Back in the mid/late 1990s and again in the early 2000s. It was grass then. One game was frigid but clear, the other was a horrible rainy day. It’s a unique place, for sure. And if you like all the pageantry of bands and such, there are things to see. Honestly, however, it just doesn’t measure up to a lot of places I have been. I would rate LSU, Texas A&M, Nebraska, Ohio State, Penn State, BYU, Clemson, South Carolina and Florida State equal or superior in terms of stadium environment and most of those campuses and/or towns are superior. Back when I saw a game there in 1994, I would include Colorado in that group. The ND campus is fine, but not as fantastic as it is made out to be. And there’s not much to be said for South Bend otherwise. In my personal, overall rankings for road trips and venues I have LSU first, A&M second and a dead heat between Clemson and Nebraska for third.
