25 best college football stadiums to watch a college football game

10. The Rose Bowl, UCLA

The Rose Bowl, above every other stadium on this list, feels like history personified. The stadium was build in 1922 and has been home to the UCLA Bruins since the 80s. The Rose Bowl has hosted five Super Bowls, a men’s and women’s World Cup, events for two different Olympic Games, and even hosted auditions for American Idol in 2007 when people were actually watching American Idol.

However, it’s the Rose Bowl game and everything that comes with it that makes this stadium famous. The game is played after the Tournament of the Rose Parade, possibly the most famous parade in the country outside of New York City.

As far as the stadium itself, it’s very aesthetically pleasing. Having the lower bowl take up most of what you see makes it one of the best looking stadiums, especially from above. This also has visitors saying there isn’t a bad seat in the house. The white pillars that surround the stadium are worth the trip to Pasadena. It’s one of the best pieces of architecture on any stadium.

The only reason The Rose Bowl loses any points is the team that plays within its hollows is bad. UCLA can usually only fill around 75% of the stadium. However, judge this stadium based on what happens during The Rose Bowl Game. It’s an electric atmosphere when people are into the game.
