FAU’s home since: 2003
Location: Fort Lauderdale
Capacity: 18,500
Original construction: 1959
Most recent renovation: 1998
Directions: Exit I-95 at Commercial Blvd. and head west. Turn right on NW 12th Ave/Oriole Blvd. Stadium is on left.
Be sure to check out: FAU’s football tradition is still growing, but fans are quickly taking to the idea of tailgating. Just about anything that can be grilled will be grilled outside Lockhart – and it will be served with a cold beverage. For those who choose to leave the cooking behind, there are plenty of vendors, many offering touches of the Latin cuisine that has become so influential in South Florida.
The Future: FAU’s board of trustees has already approved, and fundraising is currently underway for a new on-campus stadium to be built in the coming years. Check with FAUOwlAccess.com for regular updates about stadium progress.
