Williams Brice Stadium
Columbia, SC

Located in Columbia, South Carolina, Williams Brice Stadium is the home of the University of South Carolina Gamecocks. In the early 1930’s discussion began on the possibility of building a new stadium for the football team. Built with federal funds a new stadium was built by the 1934 season. The Gamecocks began playing at the stadium then known as Carolina Stadium in the fall. The stadium had a capacity of 17,600 when it opened.

 

Several additions occurred at the stadium over the years but prior to the 1970 season the first of several substantial additions occurred. Over 14,000 seats were added along with the installation of Astrotuf. These renovations were possible because of the $2.5 million left by the estate of Mrs. Martha Williams Brice. Because of here large donation the stadium was named after her. An additional expansion occurred before the 1972 season when the capacity of the stadium was increased to nearly 54,000. Ten years later, the capacity grew to 72,400 when the east stands were constructed. The latest additions to Williams Brice Stadium occurred in the mid 1990’s. Before the 1995 season, $9.9 million was spent on the west side with the construction of luxury suites, club seats, and a new press box. One year later the $13.5 million south end zone project was completed. This added new club areas and the upper deck. Today Williams Brice Stadium is a massive stadium with a seating capacity of just over 80,000. The Gamecocks have one of the best stadium in the nations to play at.
