Michigan Stadium: A Monumental Venue
Michigan Stadium, aptly dubbed "The Big House," is a colossal sports venue. Holding the title of the largest stadium in the U.S. and the Western Hemisphere, it ranks third globally. Over 307 consecutive games since 1975 have seen crowds exceeding 100,000, solidifying its legendary status in college football history. The 2023 season drew an impressive 769,797 fans for seven home games, averaging 109,971 attendees per game. A notable highlight was the November 25 game against Ohio State, which attracted 110,615 fans.
Even more remarkable are the highest-attended games in Michigan Stadium’s history, with the top spot held by a 2013 matchup against Notre Dame with 115,109 fans. Known for its massive crowds, "The Big House" consistently sets benchmarks, although it falls short of the all-time single-game attendance record of 156,990 at the Tennessee vs. Virginia Tech game in 2016, held at Bristol Motor Speedway. However, Michigan’s on-campus record remains unbeaten.
In the hierarchy of Big Ten stadium capacities, Michigan Stadium leads with 107,601 seats, followed closely by Penn State’s Beaver Stadium and Ohio State’s Ohio Stadium. Nationally, it also holds the top spot, underscoring its prominence in collegiate sports. Whether in the Big Ten or on a national scale, “The Big House” continues to reign supreme.
