Everything is Bigger in Texas Including HS Football Stadiums

It's almost that time of year again. Friday Night Lights! In the Crossroads and much of Texas, High School Football opening night is Friday, August 25th. With that being said, I thought it would be a great time to take a look at some massive Texas High School Stadiums by capacity and dollar amount. The first list is the biggest by capacity and below are the two most expensive High School Stadiums in the State of Texas.

THE LARGEST STADIUM BY CAPACITY:

While this one is not a looker, this one has the biggest capacity for a High School Stadium in Texas. Memorial Stadium in Mesquite plays host to five school districts in the Mesquite school district. The estimated capacity:19:400.

The most expensive high school football stadium in Texas can be found right up the road in KATY, Texas. In 2018, Legacy Stadium opened with a price tag of $72 million dollars. The capacity is 12,000 and while there are bigger stadiums, capacity-wise, and bigger overall stadiums. The amenities are what set this stadium apart.

Just check out that press box and VIP area up top. These are most of the schools that utilize this stadium. Cinco Ranch High School, Jordan High School, Katy High School, Mayde Creek High School, Morton Ranch High School, Paetow High School, Seven Lakes High School, and Taylor High School.
