21 Historic College Stadiums Perfect for a Nostalgia-Fueled Road Trip

17. Bobby Dodd Stadium at Historic Grant Field: Atlanta's Enduring Gridiron

Atlanta, Georgia, hosts Bobby Dodd Stadium, the oldest on-campus stadium in NCAA Division I FBS football, with Georgia Tech playing there since 1913 (the current structure dates from then, though the field was used earlier). Nestled amidst the city skyline, it offers a unique urban backdrop. Named for legendary coach Bobby Dodd, its intimate setting and rich history, including national championships and hosting events during the 1996 Olympics, make it a cherished landmark. It’s a rare gem where big-city progress meets deep-rooted collegiate tradition.
