Tiger Stadium, also known as “Death Valley”, is located on the Louisiana State University campus in Baton Rouge and was built in 1924. The stadium can hold 91,027 people and uses a natural grass playing surface. The capacity of the stadium in 1926 was around 12,000 and the stadium has gone through a series of renovations in recent years. Tiger Stadium has often been named the toughest stadium to play in for visiting teams and coaches and on the night of October 8, 1988, LSU beat SEC-rival Auburn on a last second play and the crowd was so loud that the ovation actually cause an earth tremor that registered on a seismograph meter in LSU's Geology Department on the other side of the campus. Tiger Stadium once served as a dormitory for almost 1,500 students of the university, and while LSU's athletic dormitory was being renovated during the fall of 1986, the LSU football players actually lived in Tiger Stadium.
