Where did W-B get its Name?
South Carolina: Williams-Brice Stadium
Named for: Martha Williams Brice and Thomas H. Brice
What'd they do: During the early 1970s, then Carolina Stadium was undergoing an extensive renovation. The facelift was made possible, in large part, by a $2.75 million gift from the estate of Mrs. Brice. Her husband Thomas was a letterman on the Gamecock football team in the early 1920s. The name was officially changed before the season opener in 1972.
Here is a timeline of <a href='http://home.sprynet.com/~sims03/stadium/views.htm' target='_blank'>Williams Brice</a>. There are a bunch of great pics here.
