At its peak , capacity was 65,000. They took out a upper level of bleachers on Cooke Hall side in the late 60's
or early 70's. Check out the attendance for the 1960 Minnesota-Iowa game. Number 1 in the nation vs. Number 2. I think 65 or 66,000.
I went to many games at the Brickhouse in the 60's and 70's. So many great memories.
Saw two Big Ten championships and so many great players. I always thought Bobby Bell
was the greatest Gopher that I saw play. I remember watching Dick Butkus just
totally control the game from middle linebacker...
