I think if you feed "Buck Rogers football stadium" into an image AI, you might get this:

Looks kind of similar to Youngstown State’s.

When it was first built, it was made up of one 17,000 seat bleacher on one side of the field.

It was expanded 25+ years ago by 3,000 by putting up that smaller bleacher on the opposite of the original.

It looks like one of those things you use to "chock" a trailer tire in your driveway to keep it from rolling down the hill. My dad always called it chock, is that the word?

Central Arkansas has a similar setup, but I struggled to find a picture that really did it justice. Only 10,000 seats, but they have that sweet peanut butter and jelly field stiping:

Yeah, seems like a lot of the 1-AA schools back in the day had the bigger beautiful home side (not say EKU is beautiful) and then the visitors side about like a high school stadium. I remember Northeast Louisiana, now ULM had the same thing. I'm sure with these present-day high construction cost, a rebuild has been nonexistent to impossible for those smaller schools.

Not a bad looking stadium for a school their size. At least they likely stay in their lane regarding stadium needs. Their level of football is about equivalent to Mississippi JUCO teams. Toledo appears to be several notches better. Of course, Toledo is a pretty big city..........

Reminds me of when the kids stole our sex pillows and took em to their room and they ended up on top of a football field designed throw blanket.**

If the Liberator ™ were a D2 college football stadium, that would be it.
