Texas High School built a 35 million dollar football stadium, Including a Field House
We have all heard the quote everything is bigger in Texas, and dammit they are living up to their saying.
Melissa High School located about 40 miles from Dallas built a brand new football stadium that will hold 10,000 fans. That is a monster stadium considering they only have 1300 students in their high school.
Get this the entire town’s population is just 19,357 according to the US Census in 2022.
Because the school continues to grow they are going to build a stadium better than most college stadiums, and it will cost 35 million dollars in total.
Construction finished on the stadium and its facilities earlier this summer ahead of the team’s preseason workouts and first game on Sept. 1. It is amazing! I mean they have a field house as well, a state of the art indoor practice facility if it gets too hot or rains.
Here is another photo of the indoor facility.
I cannot wait to see this place, this is what high school football should be like!
