Definitely. I would also add a stadium that is 30 something miles northwest
of Sweetwater. But they did just get field turf with a pretty yellow
daisy in the middle. So I won't.

[PurpleFreddy]

Prim Stadium, Sulphur Springs;
Jerry Black Stadium, Jefferson;
Azle;
Springtown

[ronwx5x]

Cleveland Tarkington. Capacity 600. Field is sod (not really grass) and it goes downhill from there.

[bevodidit]

Worst parking: Jacksonville @ the "Mater Bowl"

[Texas Cougar]

Whitney.

It is true old school. If you want to talk about more people under the stands than in them then I agree with you.

You've got that right...more people are under the stands and at the sides visiting with each other than in the stands watching the game!

So I've heard. I'll find out first hand this year. The Tomato Bowl in JVille is in "downtown". Its surrounded by buildings and the railroad track on one side.

They do have very nice grass field.

[TexasHSFB]

I'm pretty sure that Sealy's stadium is horrible. If I remember correctly, it's made out of wood, and there is pretty much no leg room, it's almost straight vertical bleachers, and they're small on top of that.

Definitely the suckiest stadium I've been to (in 3a).



Nicest stadium in 3a that I've been to: Navasota. :clap:

you want to talk about uneven when we played midland greenwood in greenwood when i was a sophomore (the year they went real deep) the field was horrible there.

[gtownfan]

Originally posted by tigerfan09

The visitors seating is rather limited at Cameron. But the one nice thing is the visitors seating is right on the field, no track between the stands and field.

One place that used to be terrible - Columbus! The visitor stands (you dare not move when standing and not very much room) and the mosquito's from the golf course were bad. But now, it's one of the better places to play in the area! Goes to show what a couple generous donors can do!

[sotex]

A few years ago the Owls played at Marion. You talk about a horrible stadium. The visitors stands were made of wood and you had to be careful where you sat or you might get a nail in your ***! Parking was in a pasture full of potholes and fire ants.

We'll move the 2-temp stands to your side, so it should seat 300 instead of 250. :p ;)




But seriously....when I mention "bring your lawn chairs", I'm really not kidding. :eek: :D

[hawkfan]

I know this is a 3a board but y'all need to get out more, SO I'll take the liberty and make a list of the worst stadiums at the 1a level. These would make the crappiest 3a stadium look like Jerry Jone's new digs

Fruitvale
Frost(the football field is the outfield for the baseball field)
Archer City
Dawson
Oakwood
Overton(But they are getting a new stadium)

Give me a little while and I'll think of some more.

[buffalo2006]

I would say Cameron or Hearne

[Z-RO]

I agree Archer City should be on this list!

Archer City
Mineral Wells' old stadium (loved the trees surrounding it though)
Milsap
Quannah
Hamlin
Albany
Olney

Dang! Our band has more than 300! Is the sun going to be in our eyes?:D

Can visitors sit on the home side too!:cool:


Did you invite Hop, Sweetwater Red, Lion Addict, DUstud, and the Sweetwater Bulldogs to the game?:D




;)

P.S.
Is there valet parking! I think nobogey is bringing the Limo!

It now has turf and a video board. Only bad thing about it is the parking situation and the fact it's to small for a dominant 5A team.

They used to play at a stadium on the high school campus on Cherry Lane. They just built a new high school out on I-820. I'm not sure if they built a new stadium with the new high school, but I THINK I heard somewhere that they did.

That's a negative. Natural grass is what all fields need.

Hearne!!!!! By far the worst that I've seen.

[West22]

I played there from 1956 to 1959 and it was old then ,also played at cameron a couple of times but not sure they have the same old stadium.

[sotex]

Somerset has since put in turf but I can remember playing on their old "grass" field. More like cow pasture. I swear the divots on that field came from cattle. And if you put your down it was usually either in a sticker patch or ant mound.

The all time champion hands down is Dalhart!

The track + 2 jumping pits + extra turf sidelines between the stadium and field make it terrible

[SHSBulldog00]

Sweeny has a nice stadium. Visitor seating is laughable and parking overruns on the practice field. The playing surface is grass; not bad but everyone wants turf.

It is better than in 1989 when they quarantined the field because of bats for the entire year! All games were played on the road.

I was talking to a man that played at Sweeny when they were 6 man.....he said the field was pasture land and they parked the cars so they could use them to light up the field for a night game.

I can imagine there are some pitiful 1A fields all over Texas. Milano should be on this list. I know Buckholts is 6 man, but holy cow, their field is the pits.

No way Yoe field is as bad as Hearne's. Although, I do think that it is time for a well deserved new or renovated stadium in Cameron.

Well, it has been a long time since I have been to a game in Cameron...I graduated from there 11 years ago!

[Z motion 10 out on 2]

Bowie. Terrible visitor locker rooms, water all over the floor (rained inside), visitor stands are terrible, about like Clyde's.

[buffalo2006]

No Hearne is by far the worst, I just hated the field and stands in Cameron.
I think Giddings' practice field is better than Hearne

[cameron91]

Yoe field is okay..but the worst has to be
Elgin.that fence is to close to the field and
Smithville , too many gravel rocks on the field.

You haven't been to many stadiums then. Also, since when do you judge a field by its visitor's side only? The home side at Sealy is awesome and all metal.

[sic'em]

S&S. end of discussion. wood bleachers on the visitors side and FFA projects graze on it so it has hoof divots everywhere.

[Phil C]

Another bad football stadium is Orange Grove. Sorry OG friends but it is true. The visitors side is about 12 rows high or so and they have to put the bands on the track on both sides of the stadium and that is an injury risk factor. I give them credit because the set aside a portion of the home side for visitors but they have needed a new stadium for years or they need to expand the one they have especially the visitors' side. They have new baseball, softball and high gym and facilities but not a new football stadium. I was told that was their next project several years ago but it hasn't started yet.

I give Goliad credit. They had a sorry visitors' side but it has been expanded and improved and has a pressbox there. It may be one of the bests now.

What is amazing is that there are still playoff games at Buccaneer stadium and Cabeness field in Corpus Chrisit. A better location would be at Javelina stadium in Kingsville. Buccaneer Stadium is a good stadium but the parking is horrible as is at Cabaness field even though the parking is better there.

With the improvements Pirate Stadium in Sinton should be a good one even though I was hoping they would have a new separate stands section on the visitors' side for the band.

[Ex-Tiger2005]

i hate talking about my alma mater but snyder needs renovation bad on the stadium! we got a new score board, new facilites in the process, and new turf, but now lets get and expand the stands. it wasnt even enjoyable last year cuz it was like a sardine can in the stands. i think this year i will sit on the visitor side becuz there is more room.

Never seen anyone get muddy on Yoe Field.
Yes it is old. The track there is a 390 yard track. It has a 240 yard straight away. They ran a Straight 220 race the last time the Yoe Relays were run there (early '70s).
