 Morgantown, WV

Located in Morgantown, WV home of the West Virginia Mountaineers, Mountaineer Field is the largest non NFL stadium in the Big East Conference. In the late 1970s, West Virginia decided to build a new stadium for their football program. By 1980, a new stadium was completed near the campus. The stadium was named Mountaineer Field and opened in 1980. As it was when it opened, Mountaineer Field remains one of the largest stadiums in the conference with a capacity of 60,000.
 
The stadium consists of a lower deck that encloses the entire playing field, and upper decks on the east and west sides. Throughout the past 25 years, there have been few additions to Mountaineer Field. A new video/scoreboard was added in the north end of the stadium before the 1995 season. The original Astroturf playing surface was replaced with Astroplay in 2002. Eighteen suites were added in 2004 in the north endzone providing more money for the athletics department. Before the 2007 season the Astroplay was replaced with Fieldturf. Over the past several years, the Mountaineers have maintained a quality team that has been very competitive. Fans continue to come out to support the team and hear John Denver’s song “Take Me Home Country Roads” which has become famous at Mountaineer games.
