This is the third installment of a three-part series, written by CU student David Collins, on the history of football stadiums on the CU campus, from Gamble Field to the current version of Folsom Field. Part I and Part II ran earlier this year.
BOULDER – Folsom Field has been growing since it opened in 1924. Starting with just a humble bowl at the foot of the Rockies, Folsom began expanding in 1956 with the addition of the second deck of seating across the western and southern parts of the bowl.
