I disagree – the field is the field, the stadium is the stadium, no? User:TrbleClef 05:36, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC) No, the field and stadium as a whole take on a new name once you name the field. Just like at the Univeristy of Florida's "Ben Hill Griffin Stadium at Florida Field", and Georgia Tech's "Bobby Dodd Stadium at Historic Grant Field". User:AriGold 12:25, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC) :I would still say the field is a distinct entity. It doesn't appear on any signs either, for what that's worth. ::Wrong. I guess you didn't go to the stadium much. There is a giant garnet sign in the stadium, with gold lettering that reads "Bobby Bowden Field at Doak Campbell Stadium". Here's a picture, http://graphics.fansonly.com/photos/schools/fsu/galleries/fsu_pic_121004-122304/dsc_0062-lg.jpg And Here's something else... at FSU's official athletic website, under a list of all university sports facilities, it reads "Bobby Bowden Field at Doak Campbell Stadium". See: http://seminoles.collegesports.com/facilities/fsu-facilities.html Considering the sign IN THE STADIUM and the schools website both now refer to it as "Bobby Bowden Frield...", I think this is pretty clear. User:AriGold 16:29, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC) :Or shouldn't it be called The University Center, The School of Motion Picture, Television and Recording Arts, The University Center Club, Department of Hospitality Administration, College of Social Work, Bobby Bowden Field at Doak Campbell Stadium....? Not to be too unreasonable.
