Approximately how many bricks are there in London?
Wonderful question! The population of London is about 8 million. On average, there are less than 3 people per house nowadays, so there must be almost 3 million houses. It might take (very roughly) 20 000 bricks to build a house. That would make 60 000 000 000 (sixty thousand million) bricks in total. It would be reasonable to double or triple this figure to allow for the myriad other uses of bricks in a city. So we are looking at at least 12 figures - hundreds of thousands of millions.
What is the toughest stadium to play in college football?
Coming up with a definitive answer is impossible and dependent upon many characteristics, such as stadium size, noise level, closeness of the fans, and the specific team in question. But there are some commonly agreed difficult stadiums.
NCAA.com released a Top 5
- Tiger Stadium, LSU
- Autzen Stadium, Oregon
- Kyle Field, Texas A&M
- Camp Randall Stadium, Wisconsin
- Lane Stadium, Virginia Tech.
Other common names include
- Beaver Stadium, Penn State
- Sanford Stadium, Georgia
- Neyland Stadium, Tennessee
- Ohio Stadium, OSU
- Ben Hill Griffin Stadium, Florida
Read below for what the community has to say:
LSU - Tiger Stadium
LSU's Tiger Stadium makes just about everyone's top 5 list, and is at the top of many of them. The home field advantage that the Fightin' Tigers enjoy there is even greater at night.
There's more to it than just seating capacity or noise level. For example, LSU's mascot is a live Bengal tiger, named Mike. When visiting teams exit their locker room, they have to stroll past Mike's cage, with him roaring and trying to reach them through the bars. A little intimidating.
But if you just want to talk about noise, how about the 1988 Auburn-LSU game, when LSU's winning touchdown solicited a reaction from the fans that registered as an earthquake on seismographs on campus? But I'm sure other college football stadiums have similar stories. And that's the point. The 2007 Florida-LSU game at Tiger Stadium reached 129.8 decibels.
A world ranking of the loudest stadiums overall had only 2 American football stadiums, the majority were soccer. Only one was a college facility and that was LSU.
University of Florida - The Swamp
Another opinion is that The Swamp in Gainesville, Florida is the toughest place to play in. I mean really the fans less than 7 feet away from the sidelines, screaming and hollering in the 90-100�º heat AND the stadium is built to keep the sound in and make it echo. The Swamp has a capacity of 88,548, record crowd is 90,716.
University of Oregon - Autzen Stadium
If you want loudest, the current record (though someone has posted in a different place a higher decibel that I have been unable to verify) is Autzen Stadium's October 27, 2007 recording 127.2 db, with a crowd of less than 60,000. For those who doubt 60,000 can make a louder noise than say, 110,000 at Michigan (the largest capacity stadium in college football at 107,581) Autzen is built into the ground and the design of the stadium keeps noise in.
