If you've never experienced a Saturday at Autzen Stadium, home of the Oregon Ducks football, then buckle up because this place isn't just a football game, it's a full-blown football event, the kind that would make even John Madden slam the telestrator pen on the table and shout, "BOOM! Now THAT'S football!" Built back in 1967 and named after lumberman and supporter Thomas J. Autzen, this stadium rose from the Oregon soil like a cathedral to college football. Over the years it's been upgraded most notably the 2002 expansion that pushed capacity past 54,000 but here's the crazy part: it sounds like twice that many. The freeway around Eugene backs up for miles, tailgates stretch forever, and it honestly feels like there are more fans outside the stadium than inside. That's when you know you're somewhere special. Then you walk through the gates... and BAM! The noise hits you like a linebacker blitzing through the A-gap. Autzen is famous for being one of the loudest stadiums in college football, and buddy, that's not marketing that's physics. Ducks fans don't cheer, they detonate. The chant starts rolling: "Ducks! Ducks! Go Ducks!" and the sound bounces off the bowl so hard your ears feel like they just went three rounds with a jet engine. The band fires up, the speakers blast music like a rock concert, and suddenly a Harley engine roars to life VROOOOM echoing across the field like thunder in the Cascades. The green and yellow colors flash everywhere, and the place turns into a sea of Nike energy, which makes sense because the university's most famous supporter, Phil Knight, helped fuel the Ducks' rise into a national powerhouse. And then comes the moment that gives you goosebumps. The stadium goes quiet for the national anthem, the military is honored, and right when the final note hits WHOOSH! Fighter jets scream over the top of the stadium in a flyover that rattles the rafters. The crowd erupts, the band explodes into fight songs, and suddenly Autzen sounds less like a stadium and more like a jet-powered rock concert with shoulder pads. It's wild, it's loud, it's electric and I'm telling you right now, in true Madden fashion: when a stadium shakes like that, when the crowd's louder than a freight train, and when the Ducks come flying out of that tunnel... BOOM! That's football, baby. Five stars. Best college football stadium I've ever experienced. Go Ducks. Go Nike. And hold onto your eardrums.

Ignore the thumb in the photo, but look at that crowd!

We came to the stadium for the banana ball game. Have he never been to the stadium before? I was very excited to finally visit it. It was clean, easy to navigate and despite its large size did not feel overwhelming. I look forward to coming back for future events.

This place is amazing. The sound and energy is like nothing I have ever experienced. Listening to people describe it doesn't do it justice. The stadium is beautiful and the energy and passion is electric. Go Ducks.

Autzen Stadium permits fans onto the field for 30 minutes post game.

Can't believe I made it to an Oregon football game here in Eugene, OR. Hitting the done button and purchasing my ticket for just $15 on TickPick, it was a surreal experience knowing I'd get to watch a game at one of the most reputable college football schools in the country. Although it was the first game of the season and the Ducks were playing an inferior opponent and favored by 43 points against the University of Idaho, just to be in the stands witnessing the game live was good enough for me. I'm surprised Autzen Stadium only holds 54,000 seats. That's pretty small for a major college football program. For instance, Michigan's stadium holds over 100,000 fans. But still, Oregon and Autzen Stadium is well known for being one of the most loud and energetic stadiums in the country. According to what I read, Autzen Stadium is designed like an amphitheater, and it's this type of arena setting that really encloses the crowd noise and makes it difficult on opponents to communicate and gives the home Ducks a big advantage. I would say for this game against Idaho, although almost every seat was occupied, I was anticipating some intense energy at least at the beginning of the game, (before the anticipated blowout, lol). In actuality, Oregon fans may not like me for saying this...but I wanted more. I wanted rowdier. I wanted to feel chills from insane crowd cheers. Instead, I felt a little underwhelmed. That could have been because their opponent, Idaho, is a small school that no one respects. Maybe if the opponent were a familiar foe or rival, things could have been different. Like I said at the beginning, regardless of how the game played out, I was on Cloud 9 just to be watching an Oregon game in real time. Extra details... - For parking, I paid $8 on Ticketmaster (without any extra fees) to take a shuttle bus over to Autzen Stadium from the VRC - Valley River Center Mall. Yellow school buses departed from the backside section of the mall. Autzen Stadium is 2.5 miles away and the ride takes 10 - 15 minutes. They drop you off right in front of the entrance gates. - My seat was in Section 16 on the home side of Autzen Stadium. This was parallel to sitting in one of the end zones. But here's the thing...for a 4pm game on the last day of August, the sun was brutal, and it was staring me straight in the eyes. Plus with it being 95 degrees outside, I decided to sit somewhere else. I noticed there were a few open spots with good vantage points from the last rows in Section 36 which was on the opposite side from the sun. I walked around to Section 36 which was a 10x better viewing spot with the sun at my back. Plus, from the last couple of rows, the looks down onto the field were fantastic. I suggest Section 36. - Unless you purchased a premium ticket, most of Autzen Stadium is sitting on benches, not actual individual seats, but that's typical of college athletics. - Here was the best part to attending the game...when it ended, the play by play stadium host announced over the loudspeaker that fans were allowed onto the field! What??? Yes!!! Anyone and everyone could walk onto the actual playing field! This was a dream come true for me! Did I take a photo touching the legendary O in the middle of the field??? Of course I did! What a way to end a wonderful college football game day experience. - Btw, although Oregon was a 43 point favorite against Idaho, yet it was actually competitive with the final score being 24 - 14 win for the Ducks. It was not a blowout and fans stuck around till the final plays. - One poor aspect was...since I decided to hang out on the field afterwards, when I returned to the shuttle bus line to go back to the mall, I must have waited 75 minutes to finally board an unoccupied bus. Wish they could have done better about the insane line. Overall, I am so thankful for the opportunity to be at an Oregon football game. It was my first time in Eugene. And it was Oregon's first game as a member of the Big 10. Thank you for having me and Go Ducks.

