B'ham tried in 1998 to replace it with an enclosed all-weather MPF but was outvoted by its metro area kinfolks. So here we are two decades later still talking about how old and outdated Legion Field is as it remains the only large capacity football facility in this area for at least three more years. Its expected replacement will be about 60% of its capacity and will be of largely seasonal use. It will likely suit UAB's football needs for many years, but perhaps not those of the city (except for the "too small dreamers" Dr Joe Volker warned about).

I’ve heard this story before somewhere... 01-wingedeagle
