Beaver Stadium, to many, is the first thought that comes to mind when someone mentions Penn State.
The football team is, after all, the flag-bearer for the university, and play their games at Beaver Stadium. A trip for a fall football game in central Pennsylvania is for many a pilgrimage, a rite, something to share with one’s children and pass on to future generations.
I love Beaver Stadium. Its size. Its atmosphere. Its rickety, exposed construction that makes it feel as if a toddler cobbled something together and their architect parents went “yup, that’s what a stadium should look like” and made it so.
