Stoll Field/McLean Stadium, College football stadium in Lexington, United States
Stoll Field featured concrete grandstands on two sides with bleachers in both end zones, providing space for 37,000 spectators at sports events.
The field hosted the first college football game in the South during 1880, when Transylvania University faced Centre College on this ground.
The stadium carried deep significance through its dual naming, honoring Judge Richard Stoll and Price McLean, a football player who died after a game injury.
The facility served as the home field for University of Kentucky football from 1916 until 1972, before operations moved to Commonwealth Stadium.
During World War I, the field transformed into a military training ground while part of the land contained grazing areas for university cattle.
