The LEGO Version Ohio Stadium takes craftsmanship and dedication to a whole new level. Paul Jannsen clocked in 1,000 plus hours over two years to create this exact replica out of building blocks using an approximately 1 million pieces.
To begin building his LEGO Version Ohio Stadium, Paul Jannsen spent three years just to get the required LEGO pieces. By finding used and new pieces, he was able to save what would of cost almost $75,000 if he purchased every piece.
We're not sure if the Ohio State Buckeyes have seen this marvel yet, but I'm sure they will be proud when they do.
