About Ben Hill Griffin Stadium
Known popularly as "The Swamp", Ben Hill Griffin Stadium is the University of Florida's football stadium, in Gainesville, Florida. The Florida Gators football team plays its home games on the field. The stadium occupies the northern edge of the campus, with West University Avenue to its north, Stadium Road to its south and Gale Lemerand Drive to its west. An official capacity of 88,548 seats makes it the largest stadium in Florida, and attendance has often passed 90,000 for home games.
Florida Field, as it was first called, opened with 22,000 seats in time for the homecoming game against Alabama on November 8, 1930. Its site was a shallow ravine, and an underground stream nobody knew about began pouring water into the excavation until culverts diverted it. In 1934 the field was dedicated to Florida's servicemen who lost their lives in World War I. The university renamed the stadium in 1989 in honor of citrus magnate and alumnus Ben Hill Griffin, Jr., although the playing surface kept the name Florida Field.
The playing surface took Steve Spurrier's name on September 3, 2016; he had been a Florida quarterback and later its head coach. Spurrier is also the person who coined the nickname "The Swamp", in 1992. Numerous expansions and renovations followed the opening: capacity almost doubled to about 40,000 in 1949–1950, and a double-decked grandstand enclosed the south end zone in 1982. Since the 1960s, most of the university's athletic administrators have had offices under the west stands.
