It was not my favorite. I was really disappointed. Best stadium I’ve been to with the Tigers is Jerry’s World.

You should plan on coming to the Georgia game this year at Mercedes-Benz it is a much better venue than Jerry World in my opinion.

That’s the one venue I haven’t been to. I’m looking forward to going. Thanks!

You’re going to be really amazed at how nice the stadium is. Arthur Blank did a really good job on designing the stadium.

You couldn’t pay me enough to go to Atlanta. My wife had to go to Emory hospital midtown and after he visit I vowed never to go back. All the traffic and the homeless and the bums, I’ll never go back

Well you just got to be aware of your surroundings and you’ll be fine. Mercedes-Benz stadium is really safe when there is an event going on there.

Clemson and UGA fans are safe in and around the stadium but, their vehicles are not. Closer to the game we can have a discussion thread but I am thinking of parking at a station and taking the train in to the stadium. The nice hotel parking lots near the stadium are no longer immune from break ins.

Guess you're not going to any of the 30 major metros in America ever again then because you'll find all three.

For a 10 year old stadium, it's quite "bleh"

They obviously went for the base model stadium design with no bells or whistles.

We enjoyed it. We were there for a week and that was the only day it didn’t rain. And the outcome of the game may have had something to do with the great time we had too. Definitely not as comfortable as Dallas, but I didn’t feel crowded in my seat or anything like that. I’d say it was on par with Raymond James stadium in Tampa.

I liked it - I liked the tailgate party setup they had

mostly on 1 side of the stadium all together - also was nice to be able to grab the train back to San Jose right after the game. Stadium itself was probably similar to Tampa but outside better IMO

Loved it. Had VIP seats on the 50 from a friend and the amenities were amazing. Great place to watch the beat down.

Stadium was fine but the amount of people they hired to spend all their time managing where you go in the stadium was out of control. Couldn’t go see my family in section next to me (at halftime) because my ticket wasn’t in that section. They tried to tell me I couldn’t go back to my seat after the game during the trophy ceremony because the stadium was closing (they lost that battle). This is true of all pro stadiums but this one was over the top.
One of main reasons I hate college games in pro stadiums

Great. I suggest parking a couple stops away on the metro or tram or whatever they call it.

For me and our crew, we were just happy to arrive safely. I didn't pay any attention to the stadium amenities. We may have been the only morans to drive from SC to California. One day I will try to recap the entire trip.

...before the Tigers played there, the games were dull as dirt. 49er fans were pissed because the stadium is 28 miles from San Francisco, ticket prices were outrageous, and the 49ers weren't having great seasons. SF media credited Clemson with giving the stadium life. It's still 28 miles away and ticket prices are still outrageous but at least the 49ers are better. The Super Bowl will be there in 2026.
To me, it's a weird looking stadium. But, hey, when it's a 44-16 beatdown of Bama it could be on the moon and who would care!!???
