No completely understandable if someone has never been. One the stadium is over 80 years old and was originally home to the professional team the Ashland Armco's. So you know by the age a lot of great football has been played including a game with cov cath in 1988. Second I think is the design It's a horshoe style stadium that seats about 4,000 people its like a mini Ohio state as far as design goes. Also it is one of the few stadiums left that isn't used as an athletic complex for other sports which means no track around the field so the fans are right on top of the players not pushed back away from the field. And once you think of all the great Ashland Teams like the 75 jaws team as well as all the great teams from other schools that have played there like Russell, Ironton, Belfry, Bell, Highlands, Cov Cath, JC etc.. you realize that your watching a place where a lot of the greats in ky history have played and to see a football game in that venue is pretty special not just for Ashland fans but for the entire state. I also believe it is the only stadium on the Kentucky list of historical landmarks.
