    Just randomly saw it, I was pleasantly suprised to see us so high, as we finished behind only the Celtics, Yankees, Broncos, and Duke Basketball.

    no, but when talking about Tiger Stadium they did use Bear Bryant's quote about Death Valley being like trying to play a game inside a drum. I didn't catch a couple of the lower ones but I believe we were the only College Football stadium mentioned.

    i was at a dealership getting my oil changed, with a Clemson fan sitting next to me, watching sportscenter. I had to rub it in a little bit about where the REAL Death Valley is. I also had to ask him why didn't Clemson make the list? He wasnt too happy after that.

    the Celtics?? The Celtics are 12-8 in the Garden this year...

    I guess it was huge when they didn't have AC, but it really isn't very rowdy...

    #1 in the NBA was the Kings 2-3 years ago... the Arco crowd is something else
