The habit gets a new name.
College football stadiums are rebranded as “hostile” environments, complete with rankings and superlatives. The emphasis is on loudness, intimidation, and unwelcoming atmospheres. The top stadiums are touted as having a “cauldron effect” or a “wall of sound” that can drown out opposing teams’ communication. The stadiums’ constructions and designs are highlighted as contributing factors to their hostility. The rankings are presented as a way to showcase the most intimidating stadiums in college football.
But let’s be real, the real hostility comes from the fans, not the stadiums themselves.
