The university's website claims that the stadium was the "first of its kind to be built at any Black school in the south", but I cannot independently confirm that. If true, that would likely meet the notability requirement. Also note that the Tuskegee University campus, on which I assume the stadium sits, has been declared both a National Historic Site and National Historic Landmark. I'll do a bit more searching for references, but I'm coming up empty so far. --auburnpilot talk 17:25, 23 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Appears to be notable, per Aubuurn Pilot. At the very least, merge it with the Tuskegee University article. Mrs. Wolpoff (talk) 12:45, 24 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
