Pikeville High School and Pike Central High stadiums are less than 4 miles from each other, but they haven't become natural rivals. Pike Central opened in the fall of 1993 with the consolidation of Johns Creek & Mullins. I am unsure if Pikeville played Pike Central in the years 93-97, but this years game is only the 2nd head to head contest since 1998 from available KHSAA stats. Last year Pikeville beat Pike Central 53-0 in the last game of the regular season.

If I'm not mistaken, Fort Campbell and Monroe County played a playoff game at Austin Peay State University in Clarksville, Tennessee a few years ago!

HAHA that is fantastic

 

A neutral field game between two Kentucky teams in Tennessee

Manual Stadium is reputed to be the oldest (1924) high school stadium in the state. Also, I believe UK played a game or games there.

Very well could have. Since it's coming from you; I don't doubt that one bit! :lol2::thumb:

To my knowledge, Stadium of Champions in Hopkinsville is the only stadium shared in the state b/t two schools (in the same district and/or otherwise). Hoptown & Christian County. (**Pretty common practice in Texas. Which is why you see these monstrous places. Imagine if the money in Warren County Schools was combined for Greenwood, South Warren, Warren East & Warren Central...or Central Hardin, North Hardin and John Hardin. We'd have some in our state that looked Lone Star'ish, too**)

 

I know of private schools/public schools (ie: Newport & NewCath) that still do.

Dayton high school has the most northern football field in the state and probably some of the steepest stands.

An errant pass at Conner could end up on runway 18R at Cincinnati International Airport. Ok, maybe not that close, but they are right next to one another.

DeSales is the only school in the state, that has never lost a game on their home field.

We are 1-0! :dancingpa

I have a soft spot for stadiums that do not use standard issue aluminum bleachers

 

It's a dying breed

 

Russellville is probably one of my favorite venues to learn about. Not only is the Stadium old school and cool, but they have the end zone with the raised surface in one corner if I recall

Man, taking a close-up look at that field makes you wish they could get turf. Looks like the sprinkler system misses spots.
