In keeping with tradition Vandy’s stadium looks the same as it did in 1965.

pretty sure it was the biggest football stadium in the country when it expanded to 82k in the 1940s before being supplanted by The Big House several years later

Here’s LSU. Not sure when:
That was Tiger Stadium from 1953 to 1977 when it sat 67,720. The picture looks to be from the 50s as I don’t remember the checkerboard end zones.

This explains the cool shape and how it came to be.

Slept on the tracks the night before the last game you could watch from the tracks that season... against GA Tech. Maybe 20 of us. There were thousands by game time.