It never rains in Autzen... I was here for a very special persons graduation commencement. Hudson Stadium showcases the Oregon ducks football team on the grand scale, but the season is over that used for things such as this. They had the commencement start at 9 AM. The only place to get anything was the general food stands that you would imagine at any sporting events with coffee, soda, hotdog pretzels, etc. Parking coming in, was very easy for the event. It was a well put on commencement. On the way out if you were looking to drive away quickly, there really wasn't an opportunity for that but shuttles were provided to get parents and students to their next graduation spot if need be. We opted to walk over the bridge and come back later for the car. All in all well in event and beautiful stadium as always. SCO Ducks! Congratulations Ally, you have a great future ahead.

What an experience! My first game at Autzen! Love my ducks, what a fun experience. Go ducks all day! Hope to see you soon duckies!

Ducks Win! Ducks Win! Ducks Win!!!

I love visiting Eugene and Autzen! Never a bad trip, made all the better with a win over a ranked opponent. Till my next visit... Go Ducks!

Sco Ducks!

It is impressive to see how far our tuition payments go. Beautiful stadium and very well kept. Parking is not convenient.

Absolutely incredible spot to watch a football game--a must if you have a college football stadium bucket list (even if you're not a Ducks fan). The Ducks have some fun in-stadium traditions like the Coming Home lights show (1st quarter break) and Shout (3rd quarter break) that are great for everyone, even kids. Pro tip: download your tickets and the Go Ducks app before getting to the stadium. The in-stadium cell service is BRUTAL.

Our First Duck's Game. Our First Civil War Game. Luckily, were both Duck's Fans. Our friend that bought our tickets is a Beavers fan. Ick. Not really but, ick. We left late as is our friends M.O. for life, but we managed to find a spot nearby the stadium for $50.00 in a members spot that didn't show up. Their loss, our expensive score. We all made it to our seats in plenty of time before Kickoff. I was, I thought. Dressed for the weather. Oh how I was wrong. It was colder than I imagined. I kept moving and stood the whole time which helped, cuz "Boy Howdy." "It Was Cold." Of course the food and drinks were super expensive but not more than any other venue. We bought two 16oz. Waters for $10.00. It was that or drink from the sink. No. The game was awesome because The Duck's Won. It was a quiet ride home but that was o.k because our team won. lol. We can't wait to see another game here.

Nothing like an ice cold Coor's Light in a souvenir cup...

PK Park is so much more chill compared to Autzen! While it is a significantly smaller venue, I…read morethink that's part of why I like it so much. Since PK Park can only house around 4,000 people as opposed to Autzen's 50,000, it is a much more relaxed atmosphere and you don't feel like you're being suffocated by people. Security seems to be much more lax here, and from the two games I've gone to here so far, I haven't had to wait in line outside the park for nearly as long as I would at Autzen to get inside. The park is clean, and you get a good view of the field from any seat in the house. I like that for the GA section, seating isn't assigned, so you can decide where within the section you want to sit. I got to sit in the front row behind the dugout each time I came here, and it was a great experience. The food vendors have all your typical baseball food: peanuts, cotton candy, hot dogs, ice cream, nachos, popcorn, pretzels, etc., and pricing is a little steep but not outrageous like MLB pricing. They also have a vegetarian meat option for their grand slam nachos, which I can appreciate. Also, if you're obsessed with the elusive Oregon Duck like I am, it's much easier to snap a picture with him here than it is at Autzen! Oh and the baseball team is pretty fun to watch too. I only wish I had started coming to their games sooner!

