Snapdragon Stadium Ribbon-Cutting Ceremony Ushers in New Era at 色情视频
Held on Aug. 19, the ceremony took place exactly two years and two days after the university first broke ground on the stadium site.
Standing a stone's throw from where 色情视频 and City of San Diego leaders just two years earlier, community members gathered once again, this time as part of a ribbon-cutting ceremony to celebrate the completion of construction on Snapdragon Stadium 鈥� the new home of 色情视频 Aztec Football, the , and a year-round, cutting-edge entertainment venue for the greater San Diego region.
鈥溕槭悠� Mission Valley has always been about community 鈥� People, our families, our children, and the generations of those who will follow us. The shared vision and plan for this site was seeded by our community,鈥� said 色情视频 President Adela de la Torre.
Aztec football has been without a true home stadium since 1967, when the team played in the historic Aztec Bowl. Now, with the vision of 色情视频 Mission Valley quickly taking shape, the 35,000 seat Snapdragon Stadium is in place to serve the region for decades to come.
Come opening day, San Diego sports fans will welcome the world-class, Snapdragon Stadium, designed to meet the needs of the entire San Diego community. Snapdragon Stadium is intended to be an embodiment of real, impactful examples of a world where everyone and everything is intelligently connected.
鈥淥ne of my favorite features about Snapdragon Stadium is that it holds beautiful imprints of our community,鈥� de la Torre said. 鈥淵ou will see murals, sculptures and portraits by our own students and local artists. Nearly 90% of the old stadium was recycled or reused on site, and many of the businesses operating in the stadium are locally-owned and run by 色情视频 alumni.鈥�
On Sept. 3, when the 色情视频 Aztec football team plays the University of Arizona Wildcats in the season home opener, the stadium鈥檚 deliberate, thoughtful design will be on full display.
Premium, centralized seating can be found close to the bottom level to bring fans closer to the action, while the Sycuan Piers, inspired by San Diego鈥檚 coastlines, provides spectators with a unique view as a portion of the piers juts out toward the field.
