I'm excited for the Vegas stadium to be built. I'd like our number 2 bowl to be in Vegas. Or at least the pac championship game.

Levi stadium is the dumbest location for it

The absolute fucking worst.

Even if Stanford wins the South every year Levi is stupid because Stanford fans don't give a shit

Either Mile High or HAWKS Stadium would have been sold out last year

I had to walk an hour after the game to find a car back to Oakland that was under $200

Jesus.

Even the prior way of doing it where it was at one of the teams stadiums was better.

I was living out east at the time but apparently it worked well with good attendance in 2013 when at sun devil stadium. When did they start doing Levi?

2014 or 2015?

Except the conference tried to fuck season ticket holders.

The first year it existed it was at Autzen. Back in those days it was never a question who was winning the North that year so all of us season ticket guys wanted info. Well it wasn't like bowl seating where your donor preference got you first dibs on tickets. All of us wanted our normal seats of course, but that wasn't really in the mix either because it was a Pac-12 event, not an Oregon event even though it was at Oregon's stadium and everyone was there to see Oregon.

Anyways they worked out a deal to where it was something like $75 a piece for us to get our seats for the CCG through the Duck Athletic Office. Then the conference sold every seat in the house after that regardless of where it was for $35. Of course we were fucking pissed. I sold mine on eBay and bought four through the Pac-12 and ended up a section over and four rows higher, which was only row 14.

The home stadium thing was stupid, but Santa Clara is also stupid. It should have been in Phoenix from the start. It's a place people want to go late in the year and ASU is never making the game so there is no advantage.

Except , you know, ASU making it and playing there.


And then getting crushed by Stanford.


I watched that debacle at Penn social in DC. I'm sure @swaye has been there.

Put it in Pullman and charge $150 per seat including all the beer you can drink.

It will always be a neutral site because the Cuogs will never make it - but those dumb motherfuckers will take the beer drinking challenge as some badge of honor and fill the place up.

Somehow talk Gameday into airing from there and those sumbitches will make it look like Mardi Gras.

To be fair i would take that challenge too.

But as always...I agree with the throbber on all things.

I think I smoked the celebration bowl last night

everything about Levi's Stadium sucks. People here in the Bay Area hate it. Location sucks, access to/from is a mess, and basically everyone who has attended a game there is unimpressed with the "billion dollar" site.

My wife tried to buy me a ticket to the Pac12 Championship last December and I declined because I'd rather watch on my own tv than go to that shit stadium.

Anyway, Larry Scott obviously knows more than I do because he thinks it should be there every year...plus he is sending our teams to play games in time zones that are so fucking far away that we don't watch the games...and he's also leading the world's most amazing television network, so my opinion doesn't mean much.

It's a fucking nightmare. The easiest way to do it in the Bay Area is to just get a hotel for the night with everybody else.

Except for the part where the Cougs get over the Hump in 2017 and take advantage of a tragic hot tub incident that renders Jake unavailable for AC 2017.

I know it's an ACL but I never would have guessed it's in a hot tub. Im also 81 percent sure he's a virgin.
