Meade Stadium, Football stadium at University of Rhode Island, United States.
Meade Stadium is a college football stadium at the University of Rhode Island, located on the Kingston campus. It has a main grandstand on the east side and a smaller one on the west, with a synthetic turf playing field.
The stadium was built in 1928 and named after John E. Meade, an early supporter of athletics at the university. It has been renovated several times since then, with the synthetic turf being one of the more recent updates.
The stadium is where the university community and supporters gather to cheer for their team and share game days together. It serves as a focal point for Rams football tradition and draws together students, alumni, and local fans.
Parking areas sit right next to the stadium, but they fill up quickly on game days, so arriving early makes things easier. The stadium is on the University of Rhode Island campus in Kingston, which is well signed and easy to navigate on foot.
The stadium once recorded an attendance figure that stood as a record for Rams home games, drawing fans from well beyond the Kingston area. That turnout showed how far the team's following extended in New England at the time.
