    Incredible stadium and atmosphere. Extremely loud so if you have sensitive ears being ear plugs. Easy access by light rail which stops right in front of the stadium. My personal favorite is riding the dawgboat ran by chinooks. Highly suggest that as the train when leaving can be crazy.

    This was my first Huskies game at a stadium, and I don't see how any stadium could be more breathtaking than this one. With views spanning downtown Seattle and Lake Washington, the stadium enhances football games with stunning visuals, fireworks, and the whole experience! The exit and entrance were reasonably efficient, considering the massive crowds of fans. I didn't try the food, but there seemed to be reasonable options. The hot chocolate was delightful on a chilly day! :)

    Section 326 row 65 seat 1

    The crowed through the main level around section 122 took about 20 min to move 20 feet with everyone pushing. As that was the only spot with that kind of bottle neck perhaps a little crowd control. In section 326 there is a bee hive or something on the roof and all they do is swarm around. And if you're in row 65 there is a giant poll blocking your view of the end zone. All in all the majority of people were friendly but we left before the first quarter even finished

    One of the best football venues I've been to. Loud passionate fans. Walk through the beautiful campus to get there and views of the lake just outside the south end zone. Talked to a season ticket holder over over two decades and they dock their boat on the water and go to a restaurant on the shoreline before every game. Great experience.

    Fun fact: did you know the first wave in the crowd was at this stadium in 1981? We came here for my first college football game since unfortunately my college didn't have a football team. The stadium is conveniently located close to the light rail station so you don't need to deal with parking. It's also great that on game days the escalators' configurations are changed to make going to and from the game efficient and there are event workers to navigate you. We arrived about half an hour before kick-off and it was pretty quick to get through security. They have requirements for bringing bags in so if you plan on it bring a small-sized clear bag. Like all sports events there were tons of food vendors, stores, restrooms, and of course people. The facilities were pretty clean too. The prices for food were a little absurd (like $6+ for a hot dog) but that's to be expected. We had pretty good seats with a nice view of the field, and there were pads for our seats which didn't seem common looking at the other sections' bleachers. I would say the one thing I'd appreciate is if they had heaters throughout the concourses for those cold days. Other than that you'll get loud crowds, passionate fans, occasionally borderline obnoxious people, and a good time. Hopefully your team will get a W at the end of the game too!

    I used the track and field of Husky Stadium as part of practice for the University of Washington women's club rugby team in the autumn of 2011. The track was good for running and the stadium being open to the public was nice as people not part of the team could still come and run stairs while we were practicing. Using the field required in-advance reservation(s). As rugby is a high contact sport with no padding nor helmets, unlike American football which has both, the field was semi-soft for landing when being tackled without padding. I have since learned grass fields tend to be better at cushioning a fall when not wearing a helmet nor padding.

    It is no surprise this stadium is consistently voted one of the most scenic college stadiums in the country. Perfectly perched overlooking the beautiful Lake Washington, Husky Stadium is an iconic spectacle itself, aside from the great football games and other sporting events here. The concessions were fantastic, far better than most college stadiums. You can't go wrong with the hot dogs with all the fixings, and the core-warming hot cocoa was perfect for a chilly November day.

    Tradition thrives here at the greatest setting for College Football. The Apple Cup is a rivalry and this game did not disappoint. The Huskies did not win but what was experience I would not miss out on. Husky Football fans are humble and loyal fans. Here's to the future. Can't wait for the next game. Go DAWGS!!!

    You know what a typical sporting event is like at Husky Stadium if you've ever gone to one. You can bet that the costs will be ridiculous, as can the wait times for using the restroom, purchasing food, or getting a drink. The parking situation was far worse than I had anticipated. I've been to four games in two years, and parking has always been easy. I don't think this is much of a complaint compared to the South. Perhaps it was the novelty of the season opener. Not only was the stadium underpopulated, but this was a top-10-ranked team playing host to a traditionally strong opponent. I bring this up because, despite my enthusiasm for games at this venue, I find that the atmosphere on game days pales compared to what I'm used to in the South and the Southeast. Expect full stadiums and no available parking anywhere within a few miles of the venue in certain areas. If you plan on sitting in the bleachers, I highly recommend bringing some padding with you. Since I don't partake in the concessions, I can't comment. The breathtaking panorama of Lake Washington and the Seattle skyline is a perk of sitting in the stadium. The campus is stunning, by the way. In sum, it was not a terrible time; you should check it out.

    Enjoyed our time at the UW game. There is a variety of food options along with drink options. Generally would say the most popular are the pretzel, cheeseburger with fries, garlic fries, and the pizza. We had the cheeseburger and fries which was underwhelming. However, the Topo Chico seltzer and coors light consistently "hit the spot" if you will. Would say it was pretty basic fair and options for stadium food.

    The stadium is well maintained, the view from where we sat was spectacular, and the staff opening/welcoming spectators were on top of their game (no pun intended). First game of the season, Huskies vs Golden Flashes (Kent State, Ohio). We won btw, yay! Go Huskies. My first (ever) attendance to any college football game, it was great!

    CT vs VT! VT took the gold & CT the silver. Close game!

    First time at Husky Stadium today for the US Special Olympics. Came with a group from work to volunteer. Great sound! So nice to be able to understand the announcer and not have the sound bouncing around like at other stadiums. Seats are wobbly. Other than that, super clean and well maintained. Not a bad seat for viewing in the house. Staff interactions were all positive and helpful. Parking here is immense and anything close is reserved so hoof it.

