About Ohio Stadium

Ohio Stadium, known as the Horseshoe or the Shoe, has been the home of Ohio State football since 1922 and seats 102,780. The rotunda at the north end was designed to look like the dome of the Pantheon in Rome and holds stained glass murals of football squads. The stadium sits beside the Olentangy River and has been on the National Register of Historic Places since 1974. Ohio State runs guided stadium tours on non-game days, with a longer VIP version that adds the home locker room.
