No its not- 11,250 capacity. I believe thats 5th in the CAA behind JMU, UD, VU, W&M, and just ahead of TU at 11,200. Will be 6th next yr when UNH's new stadium is done. From the Travel To Elon It Matters thread:

Say what you want about Elon, but no track and real grass in my book is always better than a track and fake grass. Listed 11250k capacity, + looks like fans can sit on the sloped grass hill off each end zone. Really is a nice looking stadium for a I-AA private..

Course this is probably from about 6 years ago when they were good (playoffs) or an App State game with App fans filling a good chunk of their stadium. I see yesterday attendance, which was homecoming for them, was listed at 8342..

We laughed pretty hard when one of the announcers on their video production called it a packed house.

Elon > RU

To all the jmu fans that showed up for the massacre, the stadium was very purple. Good show, way to represent!