    Husky stadium has undergone quite the renovation over the past decade. The addition of a plethora of seats hat take you closer to the turf definitely adds to the experience. On a nice day, if you're up high and on the north side, you can see Lake Washington and it's pretty spectacular! The atmosphere is always solid and people being from the left coast are predominantly chill. There's always the one drunk tool sitting in the section, but they're pretty few and far between. As others have noted, it's unfortunately the same economists running this stadium as every other one it seems. In this land of captive and often inebriated audiences, it's for some reason appropriate to change $10 for a hot dog and $8 for 50 cents worth of pop as long as it comes in a "collector" cup. Those refills will be $8 as well...but don't you dare not recycle it! All kidding aside, the concessions here are ridiculously expensive and make it hard for anyone who's not a big donor. If you have the chance, check the place out. Beautiful setting and the same overpriced fair food you've come to expect from every stadium.

    Do they serve ginger ale in the concession?

    In the bar on club level.

    What is the best hotel to stay in close to and easy to get to and from stadium traffic wise?

    Well there are no really close by hotels but the awesome thing is that the train has a station stop at the gates of the stadium. Super safe and no shady business lots of police force during games. So depending on the hotel you choose make sure it is… Read more

    CONNECTED TO THE HUSKY STADIUM…read more ... for those inquiring location coordinates. it's hard to find because it's connected to the UW Husky Stadium. Some of us Alumni got lost walking around in wet weather in expensive formal attire. I went to this University and knew this campus like the back of my hand but as an Alumni there's so many new development the campus has changed, just like the rest of Seattle, it's become unrecognizable - for the better! EVENT. This place is an event space and the UW 100 Years Rising Up Gala was held here. Although this was a Gala, I referred to this event as the UW FASA Officers Alumni Reunion. Amazing to see friends I've stomped and organized events on campus with 15+ yrs ago hustling on budget. SPACE. Nice view, spacious (enough), bar (wine and beer), kitchen access, and plenty of bathrooms. There were roughly 400+ attendees that this place capped. Take the elevator up to the forth floor, cross this little overpass, and into the center. One side overlooked the stadium field. There were plenty of TVs against the ceiling wall. The center area expands out to another layer on each side. Restrooms on each side. What I didn't like about the space was it's odd rectangle length. Maybe good for viewing whatever might be on the field but for event space held within, the outer tables for a view of nothing. Also, if UW is going to "rent" this space out for social UW events they should allow access to the many TVs. There were some video presentations shown at the Gala and external TVs were brought in which were hard for people to see because they weren't elevated. Trying to wrap up a Gala by 11pm was doable but we also felt a little rushed to take our social engagements elsewhere. UW, thanks for opening this space up to those who pored thousands of dollars into the school at some point in their life ;)

    Your humble reviewer is not normally treated to the activities that engage the hoi polloi strata of…read moreour society, but yesterday I had the chance to watch the UW Huskies play the Oregon Ducks at the Don James Center. And let me tell you, that if this is how the upper crust is living, then how do I get on the hummer limo? First of all, the DJC is a luxury seating area for the boosters and long-time alums who support the Husky football program through thick and thin (though there is a lot of kvetching during the thin times). You enter a sheltered buffet style room and access your seats through doors facing the field. The juxtaposition between the elite and the students is emphasized by a concrete wall that allows alums to feel as though they are part of the Purple Mania going on below them, but without obligating the alum to rise up from their seats and potentially disturb the caramel latte that they obtained gratis from the DJC. One can simply rattle one's jewelry in honor of the team's successful performance. The food here is designed for the elite palate. Chein chaud (Hot Dog) and Salad de Ceasar. Judging by the voraciousness of the food obtaining process, this is a well-anticipated event for most of the attendees. Conversational snippets overheard were dominated by descriptions of physical ailments and liabilities, particularly those related to the gall bladder. If you have any rich UW friends, try ingratiating yourself and see if you, too, can get a shot at the DJC.

Even during the homeless days with the Capitol Hill and U District tweens with patchwork jackets and dogs mobbing around in packs this theatre was in good condition. I have over 20 years of memories coming here watching indie movies like Pirana, docuseries to Siff films. I also watched plenty of blockbuster films. My fondest memory is the smell of the popcorn that fills the front space. It is so distinct and the melted butter and grease on my fingers rubbed on my movie ticket is nostalgic. I love the indie vibe of the workers. It was a polite Seattle cool, depending on the era a little emo and punk, with some grunge. The attitude was very U District. I hope this theatre can raise the funds to fix itself up. It is one of my favorites and I hope it doesn't get boarded up. It still has so much life left.

At this point it felt like it's mostly dependent on personal preference so I decided to go in and find out. I thought the place is decent. The biggest attraction is that tickets are probably the cheapest in the area. Regular ticket price is around $16 for Seattle but it's $10 at Varsity (as of December 2023). And you get a dollar off if you're a student. Also you don't even have to buy the student tickets in person because you could just order them online (other places like AMC downtown, you have to go in person). I made sure to bring my student ID in case if they want to check, but it was never checked onsite. I think it's a little more shabby than AMC and other more commercial theaters, but it does its job. The movie started on time and there were no issue throughout the movie. I wish they could just shut off the ads before the screen turns on at starting time because you're facing a blue screen that shows nothing while the ad is blasting. On the other hand, I liked that there aren't that many previews to watch through to get to the actual movie I came to see. The bathroom is two flights up the stairs from the ground floor. It's well kept and smells ok, but they probably have to check the toilet paper inventory more often. By the time I went in, there were no toilet paper left at all so I didn't forget to inform the staff that before leaving. The staff was polite and accepted my remarks in good spirit.
