Sam Boyd Stadium
Sam Boyd Stadium, also known by its former name, the Silver Bowl, is a football stadium located in Whitney, Nevada, an unincorporated community in the Las Vegas Valley. The stadium is named after Sam Boyd, a major figure in the hotel/casino industry in Las Vegas. The stadium consists of an uncovered horseshoe-shaped single-decked bowl. Temporary seating is occasionally erected in the open north end zone as needed.
The stadium is the home of the UNLV football team and the annual Las Vegas Bowl each December. The stadium is also used for high school football championship games, and at times regular-season high school games for Bishop Gorman High School. The final race of the Monster Energy Supercross series is located here every year. Since 2010, it has hosted the USA Sevens leg of the annual World Rugby Sevens Series in the sevens version of rugby union.
The stadium is the former home of the NASL's Las Vegas Quicksilvers, the CFL's Las Vegas Posse, the XFL's Las Vegas Outlaws, and the UFL's Las Vegas Locomotives.
==History==
The stadium was completed in 1971 at a cost of $3.5 million. It was originally known as Las Vegas Stadium. The name was changed to the Las Vegas Silver Bowl in 1978 and then Sam Boyd Silver Bowl in 1984 and finally in April 1994 to Sam Boyd Stadium. The seating capacity was 15,000 from 1971 until 1977. The capacity was raised to 32,000 in 1978, and then to 36,800 in 1999.〔()〕 Except from 1999 to 2002, the stadium has had an artificial turf surface.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=UAC Las Vegas construction project )〕 A $1.2 million renovation during the summer of 2015 replaced field turf that hadn’t been changed out in more than a decade and was severely worn from usage. Additionally, two rows totaling 860 seats were removed from the east and west sidelines to widen the field and drop Sam Boyd’s capacity to 35,500.〔
