RE: Where havent you been?
Let's see if my memory can do this!

MAC Away Games I've been to for OHIO football games:

Akron (Rubber Bowl)
Bowling Green
Eastern Michigan
Kent State
Marshall (I went in 1997 when they were in the MAC)
Miami
Toledo

Non-Conference away games (as far as I can remember!):

Northwestern
Bowl Game in Detroit versus Marshall
MAC Championship Game in Detroit (versus CMU)
Ohio State
Cincinnati
West Virginia

There may have been more OOC games but these are the ones I can remember off the top of my head.

RE: Where havent you been?
My list is pretty modest, here are the Miami games I've been to outside of Oxford:
OSU
Michigan
Cincinnati (Paul Brown Stadium)
2016 St. Pete Bowl
2019 Mobile Bowl

Family stuff unfortunately kept me from seeing the 2019 MACC. I'll see us play at Northwestern this fall and probably NIU, there's also a few easy drives coming up for me in the next few seasons like Notre Dame in 2024, Wisconsin in 2025, and Purdue in 2027. My in-laws live in the Cleveland suburbs so I'll hopefully see us at Akron or Kent in the next few years. I probably would've gone to see us at Pitt in 2020 had COVID not ruined that.

For WMU football, I've been to: CMU, NIU, Akron (old stadium), MSU, UofM, and Detroit (bowl game).

Where I'd Like to go if/when 100% convenient to do so: UNLV (Vegas baby, yeah!), USC (missed the other one), Ohio (hear best campus out there), EMU (close to home; make an east-side weekend out of it), and Ohio State (when we're knowingly Good that year).

I'm not as well-travelled as some here. I've seen CMU in person at CMU, WMU, EMU, Michigan, Michigan State, Ford Field (Detroit), and Toledo. I've seen Ohio's, Marshall's, and West Virginia's stadiums in passing only.

I'm sure ypu are very familiar with Lexington since you were in Oxford,a bit a Chicago to Lexington trip isn't bad. I think Miami plays UK first game.

RE: Where havent you been?
I've only been to a few

Ball State (2X)
Toledo
Northwestern (2X)
U of I
Purdue
Iowa
Orange Bowl
Poinsettia Bowl (vs. Utah State at Qualcomm)
Quick Lane Bowl in Detroit
Soldier Field games against Wisconsin and Iowa

Want to get to the Michigan MAC schools and BG at least, since they aren't too far of a drive. Can't believe I haven't at least been to WMU yet - but then we keep playing them on a weeknight lately so that makes it hard.

RE: Where havent you been?
I have been to every current MAC stadium plus the Rubber Bowl, Central Florida at the Citrus Bowl and UMASS at Gillette Stadium, every Huskies Bowl Game going back to the Silicon Valley Classic and every Huskies MAC championship game at Ford Field. I have been to at least 63 total football stadiums, most multiple times, most involving the Huskies. I have also seen college and pro basketball games in at least 40 basketball arenas and MLB regular season and spring training, college and minor leagues in at least 42 baseball stadiums.

Still want get to Michigan State, Rutgers, UCLA and USC to complete Big Ten football plus Navy, Air Force and Green Bay for football.

Best college football game, NIU beats Alabama at Alabama.
Best college football atmosphere, University of Florida.
Best college basketball game, UMBC beats Virginia, only 16 over 1 in NCAA Tournament history.
Best NFL atmosphere, Kansas City Chiefs at Arrowhead.
Most iconic, Notre Dame football, NY Rangers at Madison Square Garden, Montreal Forum (only got to tour unfortunately), Blackhawks at Chicago Stadium, NIU football at Army.
Weirdest Stadium, Kibbe Dome, University of Idaho. Saw the Huskies there twice.
I feel fortunate to have the health, financial means and an understanding spouse for all these years.

Indeed, I think we all preferred the question to be "Where have you been?"

There are hundreds or thousands of stadia/basketball arenas that I and probably most other people haven't been to. So that would be a really long list.

Since we're on a MAC board I limited my response to MAC campuses.
