COLUMBUS, Ohio ( WCMH ) — Ohio Stadium will soon be home to an all-inclusive private club with a full membership fee of $4,500.
Named the “1922 Club,” honoring the year The Shoe was dedicated, the members-only and climate controlled lounge aims to open in 2026 and will be built on the east side of the stadium inside Gate 20. Ohio State said the club will provide a game-day experience “defined by its spacious lounge-like atmosphere for only the most exclusive members.”
