M. M. Roberts Stadium, Football stadium in Hattiesburg, United States.
The 36,000-seat M. M. Roberts Stadium features double-decked grandstands, 33 luxury suites, and advanced athletic facilities for the Golden Eagles team.
Local unemployed workers constructed the original wooden grandstand during the Great Depression in 1932, with funding from businessman L.E. Faulkner.
Student athletes participated in building the concrete stands in 1938, earning the stadium its nickname 'The Rock' through their manual labor.
The Eagles Nest Club section offers premium seating along the east sideline with specialized food options and enhanced viewing angles.
The stadium set an attendance record of 36,641 spectators during the 2015 season opener against Mississippi State University.
