New Stanford Stadium & Texas Aggies Game

A couple weekends ago we attend the Arizona State vs. Stanford football game. It was a good chance to check out the brand new Stanford stadium. Compared to the old stadium (and for that matter most stadiums in the US) it was really awesome. Everything in it was first class. It's a shame that there weren't more fans there. I'd guess the stadium was no more than 50% full. If they ever get a good thing going it'll be a great place to watch a game. ASU stomped Standford. The crazy part is that the very next weekend Stanford beat USC.

The weekend after the Stanford game, we went to the Oklahoma State vs. Texas A&M game. I was able to get a few pictures before my camera battery died. The game was awesome! A&M came back from a 17 pt deficit, the largest in school history. This was my first game to not be in the student section. It was an incredible experience seeing the student section and even feeling them. I can't even express the difference in the game experience between A&M and Stanford. I loved every minute of it! The stadium was filled to capacity, over 86,000 fans.
