College football makes college communities

In chapter six there was talk about football and the making of college communities. We see this all throughout the United States now-a-days. Some college campuses revolve around gamedays. There are many factors that take place in today's college football scene that make college communities. Let's take Ohio State University for a major example. Ohio State has had a prestige football team for many decades. In some cases students go to Ohio State just for the football team, call me crazy but I have heard of instances where this has happened. If a person were to go down to the campus of Ohio State on game day for the first time I feel like they would be filled with shock and awe to see how the campus comes together for the game. There is so much that happens during a gameday. Such things as ESPN or other television companies are there to cover the game as well as many events taking place around the campus. One major thing that college football does that makes college communities is the gameday tailgating. This is one of the biggest things that happens at a college campus before a game. Students, Alumni, and even just fans of colleges gather in parking lots or houses to get amped up for the games. I feel that this is an awesome event that happens on campuses to bring together the students and makes the college so special. Other schools that I feel like football helps make their college communities bigger are schools such as USC, Florida and Oklahoma. I mean these are just a few but football makes many other college communities bond together and become a unified campus.
