The Glass Bowl has been ranked by fans as the No. 4 college football stadium in the country, according to a new poll conducted by Podium.com.
An article ranking 25 of the top stadiums in the nation was published by Business Insider.
Fans ranked the Glass Bowl the No. 4 college football stadium in the country.
Originally built as a Works Progress Administration project in 1937, the Glass Bowl was renovated in 1990. As a result of those changes, the Glass Bowl became a graceful synthesis of modern technology and old-time charm and craftsmanship.
More recent improvements to the Glass Bowl include a renovation of the east side of the stadium (2016), new turf (2016), and the installation of a new videoboard as part of the Larimer Athletic Complex renovation (2014).
The Rockets have played 430 games in the Glass Bowl and have a 294-128-8 record. In each of the first three games this year, more than 23,000 fans have packed the stadium, including an above-capacity crowd of 28,117 for the contest vs. Miami (Fla.) Sept. 15.
Another big crowd is expected for Saturday’s Homecoming game vs. Bowling Green. Kickoff will be at 3:30 p.m. A limited number of tickets are still available. For more information, go online or call 419.530.GOLD (4653).
