The exhibits are beautifully presented, and the combination of history, technology, racing memorabilia, and personal collections is impressive. Our docent, Bob led our tour. He was knowledgeable, engaging, and clearly very passionate, which brought every display to life for us. We left with a much deeper appreciation for motorsports history and would highly recommend this museum to anyone visiting Lincoln, Nebraska. We spent 3 hours there!

Very cool space! The museum did a story time with free admission after. It was a great experience…read morefor all. Not only was the story time interactive, it was in a huge room with the most amazing cars! The employees were friendly, welcomed us with a smile. All of the cars were so cool. They also had signed guitars from past celebrities, memorabilia. The museum itself is also huge! We didn't get to explore all of it, but I believe it's at least two floors! Lots of history and epic cars too look at that I've never seen anywhere else. If you visit Lincoln, this is definitely a place to add to your bucket list!

Concerts are Noon-1pm every Wednesday. It's hidden away downtown in the Lincoln Community Foundation Gardens (behind the Korn Popper). Bring some lunch, or if you're empty-handed, you can grab some food from the Korn Popper on your way in. No lawn chairs necessary. There are tables & plenty of ledges or steps to sit on. The music, fountains, and garden will de-stress you enough to face the dreaded after-lunch meeting.

It's the perfect place to go get fresh air while enjoying Mother Nature. If you love plants and flowers, come here. You won't regret it. There's a parking lot. It's free. It's impossible to give this place less than 5 stars.

So glad we…read morewent, the exhibits are very well documented and span the range from missiles and bombs, to drones, bombers, tankers, fighters, helicopters, and lunar modules from WWII onward and even a prototype Artemis lander. Flight simulators, a theater continuously screening space and air related films, and lots of activities for the kids plus some outside exhibits and benches for enjoying the view round out the experience. The entrance to the museum is beautifully constructed with a SR-71 Blackbird hanging from the ceiling. Many of the exhibits were very unique aircraft including a Quail decoy for the B-52 bomber, one of only 2 XF-85 Goblin parasite fighter escorts ever built, an EC-235C Looking Glass lying command center, a B-58A (one of only 6 remaining) mid range bomber which was the first bomber to break Mach II, first to have stellar-inertial nav and first to have a stainless steel honeycomb structure, and the B-36J was really unique with 6 pusher engines plus turbojets - the largest bomber ever built, plus many more items.

(The longest sellout streak in all of college football is proof). Definitely the best college football stadium ever. If you are from Nebraska or are a Nebraska fan, this is THE place to be during college football season and the energy in this stadium is unlike anything else you will experience. The true Nebraska experience is here. The Runzas, to the Husker dogs, to the Valentino's pizza. Night games are my favorite because of the incredible light show. Hearing one half of the stadium yell HUSKER and the other half yell POWER is always super cool. The energy is truly electric and Husker fans are the most passionate best fan base there is!!! I am so proud to have gone to Nebraska and will always be a diehard Nebraska fan. To get to walk at graduation after completing my bachelor's degree in this stadium was very special to me. I have always gone to Nebraska games growing up with my Dad and it has always been one of our favorite places. I am grateful to Memorial Stadium for all of the memories of going to games with him as well as with my husband and friends. I truly don't think you can really understand what a Nebraska football game is like until you go for yourself, but I love telling people all about it. There truly is NO place like Nebraska, and I love how loyal us fans are. GBR always !!!!!!!

They're not even in the Big 12 anymore. Doesn't matter... That hurt runs deep. I was at that last heart breaker of a game at Jack Trice before Nebraska moved to the Big 10... That being said.... The campus and grounds around Memorial Stadium are inspiring. It's hard not to look up at those walls and not feel some respect for their football program with so many years of success behind it. We had met friends from Oklahoma in Lincoln. Terry's a huge football fan in general so I took him over to see the stadium and the Nebraska athletics hall of fame. No one can argue it's not impressive. But I'm still not going to give it 5 stars... Lol
