Surprised nobody had posted it, but longtime Ozone photographer Jim Davidson snapped this pic during the VaTech game. Declares it the best photo he's ever taken. (Seriously, this needs to be available as a high quality print).

Pounding out aggression, turns into obsession
Ran down the ramp a week ago for the Columbus Marathon. It was pretty cool being closed in this year with the new seats in the "open" end. Impressive buckeye leaf imprints on the floor. VERY cool running out of there and into such an enormous stadium. And yes, I'm a lot taller than most runners...

No mention of Ohio State being involved in any way, but the old girl made the cover.

Everybody is somebody else's weirdo.
Just sayin': It is really going to be "sweet" sitting in Ohio Stadium on 12 Sep 2015 (vs Hawaii) when they unveil another one of these:

Apparently some fans decided to celebrate by trying to break into the Shoe and were kindly rewarded with faces full of pepper spray.

"Barkin' up the wrong tree"
Relevant because of Ohio Stadium as a concert venue.
This is a pretty good article about great bands holding concerts in College Football Stadiums.
The Rolling Stones live at Ohio Stadium is mentioned but I would have love to have been at the Beach Boys and Fleetwood Mac live at CU's stadium :)

Columbus Mileposts | May 28, 1988: ’Shoe hosts 64,000 Pink Floyd fans
A laser-light show version of Pink Floyd’s trademark inflatable pig wowed a crowd of 64,000 screaming fans on May 28, 1988, at the first rock concert at Ohio Stadium.
Only three times since have acts attracted bigger crowds. And the biggest concert ever in the city was Pink Floyd’s 1994 return that drew more than 70,000 people.
The 1988 show featured a stage that soared 76 feet into the air, a sound system that boasted 200,000 watts of power and a laser show.

Tbh Folsom Field has pretty terrible acoustics. I was a band geek and we did CU Band Day every year as a kind of preseason before Regionals. As one of the Directors explained privately, we kept going there b/c our philosophy (emphasis on music) meant we'd always score low. The competition would get lax thinking they'd accomplished something, and we'd buckle down and stop goofing off. It was a way to transition from August fun to September/October grind.
