[edit] Stadium Photo

Could someone upload a better photo of the stadium for the infobox? The current one seems to be more about trucks. 70.157.148.4 12:38, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

The new photo shows the field more than the stadium's impressive architecture, but it's definitely better than the former truck photo. Maybe someday an aerial photo could be uploaded.65.4.87.148 18:50, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

Since the last photo was deleted, a link to historical photos has been added. 70.144.22.181 13:33, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Damning with faint praise

Many prominent college football teams have played at Williams-Brice Stadium but have not won at the stadium, including Southern California, Georgia Tech, Boise State, Kansas State, South Florida, Iowa State, Cincinnati, Oklahoma State, Army, Louisiana Tech, Western Michigan, Central Florida, New Mexico State, Baylor, among others.

The other USC and possibly, possibly, Georgia Tech and K-State I'll give to you as slightly interesting, although I don't recall KSU playing there since the Bill Snyder era and they were horrible before that . The rest of these just look silly. What about Wofford? Have they ever won at Williams-Brice? I'm tempted to compile an analogous list of teams that have never won at Vanderbilt Stadium just to prove a point. Cheers, PhilipR 04:26, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Upper Deck Question

Are the three upper deck sections connected to each other? --BigMac1212 01:49, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Upper deck sway

I was a student at Carolina and a reporter/editor on the school newspaper, The Gamecock, during the "Louie, Louie" swaying incident. As near as I can tell from back issues I have archived, the swaying might have occurred earlier, but the "Louie, Louie" connection didn't crop up until 1988 (I was a student at USC from '86-'91 and was present at the game in question). The actual ban on the playing of the song didn't occur until the 1989 football season (this based on an editorial in the paper from Sept. 1989).
