Goodman Stadium
Goodman Stadium is Lehigh University's 16,000-seat stadium located on its Goodman Campus in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, in the Lehigh Valley region of the state. It opened in 1988, replacing Taylor Stadium which stood in the main academic campus from 1914 until 1987. The former Taylor Stadium site now holds the Rauch Business Center, the Zoelner Arts Center and a parking garage.
The stadium is home to the Lehigh University Mountain Hawks football team and has been voted the best place to watch a Patriot League football game for the past six years.[1] Located in a rural valley surrounded by wooded hills, it has lots of near-by parking making tailgate parties before games very popular. Concession stands protected from the weather and large indoor restrooms are provided on both sides of the stadium.
Lehigh University has had winning football teams for the past nine seasons and coupled with the stadium capacity and amenities, normally leads the Patriot League in football attendance figures each year.
The stadium has also been the pre-season training camp location for the NFL's Philadelphia Eagles for the past decade. Eagles' training camps often draw as many as 10,000 fans, ranking at the top of NFL training camp attendance. The Eagles' twice-daily practices are held from mid-July to mid-August.
