| Located
on the campus of Arizona State University,
the Arizona Cardinals are the only NFL team
that play full time at collegiate stadium.
In the mid 1950’s the Arizona State
Univesity decided to construct a stadium
for its team, the Sun Devils. The Stadium
was constructed between two small mountains,
and was completed in time for the start
of the 1958 season. The stadium was named
after the team, Sun Devil Stadium, and had
a capacity of 30,000. Since its opening
in 1958, many additions have been completed
to Sun Devil Stadium. Beginning in 1976,
the capacity was increased to over 57,000.
The following year the capacity was once
again increased to over 70,000. |
