10 Sports Venues To Visit In The Buckeye State

From the minors to the majors, the state of Ohio has a handful of sports arenas featuring a variety of sports. Whether you just do a drive by or attend a game, the true Ohio sports fan won’t miss these ten locations.

Pro Football Hall of Fame

Whether you are a football fan or not, it is a pretty big deal to have a professional hall of fame within reach. Whether you are a diehard sports fan, or just looking for a different family, day trip, the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio is the place for you.

Paul Brown Stadium

Of course, the perfect place for Bengals fans, but is also worthy of a visit by any football fans. Since the facility does not offer tours, getting some reasonable priced tickets and attending a game is the best way to experience this stadium in Cincinnati, Ohio.

Quicken Loans Arena

What better time to see a Cavaliers game at Quicken Loans Arena than right now? If you are available on game day, you won’t regret seeing Lebron James and the defending National Champions lay the smack down in Cleveland. They are also home to the arena football team, the Cleveland Gladiators and the minor league team for the Bluejackets, the Cleveland Monsters.

Great American Ballpark

“Great” is in the title for a reason. This spectacular ballpark in Cincinnati is worthy of a tour, or better yet, attend a Reds game. In addition, be sure to check out the Reds Hall of Fame inside the ballpark. But be cautious when planning your tour of the facility, tours vary on gamedays.

First Energy Stadium

Perhaps only a recommended stop for diehard Browns fans, the stadium is certainly cheap entertainment for the whole family or sports fan club. One thing is for sure, if you find yourself in Cleveland on game day, you are sure to have a unique experience, even if that solely consists of tailgating and people watching.

Progressive Field

Another good place to visit sooner, rather than later. With the Indians fresh off a trip to the World Series, the Tribe surely has a chance to return. Hurry out to Cleveland and catch a regular season game while the team is marching strong.

Huntington Park

For those of you more content with close seating and less chaos, a Clippers game is the place for you. Plus, the tickets are pretty cheap and you can catch a double deal if you show up on dime-a-dog night. A Clippers game is perfect family fun in the state capital.

Nationwide Arena

While in the state capital, you can’t miss the infamous Nationwide Arena, which is not only the home of the Bluejackets, but also hosts many other events including professional wrestling, concerts and more.

Mapfre Stadium

For the soccer fans, or those who are looking for a change of pace, make a stop at Mapfre Stadium to cheer on the Columbus Crew. If you have never been to a soccer game but have always wanted to, here is your chance to try it out close to home.

Horseshoe

You wouldn’t be a complete Ohio sports fan without a trip to the Horseshoe at Ohio State University to watch the infamous Ohio State Buckeyes football team dominate. You don’t have to be a student to enjoy some buckeye football. It is worth the experience to see a game in person, but if you wish to avoid the hefty price, look into a spring game.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
