Lewis Field, College football stadium in Hays, Kansas, United States.
Lewis Field is a football stadium at Fort Hays State University featuring a modern artificial playing surface with the university's Tiger logo at midfield. The facility accommodates roughly 6,300 spectators and includes updated locker rooms, restrooms, and a two-story press box with about 1,000 chair-back seats.
Construction of the stadium began in 1936 when Fort Hays State University acquired buildings from the Golden Belt Fair Association through a sheriff's sale. This acquisition provided the foundation for developing the athletic facilities over the following decades.
The stadium hosts Fort Hays State University Tigers football games and serves the local high school community for athletic events. It functions as a gathering place where students and residents come together around the sport.
The stadium is located on the Fort Hays State University campus and is easy to reach on foot if you are in the area. Arriving early helps you find good seating in general areas and allows time to explore the facilities before events begin.
The native limestone structures surrounding the stadium underwent restoration in 1993 and preserved the original architectural details from their construction period. These restored elements show how historical building materials were integrated with the modern athletic facility.
