Legends of the Gridiron America's Most Iconic Stadiums State by State

23. Minnesota – Huntington Bank Stadium (Capacity: 50,805)

Huntington Bank Stadium in Minneapolis stands as the University of Minnesota’s football jewel, accommodating over 50,000 Golden Gopher faithful on autumn Saturdays. Opened in 2009 as TCF Bank Stadium, it was the first collegiate or professional stadium built in the state since the Metrodome in 1982. Its horseshoe layout merges classic design with modern comforts like roomy concourses, premium club seating, and an advanced scoreboard. The stadium’s open-air concept offers scenic views of the Minneapolis skyline, giving late-season games a crisp, Northern feel—especially when the temperature drops. Gold-clad students converge in the raucous student section known for boisterous chants and the “Ski-U-Mah” rally cry. Unique features like the “tribal nations” plaza and Minnesota’s historical displays reflect the school’s heritage.
