Ken Pridgeon Stadium, High school sports stadium in Houston, United States
Ken Pridgeon Stadium is an outdoor American football stadium in Houston, Texas, built in 1977. It serves as the home field for some Cypress-Fairbanks Independent School District varsity football and soccer games. The stadium received a new two-story press box, ticket booths, restrooms, concessions and an elevator between December 2016 and January 2017.
The stadium opened in 1977 and was renamed in 1994 to honor Oran Kenneth Pridgeon, who had served as Athletic Director for the school district. It went through major renovations in the 2010s, which brought new playing surfaces and updated spectator facilities.
On game days, the stadium fills with students, families, and neighbors from across the Cypress-Fairbanks school district, all gathered to support their teams. The shared energy on the bleachers gives the place a strong sense of community belonging.
The stadium sits along Bobcat Road in Houston and is most easily reached by car, with parking available near the grounds. On busy event days, arriving early is a good idea, as parking areas can fill up well before kickoff.
The 2016–17 renovation added a two-story press box, new ticket booths, restrooms, a concessions stand and an elevator up to the press box, alongside the 950-seat natatorium. The work was funded from a $40 million allocation in the district's $1.2 billion bond approved in May 2014.
