A modest field for a team that is known to have had the greatest season of all of college sports, though most do not know about it as it was over 100 years ago. The stadium seats roughly 3,000 attendees. Parking is at the field, though on game day, you might have to park further away.

Wikipedia:
McGee Field/Harris Stadium (officially Benjamin Humphreys McGee Field at Eugene O. Harris Stadium) located in Sewanee, Tennessee is the home of the Sewanee Tigers football and lacrosse teams. It was dedicated as McGee Field at homecoming on October 22, 1977. Before then the stadium was known as Hardee Field, named for Lt. General William J. Hardee of the Confederate States of America. Thus sometimes the field is also called Hardee-McGee Field. McGee Field is the oldest stadium in the South still in use.
