Glass Bowl Overview
The Glass Bowl is truly one of America's great college football stadiums.
Originally built in 1937, the Glass Bowl was renovated in 1990. As a result of those changes, the new Glass Bowl has become a graceful synthesis of modern technology and old-time charm and craftsmanship.
More recent improvements to the Glass Bowl include the addition of the installation of a new Field Turf playing surface in 2008 and a new videoboard in 2010.
The Glass Bowl features a three-level press tower that houses 45 private suites, 300-seat Stadium Club and Gerber Media Center.
