    We planned to go here as part of a short trip to Atlanta. When walking up, the building is so new and modern looking. It is very impressive. So why the 3 star review? While touring I was hoping to see vintage artifacts of football past. I was able to check out some they have out. My dissatisfaction came with 75% of the exhibits being digital touchscreens that show stats or play videos or interviews. Sadly I have had that capability for a long time, it's called Google and YouTube. This wouldn't be so bad it the entry price would have been less. The staff was great, they were so nice and engaged. If you like this type of interaction then you will have a great time. I left there wishing I had done something else

    It was smaller than I had expected. I would love to see more historical exhibits as well. It is a great experience. Military veterans get free entry.

    Cool hall of fame with alot of interactive activities. We loved the fake college game day broadcast studio, karaoke and jump game. My kids really enjoyed the scavenger hunt and The games on the lower level. I wish they sold the jerseys and we were looking for Michael Wick but sadly couldn’t find him anywhere. Hope he gets added as well.

    Had a great time at this museum. Went here with my brother and family friend. I love the interactive activities that they had. I did the jump for you team and I got 33.24 inches. That meant that I had the 3rd best jump. You get to choose which school you want to represent with the interactive activities.

    I have been wanting to go there for several years. I was disappointed somewhat. The staff was great very friendly and very helpful! It was $23 for seniors. That was not too bad. I expected a lot more to than what they had. What little they had was good. I felt a has of Fame would had A LOT more displays!!!! Only takes less than an hour to go through. Also the gift shop had very outrageous prices and they did not have anything from tram. It is nice to go and say you been there. Would I go back properly not unless I had someone that wanted to go themselves

    If you've never been there, it's definitely worth a visit. You can spend so much time reading all the different little exhibits they have or you can breeze through and just get a general sense of the information they have. Definitely! If you're interested in football or even just history, it's worth it. I have a short little movie that's also a good thing to watch

    Very nice museum dedicated mainly to college football. Very nice place to visit while you're in Atlanta. They have lots of good exhibits and displays around the museum and they sell lots of merch too on their gift shop. Lots of trophies, helmets and jerseys, and different sports memorabilia.

  • 5/5 Dawan D. 9 months ago on Google • 50 reviews
    Great museum for football fans. This is a place of rich history and has all College football team helmets on display in the main hallway. Check out the college game day experience booth and movie. Bring the kids to do the punt, pass, and kick in the main lobby.

    The coolest museum experience I’ve had in a long time! Interactive badges personalize the exhibits with your favorite team. The displays are intricate and beautifully put together. The combination of sports memorabilia and history is perfect. We were there for a corporate event/conference and it was a great space. Special shout out to the amazingly kind and welcoming bartender for the reception. I just got two waters and she made me feel truly taken care of and welcomed. The one minute conversation left me feeling so warm! Her kindness is a great asset!

    For tourism this was a treat. You get to experience the transition from going from varsity level to college level American football. You pick you helmet(college). You see signing areas, family photos, just like a draft day signing. So, you can take family pictures pretending to go through the process. They also have turf area where family members can have fun or compete in trying to kick a field goal or throwing a 15-20 yard target pass. So, similar to the practice facility of a field. So, 3 levels in total with many fun things to do. Their is a virtual running game to try and see your 40 times, with scores to try and beat. Similar to an arcade game. They have a virtual sports anchor area. You practice and record yourself doing sports commentary. Then play it on a screen shortly after and you see yourself doing the Broadcast with famous sports broadcasters. And of course the history throughout of college ball, and the many inductees. Nice, gift shop with lots of purchasing options to remember the experience. But if not you still get a press pass to keep when you just begin the tour.

    Nice place. Very informative, they should think about adding more exhibits and maybe an area that focuses on school bands and fight songs. As well as an exhibit area of just Mascots. It's worth the entrance fee but much more could be added.

    Really enjoyed my visit here. The College Football Hall of Fame in Atlanta is a great experience for sports enthusiasts and casual visitors alike. This interactive museum brings the history and excitement of college football to life with its engaging exhibits and state-of-the-art technology. The College Football Hall of Fame is not just a museum; it's a vibrant celebration of the spirit and passion of college football.

  • 5/5 Chris H. 2 years ago on Google
    We had a GREAT time as a family here in July 2021! If you're a college football fan, you absolutely need to visit as you would thoroughly enjoy the experience. If you're NOT a college football fan, you would likely still have a great time. The staff is incredibly friendly and accommodating. You even have a chance to kick a field goal and throw and catch a touchdown pass. Good fun for the whole family in a cool, indoor environment in the heart of Atlanta close to many other attractions.

    I enjoyed this more than I thought I would considering I'm woefully ignorant when it comes to where players went to school unless my husband tells me. The memorabilia was great, loved the trophies, and I enjoyed how everything was laid out so you could see how different areas like safety, training, rules and uniforms changed over time. Bonus that they actually had a piece from my alma mater, URI (Rhode Island)!! The only drawback was it was echo-y and could get extremely loud very quickly.

