The 12 Top College Rivalries- Newsweek

Attending the Army-Navy football game is one of the best college football experiences you can have. What you see on national TV is only a fraction of what you get to experience in the stands. Mascots are regularly stolen. There are jet or helicopter flyovers. Either the Navy Leafrogs or Army Golden Knights parachute into the stadium. The March On of the Brigade of Midshipmen and the Corps of Cadets is impressive. There are exchange student at each academy and they are returned to their own academy in an exchange ceremony.
By far, the respect shown by both teams to each other is exemplified at the end of the game. Both teams gather at the field by the losing team students while they sing their alma mater. Then everyone gathers at the winning teams students to sing their alma mater. Never saw anything else like it at any other college football game.</p>

<p>See it in person. You won’t be disappointed.

<p>LWMD, I knew most of what you put but it still gave me chills reading that. I hope to make it out there sometime for an Army-Navy game.</p>