I was there for a Eugene Emeralds game on Pride Night. When you arrive there is merch on one side…read moreand a bar/beer garden on the other, then a couple of porta potties including a handicap one, and then a huge flight of stairs to get to most of the park. There must have been an elevator but it wasn't obvious to my eyes. I took a lot of photos of food options, because if you have a more restricted diet you might want to know what's available before you go. I did not get a shot of every menu but I got most. Or course it may vary from time to time. I was happy to see that Peek A Book Delight was there, and was able to get a cup of mango slices with seasonings like chamoy and lime. You can get peanuts for $3 and Prince Puckler's ice cream. The stadium itself just has one main screen and there were no instant replays during the game, but they did have those fun and silly fan games in between innings that were sponsored by various local businesses. The park being outside got chilly at night but the restroom was warm. There was a couch in the women's room. Note that they have a clear bag policy and if you have a prepaid ticket to park in the East Lot, the entrance is at MLK Way and Kinsrow. Google maps took me to the wrong place and I had to drive a bit to figure out where I was supposed to go as the signage was not so good.

There are stadiums... and then there are places that feel like they've been stitched into the soul…read moreof a sport. Hayward Field is the latter. I've always had a soft spot for this place. Maybe it's the ghosts of greatness knowing that Steve Prefontaine once tore across this very track with that fearless, front-running style. Maybe it's my love for everything University of Oregon the culture, the pride, the legacy. Or maybe it's just the way this place sits in Eugene like it belongs there, like it's earned its keep. But this visit hit different. We'd been out the night before one of those reckless, laugh-too-hard, probably-made-a-few-bad-decisions kind of nights. I woke up feeling like absolute trash. The kind of morning where your body is negotiating terms just to sit upright. But instead of folding, I dragged myself out to Hayward Field. And I ran. Not pretty. Not fast. Just honest. A few laps turned into more. Sweat started pouring, lungs opened up, and somewhere between the pain and the rhythm, something shifted. It was like the bad decisions from the night before were getting wrung out of me, step by step. A full-on purge. I'll be real there was a moment I thought I might throw up right there on sacred ground. But then the endorphins hit. And just like that I was back. Energy. Clarity. Fire. I went from wanting to crawl back into bed to feeling like I could take on the whole day. "Let's go fly," I said. "Let's go do something." That's what this place does it resets you. It brought me back to the last time I was here for the Eugene Marathon. That race... man. Grinding up hills, coasting through valleys, pushing through every doubt you've got and then finally coming back into Hayward Field. You hear your name, see your time, get that medal placed around your neck... it's more than a finish line. It's a moment you carry with you. This place is known as TrackTown, USA for a reason. It's hosted Olympic Trials, world-class competitions, and some of the best athletes to ever lace up a pair of running shoes. But beyond all the accolades, records, and history... it's personal. Because yeah I love the wild nights, the stories, the chaos. But places like this remind you of something just as important: take care of yourself. Move your body. Earn your breath. Even if you made a few bad calls the night before. So if you're in Eugene don't just drive by. Walk it. Run it. Feel it. You might show up feeling broken... and leave feeling like the king of the world.

Visiting Hayward Field for my nephew's track meet, I walked away impressed. The design of the field…read moreis impressive and there's much for the eyes to see.

We were literally the first row on the end line with a clear view of the entire floor. So close you could literally hear the players jawing at each other when they were out on the floor. Amazing experience, and even though we were the outsiders and guest in the facility, we were treated well and kindly by almost everyone who we came into contact with. Unlike the rival group out of Eugene, this place and these people are worth the time and travel to experience what real college sports should be about. For anyone ever thinking of catching a game at Gill, do so before this grand facility is swept away with the tides and a new "corporate" complex takes her place. You will thoroughly enjoy it, as there isn't a bad seat in the house!

Of course the beer choices were there, but the line for food was ridiculously long. You can not see any of the scoreboard from these seats. Close the gaps in the seat area as we dropped items twice and were told we couldn't retrieve them until the Manager did it. C'mon!! And there is no water refill station in the bleacher area. Why? It's hot, we need to drink water. It is time to also enlarge the stadium. I heard this often by other people in the seats. Record crowds were prevalent the entire four days, yet when I was home later in the evening, I saw LSU play in an updated stadium that was huge. OSU has had considerable success for many years, and it is time for the university to step up and do something to allow more people to watch the games within a more updated scenario. At least the games were phenomenal. Go Beavs.
