The Bobcat Stadium will be expanded with 13,500 additional seats for upper and lower levels. This will connect the existing east and west grandstands. These additional seats will increase the capacity for Bobcat Stadium to between 28,000 and 30,000.
New concession stands and rest rooms will be featured and a first aid room will be built on the concourse of the new complex. Two elevators, one service elevator that will accommodate the Fields West Side Complex and a second passenger elevator for fans, are some other additions as part of the expansion scheme. A large plaza designed to serve as a space for public gatherings and special events will also be featured.
The estimated cost for the project is $32 million with construction set to begin following Texas State’s 2011 football season.
