Aside from the MILF and DILF infested alumni tailgates (the Class of ‘89 hosts ragers), pussy literally falls from the balconies of Hard Rock. So, sure Britney may yack all over your overpriced bookstore tube top, but no frat can compare to the magic of Hard Rock on game day.

Critics can't make the case that their opposition is about the noise and traffic Formula One will create, because when Hard Rock Stadium hosts concerts that go all night, you can hear the music all the way in Miramar.
