Step 1: Start with a Budget

It’s going to take about $75 million to $80 million to build your 25,500-capacity stadium, and to secure those kinds of funds, you’ll have to rally community support.  “Not just for the sport of football, and not just for athletics, but for the continued development of this campus, which for the past 20 years has been staggering. A lot of people put their arms around it and saw it as a worthy, justifiable thing to support. Whether it’s a moderate-size gift or a gift of multimillion dollars, they all matter, they all count.” It also helps to have the backing of someone like local businessman/philanthropist Abe Mitchell, for whom the field is named.

Step 2: Draw it Up

You’re also going to need some space — a couple of acres just for the stadium. Also, plan for about 1,800 adjacent to the field, with another 6,000 within shuttling distance. When determining how to situate the field, you’ll want to make sure it runs north/south. Put the home team on the east sideline so the sun will be at their backs (and therefore in the visiting players’ faces). 

The kitchen needs to be able to serve the club, the suites, the press row and all the concessions around the stadium. It’ll run you another $1 million.

Step 3: Line up your Crew

When you factor in that USA crews handle all the landscaping and a lot of the parking lots, we estimates that, in total, they were able to get a stadium that would normally cost around $120 million to $125 million for a little under $80 million.

Step 4: Start Digging

After some reshuffling of the intramural fields, the first shovel went in the ground. You’ll want to go with a synthetic rubber turf — it may be a little hotter, but the lack of maintenance is worth the approximately $400,000 price tag. You can even paint it with different logos in case you want to host other events like the Senior Bowl.

The lower seating is on a concrete base — very sturdy, very durable. It should be good for another 150 years. The remaining seating is on raised steel. The stadium was built with an eye toward the future.
