I saw USL beat A&M on a grass field in the 90's. The stadium looks exactly the same, except for the turf.



No, actually it is very different than it was then.




The south end zone is closed in and no longer grass. The north end zone is still grass as shown.

It hasn't changed much...ever.

End zone bleachers and the playing surface are small changes relative to the 46 years the stadium has existed

Nearing completion in 1971

Good thing they put stands in the end zones. The sidelines were no longer able to handle the 4 thousand fans that pack it for home games.
