From the outside, you might think that Donald W. Reynolds Stadium is the home to a professional team from the NFL or perhaps a pro baseball team, but you would be wrong. On any given Saturday during the Fall, the loud roars that billow from this stadium belong to the thousands of fans that pack Razorback Stadium to watch the University of Arkansas football team.


Razorback Stadium is encased in brick and glass that gives it a very modern look often associated with the newest stadiums of the NFL and MLB. These improvements, along with others, were thanks to a $110 million renovation project that was completed prior to the 2001 season. In 2018 a $160 million re-construction project was completed at Razorback Stadium. The Broyles Athletic Center was demolished and the seating capacity of the stadium was expanded as 4,800 seats and new luxury seating was added in the north end zone.


The eastern concourse of the stadium includes a section that displays every conference championship banner as well featuring a tribute to the university’s national championship in 1964, the western concourse features a tribute to every bowl game Arkansas has participated in and the south concourse features every Razorback All-American. Included in the renovation project were the addition of luxury suites, an expanded press box and perhaps the most impressive addition was the video screen above the north end zone, that today measures 38 feet high by 167 feet wide. Originally built in the 1930s, the stadium’s original capacity was a mere 13,500, almost one-fifth its current size when the Razorbacks played their first game on September 24, 1938 against Oklahoma A&M. It was known as University Stadium, then Bailey Stadium after Arkansas Governor Carl Bailey before being renamed Razorback Stadium in 1941.
