Where is the Florida Field?

We Answered:

Ben Hill Griffin Stadium at Florida Field is the American football stadium for the University of Florida college team, and is located in Gainesville, Florida. The stadium was built in 1930 as Florida Field. In 1934, the stadium was dedicated to the memory of servicemen who died in the first World War. The stadium was renamed in 1989 in honor of legendary citrus grower and University of Florida benefactor Ben Hill Griffin, Jr. The name of the playing surface remains Florida Field.

The stadium has expanded over the years from a seating of 21,769 to its current seating capacity of more than 90,000, making it the largest stadium in the state of Florida. The playing surface was artificial turf from 1971 through the 1989. The artificial turf was removed and natural grass was restored for the 1990 season.

The Florida Gators football team, a member of the Southeastern Conference, plays all its home games at the stadium. Games played against the University of Georgia Bulldogs are played in Jacksonville, Florida at what is informally known as The World's Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party, except for 1994 and 1995 when the Gator Bowl was upgraded to NFL standards as the home of the Jacksonville Jaguars. Ben Hill Griffin also hosted the 1994 Gator Bowl between Virginia Tech and Tennessee as well as the 1973 Tangerine Bowl.

The stadium is best known as The Swamp, a nickname given to it by legendary former head coach Steve Spurrier in the early 1990s. He noted that a "...swamp is where Gators live. We feel comfortable there, but we hope our opponents feel tentative. A swamp is hot and sticky and can be dangerous." Befitting the nickname, the original stadium, which consists of the lower half of the current stadium, was built in a ravine placing the stands and playing surface entirely below ground level. Subsequent additions over the years have enclosed the playing area on all sides by high-angled stands that create a closed-in, claustrophobic feel on the field. Game-day temperatures at field level have been known to exceed 100 degrees Fahrenheit (37 degrees Celsius). Every home game has been sold out since 1979, and there is a large and loud student section along the east side of the stadium. The student section is known as the "Swamp Things" after current head coach Urban Meyer held a contest to name the section. These factors create an intimidating environment that can hinder an opposing team's ability to hear playcalls and rattles nerves. The theme is completed by the pre-game video played shortly before the players run out on to the field that shows clips of alligators while playing the theme from Jaws and closes with the quote, "The Swamp...Only Gators get out alive!"

does the university of florida mail information to interested freshmen?

We Answered:

They will send stuff out of state if you're interested in going to their school. There should at least be a link to find out who your admission counselor is (they're based on your location). E-mail your admission counselor and tell them you're name, address and that you'd like to be on their mailing.
