Since breaking ground in October of 2012, Tiger Stadium’s South Endzone expansion has risen to towering heights over the campus. Death Valley has seen its fair share of additions and upgrades in recent years, but this $80 million undertaking is finally bringing the stadium capacity to 102,321. When fans flood into their seats on Sept. 6, they’ll be sitting in the seventh largest stadium in college football.
The expansion has added 320,000 sq. ft. of space, tallying up 66 new suites and 6,400 additional seats. Many of these Stadium Club South seats feature premium amenities like televisions for instant replay, exclusive food and drink options, climate control and high-speed elevator access.
With greater perks come greater prices, but that hasn’t cut down on demand. The new suites sold out in a matter of days.