    This was my 1st visit to the College Football Hall of Fame. What an awesome experience. This facility has so much RICH history! Everyone who love Football should visit. Seeing all the memorabilia everywhere was amazing, but my favorite was the movie played in the theater. While watching the movie, my sister and I thought we were at a real game. The music, the crowd, the close up views felt so real! As I stated earlier, what a awesome experience! A must visit.

    Took out 7 yr old football obsessed grandson and he loved it. We purchased Tix on Groupon that included parking next door in green deck. We visited the gift shop and enjoyed Chick-fil-A too!

  • 4/5 Brad T. 2 years ago on Google
    Really enjoyed our visit in July 2022! Loved the wall of helmets and the trophy cases. Enjoyed the areas showcasing college gameday, tailgating, traditions and the game through the years. The scan card was a cool way to see exhibits unfortunately several were not working. It was fun getting to see so many things in one place especially having a som who plays for Tulane. Maybe they’ll be added as an exhibit after having to play, this season, being relocated for a month after Hurricane Ida. Also, cool to see Joe Burrow’s Player of the Year trophy too! Was an awesome place to spend the afternoon.

    What a great experience! I suggested a trip here to my husband, who is an avid college footbal fan. He was like a kid in a candy store! There's a lot to see, exhibits and activity, including becoming a virtual quarterback. And there is half of a field there where you can try your passing and kicking skills. It's a good way to pass a few hours out of the heat, and even for me, who dislikes the game, found it interesting. Plus I enjoyed watching my husband have fun!

    Had a really good time there on New Years Day 2022! Really appreciate free tickets to active duty soldiers. I like how the museum highlights the unique aspects of college football from tailgating, recruiting, traditions and the evolution of the game as a whole. The scan pass card made many of the exhibits come to life in memorable and engaging ways. As a former college football player myself, the hall brought up a lot of nostalgia and got me excited for the future of the game itself. I would have liked to have seen something mentioning walk ons. Even an exhibit on the Burlsworth Trophy, given every year to nations most outstanding player who began their career as a walk on. Even more exhibits on the individual trophies such as the Butkus, Thorpe, Guy, Maxwell, etc. As the game evolves, it’d be nice to see the hall incorporate the transfer portal, NIL deals, social media, conference media contracts, etc. into its presentations. I kicked a field goal the first time I visited but this time around I knew my knees would fall apart if I attempted haha. Bought a sticker out of the store but I was hoping there would be more representation across the nation in there (I understand SEC/ACC country being down south but the hall should represent the game across the nation). Vinyl stickers/magnets/postcards of stadiums, mascots, traditions, trophies, etc. could all be sold in there. All in all an awesome place to spend an afternoon, good for all ages no matter what previous experience you have with college football. I think every visitor can find something unique to take away from the college football hall of fame!

    Even though I've lived here coming up on two years now, I'd never been! Finally went with family visiting for the weekend and we had a great time. There are lots of things to read, play with, and interact with. Great for family outings or bringing the kids!

  • 5/5 Royce P. 7 months ago on Google • 62 reviews
    This place is awesome if you like college football. They tailor your experience to your favorite team with an RFID pass you just scan at each station they have tons of memorabilia and lots of cool stuff to look at. I suggest going on the weekday as we had the place to our self it was awesome plenty of time to look at stuff and no crowds. I do wish that the gift shop had more college gear tho.

  • 4/5 Cristina 6 months ago on Google • 59 reviews
    A neat museum if you’re really into college football. You get to learn about each of the players that have been inducted and see some of their memorabilia as well as see how much football jerseys, helmets and cleats have changed over the years. There’s interactive areas that let you record plays, pretend to be a sports broadcaster and more. Our favorite part was downstairs where you get to kick a field goal and run a play.

  • 5/5 Anna M. 4 months ago on Google • 49 reviews
    We had a great experience here! It was cool being able to pick your team at the beginning and seeing the helmet light up. Your name and team are then connected to your key card, which has access points throughout the museum and recognizes you as you pass through. You can look through your schools history. There are also fun challenges and interactive things to do on the second floor. Very neat for any college football fan!

  • 5/5 Colton R. 4 months ago on Google • 7 reviews
    Just as personalized and interactive as they said it'd be! Got to choose not only my hometown team (Wisconsin Badgers) but also my D3 alma mater (Winona State Warriors). Try to visit during the week to beat the crowds; the place was pretty dead on a Wednesday for me! Then make sure you set aside 2 hours if you really want to take in everything (lots to read).

  • 5/5 ariana F. 2 years ago on Google
    I dont even like futbol and I loved this place. Super colorful and cool.

  • 5/5 DNS C. 2 years ago on Google
    Amazing experience. Terry was incredible! He gave us a great breakdown of the history of the game, we felt like we've known him for years! It was a lot better than we anticipated

  • 5/5 Alicia G. 6 months ago on Google
    Despite not being able to get my refund for 4 tickets because 4 ppl didn’t show up, the overall experience was phenomenal!!!! College Football Hall of Fame really helped make my son’s 12th birthday an experience to remember for the boys and parents. I would definitely suggest all football coaches and parents to take their athletes here!

