Jordan Hare Stadium
Auburn, AL

Home of the Auburn Tigers for almost seven decades, Jordan Hare Stadium is now the tenth largest college football stadium in the nation. Football at Auburn University dates back to 1892. By the mid 1930s the university decided to build a new football stadium for its team, the Tigers. A 7,500 seat stadium, originally known as Auburn Stadium, was built in 1939 and opened on November 30, 1939 when the Tigers played the Florida Gators. A decade later, in 1949, Auburn Stadium was renamed Cliff Hare Stadium in honor of Clifford Leroy Hare, a member of Auburn’s first football team. Additionally 14,000 seats were added on the east side on the stadium bringing the capacity to 21,500.

 

Over the next four decades, the stadium was expanded five times, in 1955, 1960, 1970, 1980, and 1989 bringing the seating capacity to 85,214. During this time, Cliff Hare Stadium was renamed Jordan-Hare Stadium in 1973 after legendary coach Ralph Jordan, the all time winningest coach at Auburn. Today, Jordan Hare Stadium seats 87,451 fans. The main lower grandstand surrounds the entire field and upper decks are located on both sides of the field. Luxury suites and the press box are located between the lower and upper decks. Located on the exterior of the east side of the stadium are ten large murals of great plays and players of Auburn football including Bo Jackson. Every Saturday during the fall, fans flock to Auburn to watch the Tigers play. Fans can always expect to hear Eye of the Tiger played when the team comes onto the field. A new high definition video/scoreboard was installed prior to the 2007 season.

WHAT FANS ARE SAYING

 

"The absolute awe of the stadium.  Driving up through campus, you can see Jordan-Hare tower above the plains.  The interior is beautiful, and the noise level is unbelievable...  The way the stadium is built, (straight up on the sides and enclosed at both endzones), traps all the noise inside and creates a very intimidating atmosphere for any opponent.
