Martin Stadium

Martin Stadium is a college football venue located on the Washington State University campus featuring modern artificial turf and approximately 32,700 seats. The facility has been upgraded over time and now offers various seating sections with contemporary amenities for athletic competitions.

The original playing site, Rogers Field, was destroyed in 1970, prompting construction of the new stadium to begin in 1972. Dan Martin funded the project and named it after his father Clarence Martin, who served as Washington state governor.

The stadium serves as the home ground for the Washington State Cougars and draws supporters from across the region who gather to cheer on their team. Game days create a focal point for the campus community, bringing together students, alumni, and local fans in shared enthusiasm.

The stadium features different seating sections with varying levels of amenities and numerous food vendors throughout the grounds. Visitors planning to attend an event should familiarize themselves with the layout of various entrances and parking areas ahead of time.

The playing field sits approximately 16 feet (5 meters) below normal ground level after the running track was removed in 1979 to bring spectators closer to the action. This sunken layout creates an unusual intimacy between fans and players on the field.
