Summary

[edit]
Description

Williams-Brice Stadium is the home football stadium for the South Carolina Gamecocks, the college football team representing the University of South Carolina in Columbia, South Carolina. It is currently the 20th largest college football stadium in the NCAA and is located on the corner of George Rogers Boulevard and Bluff Road adjacent to the South Carolina State Fairgrounds.

Carolina football teams consistently attract standing-room-only crowds to Williams-Brice Stadium. In addition to serving as the home of the Gamecocks, the stadium has been the site of many concerts, state high school football championships, and various other events.
