The Orange Bowl Is Dead....


Recommended Posts

I felt compelled to make a thread about this. I have seen SOO many classic games in this stadium. Wide Right 2 and 3. Notre Dame v. Colorado for the national championship when Rocket Ismail's late punt return got negated by a bogus clipping call. The early Marino era. The comeback against UF. And so many many more. I wont pretend that the OB didnt have massive problems. Parking was a mess. It was dirty and run down. The bathrooms were plain gross. Yet, for 15 years, it felt like Miami just couldnt lose there. Lately, Miami has been losing games at home (thanks Coker) so maybe it was just time to move.Orange Bowl, I will miss thee.

parking was a mess doesn't begin to describe the parking situation.Excuse me, ma'am, I may have to leave early so don't block my car in with another car. Okayyy senor. No praablehm. Gimme $25 dollaOk, here you go, just don't block me in.(come back late 4th quarter during a blowout to see your car blocked in on all sides, and the people that she blocked you in with are the last to leave)atmosphere and aura is a great thing to talk about, but nice facilities are the tits.Sadly, Dolphins stadium is just over 20 years old and nearly antiquated for football and always sucked for baseball. Not counting the Devil Rays field and Jacksonville's stadium, and the Citrus Bowl in Orlando, FL as a state pretty much sucks for stadiums. Tampa Bay Bucs are the lone winner./rant about FL sucking
