Why? It's painted in the North End zone. Rutgers embraces it!Silly list. But I not wild about the Birthplace either. Some of those names are simply made up.
Just don’t like it. Been going to games for over 40 years never heard anyone say “ I am going to the Birthplace to see Rutgers play. The Birthplace is not a nickname for the stadium. It is a statement of history. Silly list.Why? It's painted in the North End zone. Rutgers embraces it!
The list is **** but you can't deny that Rutgers uses it for marketing. At least the person who made this list got it right, exactly they way Rutgers promotes it. Even though the game was by the Barn on College Ave not in Piscataway. And Princeton ignores that history!Just don’t like it. Been going to games for over 40 years never heard anyone say “ I am going to the Birthplace to see Rutgers play. The Birthplace is not a nickname for the stadium. It is a statement of history. Silly list.
The Box is short and sweet.To be fair, Birthplace of College Football is more of a description than an actual nickname - how about "the Uterus" or "the Womb" or "the Delivery Room?"![]()
The Pig Pen would be a better name...Seriously? I have lived in Arkansas for 67 years. Never once have I heard the stadium referred to as “Hog Heaven”.
I call BS on this list.
I never heard anyone refer to many of them. I doubt any Clemson fan calls it Death Valley Jr. I never heard of Pitt as the Big Ketchup Valley. I never heard any one call Beaver Stadium as Happy Valley. That more of the town area nick name.Seriously? I have lived in Arkansas for 67 years. Never once have I heard the stadium referred to as “Hog Heaven”.
I call BS on this list.
i will take a hard pass on that name as well. It is actually the Donald W. Reynold’s Razorback Stadium.The Pig Pen would be a better name...
I am sitting in a bar in Pittsburgh right know. “Yard” is Shadyside. Just ask a group of Pitt fans about “The Big Ketchup Bottle”. No one has heard of that one either. What kind of people spend time working on lists like that - very odd.
Yeah, making the list is not really odd at all.Or what kind of peoole spend time scouring the internet for random lists or posts to get angry about?
Grrrr
