Allen stadium is very professional. It was built only a few years ago at a cost of over $60 million. I LOVE it that EP High stadium is -- for now -- winning the vote.
Yeah, they might actually sell that one out.
They have LED lighting at RR Jones Stadium.
On February 27, 2014 the stadium was closed due to cracking in concrete to ensure the safety of visitors. All future events were canceled until further notice.[3] In a letter to the design and construction companies for the stadium, lawyers for the school district cited “construction failures” that exacerbated “already deficient design.”[4]
Repairs costing more than $10 million were made at the expense of the builder and architect,[5] and the stadium was officially reopened on June 5, 2015 for graduation.[6]

They also moved the Texas vs. The Nation game there.after its one year at the Alamodome.
Oh, I'm very familiar with the issues they had. I live in the area and the cracking was all over the news. I was only pointing out that it is a new, state of the art facility whereas Jones stadium is not.
Officials estimate that if this same package was put together today, it would cost more than 10 times its original price. El Paso High, which has beautiful marble floors, was named a historic landmark in 1980 by The National Register of Historic Places.

Hawaii is catching up while we are sleeping. They are voting like 60 to 10. Vote a many times as you can. There is 4 hour difference.
El Paso stadium is in the final. We have a lot of ground to make up so get to voting!

I’ve never understood this line of thinking. What’s the point? If people vote 100 times, or 10 for that matter, that just means one school has more people willing to go vote over and over. It has absolutely nothing to do with one particular stadium being cooler (nicer) than the other. Nothing at all. It’s an empty accolade. If people could only vote once, there might be some merit to the distinguishment.
i think these are better pictures for both schools.
The west Virginia stadium is nice. But i think its the landscape that
is nice but stadium isnt all that great.
USA Today used the wrong picture for El Paso High.
i think Austin High school alums voted against El Paso high and maybe NMSU fans. El Paso has a lot of haters.
