Penn State White Out

September 30, 2007 by David Bergman

It’s football season again!

In September I traveled to State College, PA to photograph Notre Dame vs. Penn State in front of the second largest crowd ever at the stadium (110,078 people!). For big games, Penn State usually calls for a “white out,” where all of the fans in the student section wear white.

For this game, they had their first ever “white house,” where everyone got in on the act.

In the middle of the second quarter when the sun was setting, I walked up to the very top of the stadium (I didn’t realize that there was an elevator until after I was up there).

Penn State 

The photo ran across two pages in Sports Illustrated.

    Where can I order a copy of this photo?  I would love to get a framed copy, great picture and I was at the game!

    Thanks, Tom.
    I normally don’t sell prints of my work, but SI made this image available as a fine art print for fans who wanted it after it was initially published. I’m not sure if they’re still offering it, but the contact at SI is:
