25,000 is a bit on the small side for major universities. The university I went to just kicked off a construction project to increase the stadium capacity to over 100,000.
A few miles north of where I currently live, the high school football stadium seats 18,000 [0].

- yardie 13y agoThe university I attended had 75,000 seats, when I left. They've added skyboxes, extended and raised it since. I was being conservative because I assumed nonUS HNers would assume I was making these numbers up.
- arethuza 13y agoThe only high schools here in Scotland that have anything like stadiums, just a single stand really, are the rugby crazed private schools in Edinburgh. For example, here is a blog entry about the Stewarts Melville main pitch (of 6) at Inverleith in Edinburgh where I often spend time watching my son play: http://ian38018.blogspot.co.uk/search?updated-max=2011-05-25T23:52:00%2B01:00&max-results=1 http://ian38018.blogspot.co.uk/search?updated-max=2011-05-25... Also, I couldn't help noticing that the Eagle Stadium is paid for by taxpayers.... :-)
