Pros: Huge Stadium, Tons of Fans, Very Noisy
Cons: Cramped Seats, Vols Fans, Too much Orange
The Bottom Line: Neyland Stadium is a must see for football fans. To stand there with 100,000+ other fans is truly an unbelievable experience.

| bbruno78's Full Review: Neyland Stadium |
To start with I must let you know that I am a Bama fan and am not too fond of the UT football team. However I feel that Neyland Stadium is a site worth seeing.
When you first see Neyland Stadium, you think - Oh my gosh that's a big stadium. Other than its size though it is unremarkable from the outside. One might go so far as to say it is plain.
However, first time I entered Neyland Stadium, I kinda of stood there in awe. Going in, you know that the stadium is huge, you have seen it on TV and heard about it through other fans, but you cannot really understand it until you are there. All you see when you get to your seat is a huge sea of that ugly orange color that Tennessee fans are partial to, broken only by the small puddle of the visiting teams' color in the corner of the end zone.
Once you get to your seat and try to sit down, that is where this stadium begins to lose some of its luster. The seats are exactly 6 inches wide. So, when you see all of the fans standing on TV, its not because they are supporting the team, its because there is seriously no room to sit down.
The fans there are very loud and supportive of the home team.
The concession stands are about average, though they do have large drink cups.
Parking is difficult. Be prepared for a long walk to the stadium.
