Rice Stadium, Football stadium at Rice University in Houston, United States.
Rice Stadium features a modern architectural design with simple lines, a below-ground-level seating bowl, and a capacity of 47,000 spectators.
The stadium, constructed in 1950 by Brown and Root, hosted President John F. Kennedy's Moon speech in 1962 and Super Bowl VIII in 1974.
The facility extends beyond football games to serve as a central gathering space for university events, concerts, and community celebrations throughout the year.
The Brian Patterson Sports Performance Center offers updated training facilities, while the stadium provides multiple entry points and parking areas for visitors.
The stadium's design places spectators below ground level, creating exceptional viewing angles from nearly every seat in the concrete structure.
