Williams-Brice Stadium, Football stadium in Columbia, United States.
Williams-Brice Stadium features double-decked grandstands on both sides, accommodating 77,559 spectators for University of South Carolina Gamecocks football games.
The stadium opened in 1934 as Columbia Municipal Stadium through the Works Progress Administration, receiving its current name in 1972 after Martha Williams-Brice's contribution.
During game entries, the theme from 2001: A Space Odyssey plays while fans participate in alternating chants of 'GAME' and 'COCKS' throughout matches.
The facility includes modern training areas, renovated locker rooms, and a video board measuring 36 feet by 124 feet installed during the 2012 updates.
The Cockaboose Railroad near the stadium contains converted railway cars that serve as private entertainment spaces for supporters during game days.

This collection gathers the largest stadiums on the planet, ranked by seating capacity. From the Narendra Modi Stadium in Motera, India, which hosts major cricket matches, to the vast American university arenas dedicated to football, and the May Day Stadium in Pyongyang, North Korea, these sports facilities demonstrate the scale that infrastructures for competitions and mass gatherings can reach. Each stadium has its own identity: some are exclusively dedicated to a specific sport, while others serve as flexible venues capable of hosting various events. Their sizes enable them to accommodate between 100,000 and over 150,000 spectators, providing organizers the opportunity to gather large crowds for international competitions, national finals, or major ceremonies.
