Camp Randle Stadium/Courtesy University of Wisconsin Wisconsin's Camp Randle Stadium and a full crowd of 76,634 are expected to provide a hostile environment for UA on Saturday.

Camp Randall, the home of the Wisconsin Badgers, has been described as one of the best places in the country to play college football and also one of the most hostile places to play because of the 76,129 screaming Badger fans.

Just ask head coach John Mackovic.

When he was the coach at Illinois, he ventured to his Big-10 foe four times. Each time, however, he walked away with a win.

"This will be fun," Mackovic said. "This will be college football. It's something that players look forward to. (Wisconsin fans) are active football fans and I would advise our fans not to wear red because they will blend in quite a bit."

Even though it's been over 20 years since Mackovic has been to Camp Randall, he is glad they made some changes.

"They don't sell beer any more," he said. "They did for a long time, but they had some issues with that."

One of those issues occurred in 1983 when former Iowa coach Hayden Fry had peppermint schnapps poured on him. He also has had rotten eggs thrown at him.

The fact that beer is not sold in the stadium anymore does not mean that the students are coming into Camp Randall sober.

Camp Randall is not only known for what is inside, but also what is outside ÷ the tailgating.

From brats to Leinenkugel beer, Madison has it all. Just walk up and down State Street and any pre-game fixin' you can imagine is available.

Camp Randall is not only known for its food but also its history.

The stadium is distinguished by its impressive double-deck frame-and-horseshoe design, and has been the Badgers' home since its opening game on Nov. 3, 1917.

Over the years there have been many changes to the stadium, including the addition of artificial turf and a new scoreboard. However, the old-time feeling is still there.

One of the best features of attending a Wisconsin football game might be the "Fifth Quarter."

After the game, the Wisconsin Badger Band holds the "Fifth Quarter." Nearly the entire stadium sticks after the game to sing and dance to stadium favorites such as "On Wisconsin," "You've Said It All" and "Varsity."

With the conductor leading the way with high kicks and tons of energy, it's really a sight to see.

Arizona quarterback Jason Johnson is can't wait for the experience of playing at Camp Randall.

"I'm just so excited to go and play in what really is a college football environment," Johnson said. "I think playing in front of 70,000 (plus) fans at Camp Randall, in a day game, on ESPN, that's what you live for as a player."
