Pros: It's not a high-school stadium wannabe any longer!
Cons: THEY TOOK OUT THE SPIRIT SPEAR
The Bottom Line: A beautiful remodeling job caps a decade of Seminole excellence

| beachhoppr's Full Review: Doak Campbell Stadium |
When I was at FSU as an undergrad, the stadium was nothing more than a set of ugly mustard girders. No longer! I break it down.
Looks
Well considering it is the largest masonry project in the history of the United States...I think it looks awesome!! The gothic fascade is beautiful.
Comfort
Its not comfortable. They stuck with the endless miles of benches rather than individual seats. Oh well. You could make an arguement it adds to the game to feel like a sardine and have a numb butt after 4 hours...
Field
Gorgeously manicured grass. Highly effective dranage system...so more sliding water games like Syracuse...remember?
Scoreboard
Great. Big, bright, informative
Concessions
Hey! Its a college football game. Hotdogs and pizza!
Bathrooms
Well...I try not to use them at the stadium myself so...
Problems
They took out the Spear! There used to be a huge spear that lit up showing the decabel levels of the crowd. When it peaked, the spear lit up on fire. Awesome! They took it out in the remodeling. NOT awesome.
Go to a Seminole game at least once! Nothing beats it
