Historic Broken Bow Memorial Stadium has served as the home of the Broken Bow Savages, since it was constructed in 1936 by the National Youth Administration, a part of the Works Progress Administration. Memorial Stadium is also home to other events, such as local little league and middle school football contests and, beginning with the class of 2004, once again home to Broken Bow High School's commencement ceremony. ==Overview== Originally a wooden stadium with a capacity of 2,500, the modern Memorial Stadium is constructed primarily of concrete and native rock and stands as one of the oldest and largest high school football stadiums in the state of Oklahoma. The stadium's nickname, "Over the Mountain," is a term attributed to the long roadtrip through the Ouachita Mountains that many teams face when having to travel to Broken Bow to play the Savages. Thanks to the contributions of the community, much of the stadium has been renovated, including the home-side press box and the new scoreboard (updated in 2003). The classic "Home of the Savages" banner that crowned the old scoreboard has now been re-painted and added to the home-side press box. Memorial Stadium has a grass playing surface, featuring the classic Broken Bow arrowhead logo at midfield. The main pressbox is located on top of the south stands on the home side at Memorial Stadium. An additional pressbox is located on top of the north stands, which serves the coaches and media for visiting teams. Due to the large support of the community for the football team, roughly half of the north stands is used for additional seating for Broken Bow fans. Metal bleachers constructed in the southwest and southeast corners of the stadium during the 2005 renovation allow for even more seating for Savage fans. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Broken Bow Memorial Stadium」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
