In the heart of University if Cincinnati it is surrounded by local and chain restaurants filling the 5 block radius srounding Nippert. You are likely to find good places to hang out before and after games. While the walkways can get pretty crowded and slow when a full capacity crowd is filtering in, any other time is pretty smooth for navigation through the stadium. Overall a good stadium, offering local brews during FCC soccer games, friendly staff, and good safety personnel.

The most disappointing thing was the concession stand selection. They sold cups of cheese by itself, didn’t have hotdogs, and they had PEPSI PRODUCTS. That in...

It doesn't have monumental seating numbers but it doesn't need them. Pack it full of students and alumni & this stadium rocks! Add to that the fact that, in Cincinnati, beer is sold at college events...at least college basketball and football.
BTW...Cincinnatians know how to drink their beer and there is never a problem with drunk Cincinnatians. There is, quite often, problems with out-of-town visitors who aren't used to drinking at games. So don't condemn our college beer drinking. When you're used to it you...
