Ohio Stadium Section Breakdown

Ohio Stadium follows an odd/even section pattern. The stadium’s west side uses odd numbers (sections 1-39), while the east side uses even numbers (sections 2-38). Ohio Stadium has also tiered off each level alphabetically A. The A-level is closest to the field, whereas the E-level is the highest area in the stadium.

The vast majority of stadium seats are bleacher, meaning no chair backs. Chairbacks are an option but are more expensive and predominately in the club and suite-level sections. More on that is below.

Buckeyes Student Section

The Ohio State Student Sections at Ohio Stadium are located in sections 31-39 (All South End Zone Sections) and in sections 1-7 in levels A and C. “Block O,” which was established in 1938, is the official spirit organization of the Ohio State University. Block O South is in section 39A, and Block O North is in sections 1A and 2A of Ohio Stadium.

Big 10 football is the rowdiest in the country, so these sections will be the life of the party at Buckeyes games. If you are bringing kids to the game, we would also advise steering clear of sections adjacent to these.

Student tickets sell out quickly since only a small portion is allotted to the student body. More importantly, you won’t be able to purchase student section tickets on the secondary market as only currently enrolled OSU students are eligible for these seats.

Ohio Stadium Club Seating

Ohio Stadium Club Seating is found in sections C1-C5, and these five sections are split between ‘Platinum’ C2-C4 (closest to the 50-yard line) and ‘Gold’ C1 and C5. These club seats are extra wide, have chair backs, and provide access to club lounges and upscale food and beverage.

Ohio Stadium B Deck Seating

Visiting Team Fan Sections

Sections 6C, 8C, 10C, and 4AA-10AA are the designated visiting team sections at Ohio Stadium. The visiting teams sit in rows 8 and higher (8-41) in sections 8C and 10C.

If you are a fan of the opposing team and want to ensure you sit with fellow fans, these sections are where you want to be. If you are a Buckeyes fan, make sure you avoid these sections!

Parking and Tailgating at Ohio Stadium

There is plenty of parking at Ohio Stadium, but not all lots are equal.

• Parking passes can be purchased on the secondary market but, of course, are sold at market value.
• Parking is available on the day of the game on a first-come, first-served basis.
• Shuttle service to Ohio Stadium is available free of charge for guests who park on the west campus (parking lots west of SR 315).
• The only permitted lot is the lot immediately west of Ohio Stadium. Spaces in these lots are held for permit holders until 90 minutes before kickoff.
• The RV Parking Lot is in the Buckeye Lot off Fred Taylor Drive, north of Jesse Owens Memorial Stadium. The RV lot opens at 5am on GameDay.
• The area south of Lane, north of Chittenden, and west of Summit belongs to the students. Tailgating and partying are ways of life in this area.
• The Schottenstein Center is where all RV tailgating is located.
• For tailgating, tents may be set up NO EARLIER than 5:00pm on Thursday before a home football game (Saturday). NOON must remove tents on the day after the home football (Sunday).
• Cell service can get spotty, so it’s advised to mark your tailgate with a large (unique) flag so friends and family can find you.
• Don’t be in a rush to leave after the game; you are better off finishing your leftovers at your tailgate and waiting for traffic to die down.

Best Seats at Ohio Stadium

The best seats for an Ohio State Game are in the aforementioned club seats or the AA sections closest to midfield. If you are looking to avoid the elements, the B deck tickets along the sideline are also a fantastic option, especially since those seats have chair backs.

Personally, I prefer sitting near the student sections (see above). Contagious energy spreads from the students to every surrounding section. It makes for a unique and thrilling game day experience.

Accessible Seating at Ohio Stadium

For those using a wheelchair and/or those looking to attend a game at Ohio Stadium with somebody who is, there is some important information that you’ll want to know. If you’re seeking ADA seating, you’ll find accessible rows at the top of most sections within the ballpark and spread throughout.

If necessary, folding chairs are provided to guests, such as ones looking to sit with a fan using a wheelchair. One trick you can use to filter tickets that are ADA accessible is by using our “Additional filters +” button on the event page that allows you to select “ADA (wheelchair accessible),” which shows all seats that the seller has marked as accessible.
