    My wife, parents, and I had a great time at the Wake Forest vs. Georgia Tech football game on…read moreSeptember 23, 2023 at Allegacy Stadium. It was a lot of fun. If you're looking for something fun to do on a fall Saturday in Winston-Salem, go to a Wake football game at Allegacy Stadium. They put on a great gameday experience. The official name of this stadium is a mouthful: Allegacy Federal Credit Union Stadium. The name change became official on June 21, 2023: https://bit.ly/3RFO0Fk. It reminds me of the San Diego County Credit Union Holiday Bowl (2017-2022): https://bit.ly/3LEekvI. In recent years, this stadium was named Truist Field at Wake Forest (2020-2023) and BB&T Field (2007-2020). Allegacy took over the naming rights from Truist in 2023. At the time of writing this review, I found two other listings related to this stadium on Yelp: 1. Bridger Field House at BB&T Field https://bit.ly/3LAsMon 2. Truist Field https://bit.ly/3LAsHkz I tried to clean them up and consolidate everything into a single listing by submitting business edits to Yelp, but the moderator(s) left the listings as-is. Oh well. Yelp's mods and accurate business listing info have always been some of the company's biggest weaknesses, but I digress. I attended my first football game, on any level, at this stadium. Back then, Allegacy Stadium was known by its original name, Groves Stadium. It opened in 1968 and was known as Groves Stadium until BB&T got the naming rights in 2007. Wake played Clemson. I can't remember if it was the October 27, 1990 game, when No. 19 Clemson won 24-6 (attendance 25,317), or the October 31, 1992 game, when Wake won, 18-15 (attendance 21,839). I do remember my dad driving us to the game in our family's old Dodge Ram van, my friend from elementary school that we took with us (he later went on to play basketball for Virginia Tech), and sitting/standing behind the Clemson bench. Another one of our friends, from High Point, joined us and heckled one of the Clemson players. Fast-forward 30-plus years and it was me driving my dad to the game. My parents met at Wake in the 70s. I grew up a diehard Demon Deacons fan. However, I ended up going to Georgia Tech and switched allegiances. So, this most-recent gridiron matchup between Wake and Tech was a matchup between our alma maters. It's been a fun family rivalry. I still support Wake and they're my No. 2 team behind Tech. And I love the ACC in general. It had been many years since I visited this stadium. It looked good. The game was a sellout with an announced attendance of 32,528. The listed capacity of the stadium is 31,500, making it the smallest of the 18 football stadiums in the conference as of 2024 (including future members Cal, Stanford, and SMU). SMU's Gerald J. Ford Stadium is second-smallest at 32,000 and Duke's Wallace Wade Stadium is third-smallest at 40,004. I think Allegacy Stadium's size is appropriate for Wake Forest based on the school's enrollment, alumni base, and fanbase. As of 2023, Wake has the seventh-smallest enrollment among 133 FBS schools and *the* smallest among Power-Five-conference schools. This was my first time seeing in-person McCreary Tower (completed in August 2008) above Gate 1, the Deacon Statue in McCreary Plaza (dedicated in October 2008), and the southeast end zone video board (completed in October 2011). While these things are now 12-15 years old, they still look good today. I remember Deacon Hill (grass hill / berm seating) behind the southeast end zone and the Bridger Field House behind the northwest end zone. I still think it's bizarre how the Demon Deacon rides out on a motorcycle. What's the story behind that? I think that's been a relatively-new (21st century) tradition for Wake. I think the Ramblin' Reck is way cooler. ;) But seriously, overall, we really enjoyed the atmosphere, from the team intros to the eclectic music - everything from Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This) by Eurythmics to Welcome to the Party by Diplo, French Montana, and Lil Pump - to the timeout, in-stadium, and video board entertainment. I liked the video board graphics and animations (e.g., the Winston-Salem skyline bouncing up and down) and the stadium and phone light "shows." We sat in Section 12, Row S (visitors section) and had a great view of the action. There was a congenial vibe among all the fans. Everyone seemed to get along and be having a good time. Football games are a great place to bring the whole family. Park across the street at the LJVM Coliseum. It's easy and convenient. For us, it cost $30, cash or credit. We used Waze to navigate to the coliseum's Deacon Blvd entrance, from the east (left turn into the entrance), and we didn't run into any traffic that way. Any entrance should be fine. We arrived about 30 minutes before kickoff and the lots around the coliseum were already pretty full. There was a lot of tailgating going on. A tunnel goes under Deacon Blvd so you don't have to worry about crossing the street.