  • 5/5 Edmund J. 9 months ago on Google
    A must visit if you're a college football fan! Even if you're not, it's very interactive and great for kids. When you walk in and see the massive helmet display, it's awesome! You can link your badge to a specific school, and it'll give you highlights from different exhibits. Take a shot at being a College GameDay host, or try your luck with the vertical test! Go, Dawgs!

  • 5/5 Cierra H. 2 years ago on Google
    Your visit is personalize to fit your favorite team! I love this everywhere you go it will have you name up and say welcome on the screen for you!!! I will definitely go back!!

  • 4/5 Milen P. 8 months ago on Google
    Really wasn't the biggest fan of this place but I can see the appeal for die hard fans. I think the best thing here was the level one football field. It was cool seeing people run drills and getting to kick field goals. I wish more of the RFID scanners were working but it just didn't seem to be our day. It was pretty neat getting to run a 40 yard dash and checking your vertical jump. The staff here were all really interactive, knowledgeable, and very kind! They deserve 5 stars. We were honestly done in about 40 mins so I'm glad we used a city pass here otherwise I felt it was really quick.

  • 4/5 Noah G. 2 years ago on Google
    Neat exhibit with lots of history and cool artifacts. A little expensive for what it is though. Parking is all downtown as well making it a little tough

  • 5/5 Josh W. 2 years ago on Google
    First time here. Was a very fun and immersive experience. Enjoyed the field, helmets, fight songs, well just everything.

  • 5/5 Julian A. 1 year ago on Google
    The College Football Hall of Fame is an interactive museum that can be fun for mild and die-hard fans. You can select your alma mater or favorite school to customize the experience when you enter. There are several authentic trophies on display, an exhibit for the current induction class, and a growing HBCU exhibit. You can test your speed on a 40-yard dash machine where you run in place on pads or test your jumping abilities on a vertical leap machine. There are also areas to sing your favorite fight song or participate in a pregame broadcast. Unfortunately for our visit, the field goal kicking exhibit had just closed for a private event. I’d say the entire museum can be traversed in 45 minutes to 90 minutes depending on how long you spend in each area. The staff was very friendly and helpful along the way.

  • 4/5 Chris K. 1 year ago on Google
    I've been to several halls of fame across the U.S. and Canada, so I feel like I can compare this hall of fame setup to others. What is most enjoyable is the vast amount of fun activities for visitors to take part in throughout the museum. It did feel like it was heavily skewed to SEC fans more so than the other conferences. That may have a lot to do with the fact that so many SEC teams have been successful in the sport, but at times, it did feel like it leaned too heavy in that one conference. Still, it's a beautiful museum located in the heart of downtown with plenty to see and do. We recommend to serious college football fans.

  • 5/5 Latisha F. 2 years ago on Google
    First time I've ever been to the Mercedes-Benz Stadium and it was great! I got to see my favorite team play and my seats were well worth the price paid for them! I will definitely be going back. I can say I was a little thrown off by everything being card only because I made sure that I had enough cash just for the food vendors. I still had a great time overall!

  • 5/5 Michael T. 2 years ago on Google
    We got a chance to come to this amazing place on our last day in atlanta and I really liked it. I enjoyed walking around seeing the displays, info about certain big college football games and info about college football teams . One of my favorite parts of this place was the football stimulator(or whatever name it is called) where you throw the football towards the goal area. I got a chance to try that out and although I almost got it it was still fun to try out. Another part of this place I liked was where you go to the screen and they allow you pick the team and you get to sing the mascot song for it which was pretty cool and I also got to try out the stimulator where you jump a few times and in general I enjoyed seeing all the displays and info about college football games and the info about college teams and even some players. Overall this is a really amazing place and I Definetly recommend it if you are a football fan or sports fan in general

  • 5/5 S 1 year ago on Google
    Came here for the annual Sundresses and Seersuckers after party. I had never been to the hall of fame and didn't know what to expect but the venue was really nice for the event. We had access to the entire place so I was able to peruse around and explore while sipping a cocktail. There was tons of memorabilia and lots of nice sports themed art pieces. I'm not a huge college football enthusiast but I appreciate knowledge. I'm happy I came to experience it.

  • 5/5 Brett H. 2 years ago on Google
    Futuristic and action orientated space that allows you to get as much history as you want on college football. It is a unique space curated to appeal to fans from every team. Family friendly and expansive museum type feel. 10/10 recommend!

  • 5/5 decoyr 2 years ago on Google
    The employees were so friendly. Lots of fun facts, memorabilia and interactive things to do. Favorite part was at the end when you get to try your hands at throwing a touchdown or throwing a field kick. Highly recommend.

  • 1/5 Cole P. 1 month ago on Google • 1 review New
    If there is only one person in the whole HOF they should let you kick and throw more than once.

  • 5/5 KalendaCutie 2 months ago on Google • 2 reviews New
