Stadium expansion

During the 1999 season, the beginning of the renovation to Commonwealth Stadium began. With very little seating, the stadium was in desperate need of a renovation that would allow more fans into the stadium to watch the Air Raid offense that was largely started by head coach, Hal Mumme. The renovation of the stadium allowed for forty new suites and approximately 68,000 new seats, costing around 24 million dollars. The new stadium expansion allowed the eager University of Kentucky fans to come watch more games. The fan base had just previously broken a record of attendance in the previous season by selling out the Outback Bowl for the first time in Tampa, Florida.[1]