    This was such a fun stadium! We watched Wake Forest play Cal. Lots of fun energy at the game!…read morePlenty of food and drink options. Parking was also really easy.

We were invited to the Carolina Suite and it was nice to be away from the main fans prior to the game + air conditioning + a private entrance! The bar did run out of certain mixers for different cocktails which was disappointing especially knowing they were hosting a large crowd prior to a large sporting event. The line for the bar was rather long even though there were quite a few bartenders in the suite. I did love the ambience and the ability to watch the game away from all the action. Restaurant choices in the stadium were a little scarce + it was mainly fast food. I do understand it's a stadium but it would be nice if there were more than 2-3 options to pick up food. Signage was very confusing especially getting out of the suite to my actual seat. My seat was a few floors down from the suite and it felt like a maze to get to my seat + many agents seemed like they were giving simple directions but it took quite a while to finally figure out the signage and area after asking 4 people.

Merch tables were sparse, which created crazy, long lines. The city did an awful job blocking off streets and making access to and from the stadium a nuisance. Knockoff t-shirt vendors were everywhere after the concert.

One staff member told us 750 guests were expected, another said over 900. Either way, it was a ton of people. Every single room in the Emerywood clubhouse was filled. There were long lines for the buffets, one set up in each hallway. The parking lot was full, so people were parking on the grass and in the street. I've never seen it so busy! I thought we're still supposed to be in a recession. The clubhouse was decked out for the holidays. A big "Happy Holidays" ice sculpture with changing lights was set up inside the entrance. At the ends of either hallway were two giant, well-decorated Christmas trees. Smaller Christmas trees were positioned in various rooms. A group of Christmas Carolers walked around and sang. They were dressed in traditional English attire and sounded great. Santa Claus was also present and he was quite an authentic-looking one, from beard to costume. The kiddies LOVED him. I almost wanted to get a picture with him, but I didn't want to stand in line with all the little munchkins. Because it was so crowded, the tables were really packed in, especially in the grill room. This made it difficult to maneuver in certain spots. Maybe they can improve upon this next Christmas. I'm not sure if they expected this many people to show up. I don't remember all of the foods, but some of the spread included three different kinds of salads, casseroles, stuffing, macaroni and cheese, green beans, mashed potatoes and gravy, and freshly sliced prime rib, ham, and turkey. The dessert bar consisted of a variety of pies and ice cream. Pecan pie FTW. Generally, the food was good, as it normally is. I'm pretty sure the staff was at full force on Monday night. Everyone was incredibly polite and warm welcoming, even though they had to work on Christmas Eve. Kudos to them. Overall, I had a wonderful experience at HPCC's Christmas Eve dinner.

Seats in the lower bowl are comfortable (if a bit tight), and provide great views of the field. I was surprised at the small size of the student section in the west endzone, but even after Bill Belichick's arrival, Carolina is still first and foremost a basketball school. Food options are better than I would've expected at a college football stadium, from Carolina BBQ and nachos to Chick-fil-A and Merritt's (IYKYK), but the beer selection could use some improvement. There are a handful of local options (Sky Blue Kolsch is the most widely available Carolina craft), but Modelo and Budweiser are the dominant choices. Parking on game days can be tough unless you're a Rams Club member, so buy a pass early if you want a spot on-campus or score one on Franklin St. But a walk through the gorgeous Carolina campus is always a good choice, especially on a crisp fall day during football season. So get to campus early, stop by the Old Well for a photo, and take the game day experience in the Lower Quad. Then follow the crowds into Kenan and get ready to cheer on the Heels!
