Penn State University’s Beaver Stadium sets attendance record at White Out game

Penn State University’s Beaver Stadium shattered its own attendance record during the annual White Out game, drawing a crowd of 114,419 fans—the second-largest stadium in the world—to the October 10 prime-time showdown. The event, now in its 20th year since debuting in 2004, featured USC as the opponent for the first time in White Out history, marking a rare matchup against a Pac-12 powerhouse.

Despite Penn State’s recent two-game losing streak, the tradition of fans dressing head-to-toe in white and tailgating in massive numbers outside the stadium—an estimated 25,000 additional attendees—kept the atmosphere electric. The game also ranks as the fourth-most-attended in college football history, underscoring the event’s unmatched cultural significance among Nittany Lion supporters, even amid fluctuating on-field results.

With ticket prices typically the highest of the season, the White Out remains a defining experience in college football, blending spectacle with deep-rooted fan loyalty.
