VENUE INFORMATION for CAMP RANDALL STADIUM
Madison, WI:  Camp Randall Stadium is an outdoor stadium in Madison, Wisconsin. The home of the Wisconsin Badgers football team and the Madison Scouts Drum and Bugle Corps, it is located on the center-southern region of the University of Wisconsin-Madison campus. The stadium seats 80,321. It is the oldest and fourth largest stadium in the Big Ten Conference, and the 42nd largest stadium in the world.

The stadium received its name because it lies on the grounds of Camp Randall, a former Union Army training camp during the American Civil War. The camp was named after Governor Alexander Randall, who was also a United States Postmaster General.

Originally, the stadium consisted of a horseshoe opening to the south, with a running track around the field. The stadium was renovated at various points to raise the size of the horseshoe by nearly doubling the number of rows around the stadium in stages, placing south stands in front of the Wisconsin Field House (built in 1930), the removal of the track and addition of nearly 11,000 seats in 1958, the addition of the upper deck in 1966, and finally the 2005 addition of boxes along the eastern rim of the stadium.

The field was originally natural grass, and was one of the first in the United States to convert to artificial turf, in 1968. A new AstroTurf field was installed in 1990. An artificial grass field, FieldTurf, was installed for the 2003 season.
