What an Honor for Clemson

Number 10 in all stadiums in North America and #1 in college football. No doubt this ranking is disputed by many larger and storied college programs, but we're on top for this ranking. Eat your heart out coots at #40.

I agree with Death Valley ranked No. 1 stadium in CFB ...

... but the rest of the top 100 "places to watch a sporting event" are all in North America, so there certainly is a bias there.
I find it laughable that Williams-Brice has a higher rating than the stadiums of Manchester United, Chelsea, and Liverpool -- and Atlanta United is not listed even in the top 10 of MLS ... I stopped looking there. 
GO TIGERS!!!

40. Williams-Brice Stadium (aka, The Dead Cockroach), South Carolina Gamecoots
Over the years, the Gamecoots football experience has devolved from some lame on-field traditions to college football’s number one laughing stock. A non-existent winning tradition, a lack of athletics leadership and more wasted money in the program has seen upgrades on everything from doo-doo ice to paved parking lots. Start the day with a tailgate — and oh, end the day throwing up on your buddies to being arrested for fighting and indecent exposure. Gamecoots fans surround the stadium for miles in every direction like a plague of redneck zombies, drinking, fighting and being complete a-holes. Tailgate sites vary from industrial wasteland lots to the upscale greenery of dumpsters where the team struts through on their way to the game to take their weekly beating.

From a 2nd gen Tiger, I'd say your comment is a bit strong. It's not accurate in most ways and certainly exaggerated since I've been there at some of their home games. Point is, you can dislike the Gamecocks without making your post shocking and therefore.....wrong. For what it's worth. Go Tigers!

Some of the more familiar names in the NFL include William “Refrigerator” Perry, Dwight Clark, Charlie Waters, C.J. Spiller, Sammy Watkins and the 2016 Heisman Trophy winner DeShaun Watson. Even they think Deshaun should have won!

I agree. I went to the Clemson-Syracuse game in 2014. The only folks who were sightly obnoxious were several Orange fans sitting a few rows behind me. They were not terrible, but probably seemed pesty because the Tiger fans were so well behaved.

Pretty sure FSU Doak Campbell holds more that Death Valley...the write up on Clemson says we're the largest in the ACC at 81,500

They underwent a renovation in 2016 to add club seats
Jan 22, 2018, 10:02 PM
|

and I think that must have taken out a couple thousand seats dropping overall capacity some. You were correct in that it used to be the ACC’s largest around 82,000.

Thanks for the math on the difference between Memorial Stadium and Tiger Stadium's ranking .
I already had my left hand's fingers splayed when I read across it and was able to get back to normal ... the way things were before the subtractioning .
