Commonwealth Stadium

Love the atmosphere there. I’m made a two hour drive just to see the Cats play. What a nice stadium.

So my first time here was for the meeting between the TN Vols and the KY Wildcats. Had read where UK had renovated most of the stadium and expected more than what I got when I got there. Concessions weren’t outrageous although not too much to choose from along with not many souvenir shops to choose any items from. For such a small stadium it does get loud and wild, I’ll give the fans that much. Most UK were friendly and fun to hangout with. Parking is a mess if you don’t have a parking pass for a marked lot near the stadium. I’ve been to many different stadiums and arenas and this is a small clean stadium in a good location on campus.

Ok stadium. Not as good as neyland. Any seat is a good seat. Good concessions. Ok bathrooms. I’m not a wildcat fan but I was there today to see my vols and see them win 52 – 21 against UK. The only time UK beats UT is in basketball season. Our seats were greats in section 204 row 9 you can see everything. Boooooooooooooooo Wildcats. Gooooooooooooooooooo VOLS GBO VFL. if you come to commonwealth stadium you will be satisfied

I am a revolutionary on some levels in that I think we should share the wealth with the common people. Unfortunately the Commonwealth never did that and neither does this stadium.
However the Wildcats that play here are pretty wild, and the fans are pretty loud.
First-​Hand Experience: Info on my personal visit to this stadium — loved the Wildcat fans. The girls were fantastic. The 3 girls that came to this stadium with me were squealing throughout my concert in Lexington and squealing throughout the game here too. They were lovely. I’ve never had a truly remarkable crowd in Lexington, but the college football team certainly has one.
However just because this stadium needs a facelift, I’ll stick to 4 stars. I had an amazing time though.
I’ve been to every cool stadium in the UK & North America, due to my obsession with travel & sport. I’ve toured America as a musician for 7 or 8 years. In that time, I’ve seen sports games at, or visited when empty (and usually both), at almost every major stadium in US and Canada. I have pictures of most which I will upload at some point. Also, on future travels, I plan to take new pix, and add more stadia! Watch this space!
***back to regular review***
It’s probably the best sporting experience you’ll get to see in KY. Unless you have some KY and can use it for some sports of your own, in a motel or something. In other words, may I see your Bowling Green please, ma’am.
It’s far from a 5 star stadium, but it is fun and intense and means a lot to the people around here. It’s the newest stadium in the conference and if the fans were just a bit more into it, it could achieve 5 stars.
