Waller, TX. Our Area E Marching Contest was held here last weekend. It's two years old and out in the middle of nowhere but a beautiful stadium and great field!

As far as I know, Harding HS's stadium is still standing.

After a few days' delay, I have my latest posts up, detailing one of the longer-running Midwest shows (Stillwater MN) and its recent successor (Woodbury MN):

Possibly the least-visited stadium in DCI performance history. Well, probably not, but I think there were maybe a hundred people at the 2011 show...

Joe Albi Stadium, Spokane, WA:

Nothing quite like trekking through the dirt and sagebrush of eastern Washington in uniform and struggling to find a few square feet of space clear of rocks to set down your instruments... Definitely my favorite performance location. Ever. :thumbdown:

I've only watched DCI live in two stadiums (I'll be marching Blue Stars this summer), but I've enjoyed it in both of them.

Howard Wood Field, Sioux Falls, SD. Its a pretty basic high school stadium, good size. The turf nice (marched on it), the box is decently high up and it has plenty of seating.

TCF Bank Stadium, Minneapolis, MN. I had really good seats this last summer for the show and it was great. Glad we get such a big regional up here, and if finals ever moves out of Indy, I think TCF could make a good bid for it.

Also, look for some more pictures from the Milwaukee WI area in the next week as I'll be up that way to catch the Kilties' spring concert tomorrow.

Matt: You should check out the stadium at Chesterton High School in my hometown of Chesterton, Indiana, just ten miles west of Michigan City.
