From $50 parking in an open field to a $6 bottle of water inside the stadium. The charm of the campus fades with each building built. Surprised there isn't a fee to visit the grotto and Basilica. And now you have this fake noise pumped into the stadium atmosphere by a DJ blasting rap music, some gal screaming into the P.A. system at every break, and a Jumbo with sound levels competing with a Deep Purple concert. That's not atmosphere. It's ginned up hype IMHO. The fans, led by the student body, know when it's time to get loud. And yes, I've heard it time and again that there is something to noise and a bowl stadium. Don't blame 4th and nine or 10 men on the field on the lack of stadium atmosphere. OSU could play in a graveyard at midnight and still win.
