Neyland Stadium
Stadium · Knoxville, Tennessee
The University of Tennessee's football stadium, opened in 1921 and expanded until it seats over a hundred thousand people — one of the largest stadiums in the United States and in the world. It sits on the bank of the Tennessee River, which produces the thing nothing else in American sport has: the Vol Navy, a flotilla of boats that ties up at the stadium docks on game day and tailgates on the water. The end zones are painted in orange and white checkerboard.
