when I'm all but certain he hasn't been to a game in years (if ever).Hiphopopotamushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12156277572814345163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2487667923513160891.post-58597314113673100802008-09-24T17:38:00.000-05:002008-09-24T17:38:00.000-05:00I think you also need to consider some of the othe...I think you also need to consider some of the other factors he is weighing in...that being what a reporter would consider nice about a stadium rather than the average fan. In many of those rankings he puts some value into the press box amenities, athletic department kiss-assing and so on. <BR/>He seems like a pretty fair guy when he ranks stuff like this and I will give him the benefit of the doubt in assuming that maybe he just didn't find the pressbox all that nice or something along those lines. I'm not too worried since I am sure that he has an entirely different experience than that of someone who sits next to the student section and runs out to grab a halftime beer.GingerBallshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15282553347220770288noreply@blogger.com
