Memorial
Stadium
Annapolis, MD
Perhaps known for their annual Army, Navy game, Memorial Stadium has
been the home of the Navy Midshipmen for over four decades. Towards
the mid 1950’s a new stadium for Navy was needed. Navy was able to
raise enough money through private contributions to have a new stadium
built. Construction on the $3 million facility began in early 1959.

Memorial Stadium was completed
in time for Navy’s game against William and Mary on September 26,
1959. The stadium had a seating of 35,000. Throughout the past four
decades, Memorial Stadium has changed very little. In 1992 the Admiral
Thomas J. Hamilton Locker Room was completed providing new locker
rooms for both Navy and its visitors. Although it has went through
some modern upgrades, Memorial Stadium still has a seating capacity of
35,000. The lower grandstand forms a horseshoe around the playing
field, while upper decks are located on both sides of the gridiron.
