The hottest game I ever attended at Stanford was I think 1999 vs. UCLA when Troy Walters had the 98 yd TD catch and run. It was the original stadium and I was on the sunny side.

It was hot, but not unbearable. Did the new construction’s materials do something to create this awful heating people are pointing out that exists today?

When I read the "heat" part of this thread, I was remembering the exact game.  That UCLA game was brutal.  I consider myself reasonably hardy and was well-hydrated for that game, but I still spent about 1/4 of my time on the concourse.

I foolishly did not pre-hydrate for that UCLA game. Got extremely dizzy and had to go up in the shade and drink 3 bottles of water in quick succession. Felt better after about 45 minutes.
