Was here last weekend for a concert. We had tickets at section 106, row 5 which was lower in the stadium. The view was great - when I could see through all of the people! The seats (bench with numbers on them) were really tightly packed. Everyone stood and was able to rock back and forth, but no dancing room. They wouldn't allow us in the aisles. It was incredibly humid and hot, which made it feel rather claustrophobic. Out of the three nights I went, I left my seat and found another area with more breathing room. Other than that; the stadium is really nice and I would imagine pretty great views from most places. Lovely that it is outside so that the clouds (and a bit of rain) could come in, as well as the Lunar moon. Getting in and out of the stadium was a huge challenge. Several hours to get from the stadium to our hotel (20 minutes away) due to traffic jams. Food and drink offerings were good. Staff was nice. Cool buildings.

THE best college football venue. No one else in the world like Folsom Field. Climb up to section 217 and look at the Flatirons sitting over campus. Go in to the historic landmark of Balch Fieldhouse to pick up a beer in a sustainable cup you can take home. Stand in the student section before the game for the deafening chant of "WE WANT RALPHIE". Walk around the beautiful Fall campus afterwards as everyone pours out. Folsom Field should be on every college fan's bucket list

Nice views from most of the seats in the Stadium Of course the lower you are down,in the stadium the better your view of an event. , BUT here's a TIP! This is Colorado and the weather can change quickly. The sun can burn you up in 10 minutes (because of the elevation), so wear sun screen. The wind can pick up in a heartbeat and you'll be freezing. Throw a sweatshirt in your backpack...just come prepared. Parts of the Stadium are being updated and you'll love it. Overall it's one of the biggest attractions on the CU Campus. Go on line for a map of seating. www.cubuffs.com HOPE YOU FIND MY REVIEW HELPFUL AND MARK IT HELPFUL! ENJOY!!!

I purchased PIT tickets for ODESZA and CU sent me GA field. When I called to fix this they said pit was sold out and they would call me if tickets become available. They said their system has a feature that allows customers to show “best available” and when I clicked on pit they gave me different tickets. This is UNACCEPTABLE! I bought these in pre sale and I’m flying from florida to see this show. They couldn’t do anything to help me and I am disappointed. I will not be coming here again

We are CU supporters as both daughter and son-in-law are graduates of this fantastic university. But we recently attended the CU-USC game and were very disappointed (read upset) about the low level of sportsmanship. The Old Fieldhouse on the west side is a huge fire trap, this needs to get on a capital improvements project. The visitors are relegated to small corner in the NW side of the field, where the bleacher seats are so narrow, a normal person (do not even consider a large to XL size person) could never fit. We witnessed ROW 7 get to the point where there was not even 1/8 inch left. We were lucky to book 6 seats for 5 people, rented the stadium chairs (which help greatly in establishing your space), and barely had room. So that means the seat spacing should be increased by a minimum of 1/6 (read 16.67%). The level of sportsmanship was so low, there were several CU fans with Triple X rated speech in front of the family crowd. Come on Buffs, you can do much better.

Watched CU beat New Hampshire 45-14 on 9/15/18 from 3PM - 7PM; At 2:30 go into the field house on the west side next to the Stadium to hear the CU band play school fight songs before the game. Lots of fun. Was a very hot day; high was 91 degrees and inside the fieldhouse probably 100 degrees with no a/c; we had seats on the 50 yard line on the shady at 3PM west (visitor) side: section 106, row 32, seats 7 & 8; $150 each. There are no water bottle filling stations...just old fashioned drinking fountains. Stadium is hard metal bench seats with no seat back; you can rent attachable cushioned seats with back for $8 before you go inside the stadium. Can't bring in seat cushions that have zippers or compartments; security very strict. East side was in full baking sun, probably 100 degrees. Team mascot, Ralphie, a 1000 pound female buffalo, runs onto the field leading the football team at the start of the game and start of the second half. She stays in an air conditioned travel trailer at the north end of the field. Overall was a fun game. Just pick your seats carefully.

This place is insane! Being from the UK you expect the US stadiums to be a lot smaller, this place is crazy big. Go and visit! You won't be disappointed!

This is the best place in the country to attend a football game. Nothing compares to the game day experience in this location! Add in the pageantry and your favorite team for a perfect Saturday afternoon.

You can not find a better place to watch college football game than high in the east stands. Football on the field and the Flatirons (mountains to non-boulderites) in the distance. I'm still waiting for the support the SEC fans give their teams but it is coming. When the stands are filled to capacity it will be better, but then you won't be able to get a ticket. Try to buy a ticket in the club level- the food there is great and beer and wine are sold. There are also food trucks around the stadium that have 4 star food. Come and watch the Buffs!
