Davis Wade Stadium, College football stadium in Oktibbeha County, United States.
Davis Wade Stadium is a football facility with double-decked grandstands on both sides of the field, accommodating around 61,000 spectators. The grounds include 50 luxury suites, 1,700 club seats, and large video boards positioned at the endzones.
The stadium was built in 1914 as New Athletic Field and received its current name in 2001 to honor Floyd Davis Wade Sr., who funded major expansions. This renaming marked an important recognition of his significant contributions to the facility's growth.
The stadium is home to the Dawg Walk tradition before games, where the team walks through the grounds accompanied by the Famous Maroon Band. This ritual has become an important gathering point for fans who come early to support the team.
The stadium provides ample space for crowd flow, with multiple entry and exit points to ensure smooth access and departure. Visitors should arrive early to explore parking areas and locate their preferred seating section.
Mississippi State University introduced the song "Who Let The Dogs Out?" at games in the early 2000s, making it a fixture of the game day experience. This practice has become a recognizable element of the stadium experience.
