There’s nothing, NOTHING, like 100,000 pissed off, drunk ass fans split down the 50 with nothing but hate in between them. Go if you can. It’s the greatest rivalry in sports and we all just saw why.
i think thats bc its neutral in that its perfectly balanced, two extremely passionate fanbases making as much noise as they can. any big play for either team will receive a comparable crowd response. sometimes neutral site games mean neutralize all fans, this is more of maximizing two counter points so that adding equal amounts positive and negative equals 0
I think the whole thing is the neutrality like you say, the 50/50 perfect split, the State Fair atmosphere, and also the fact that for whatever reason, we just keep getting classics. It seems to bring the wildest fans out of each fanbase, and the game is so much better for it.
I’ve never been in a louder environment and the videos I’ve seen would say this year rivaled what I saw in 2021. And it’s half a stadium. There’s something about that place during a classic

I need that in the hype videos…”It’s hate & corndogs”.
I’ve wanted to go to that game for years now, my cousin is moving to OKC next year…I now have a valid reason to spend all the money necessary to go.
