General Charles C. Krulak Stadium is located in Birmingham, Alabama, and served as the home stadium for the Birmingham–Southern Panthers football, lacrosse, cross country, and track and field teams.[1] The stadium has a maximum seating capacity of 1,600, and opened for the homecoming football game against Sewanee on November 8, 2008 as Panther Stadium.[2] The 49–0 Panthers victory saw an overflow crowd of 3,575 in attendance.[2] In 2015, the stadium was renamed to its current name after General Charles C. Krulak.[3]

Panther Stadium serves as a replacement for the Munger Bowl, which was located on-campus and subsequently demolished in the 1960s to make way for campus expansion.[4]
