EAST LANSING, Mich. – Michigan State Athletics will celebrate the 100th anniversary of Spartan Stadium leading up to kickoff and throughout the 2023 season this fall.
With 100 days remaining to the 2023 season opener vs. Central Michigan on Friday, Sept. 1, MSU Athletics has launched a website, msuspartans.com/SpartanStadium100, to commemorate the home of Michigan State football. The website features historical photos, a listing of top games, and video highlights from some of the top moments in Spartan Stadium history.
A special logo was created for the 100-year anniversary and fans can purchase "Spartan Stadium 100" merchandise through Fanatics, Michigan State's official online store, at shopmsuspartans.com. The logo incorporates elements from the structure of Spartan Stadium and also pays homage to MSU's six national championships in football.
The Spartan Fund has opened the Spartan Stadium 100th Anniversary Fund where donors, alumni and fans can join MSU Athletics in the effort to preserve the history and enhance the future of Spartan Stadium by making a gift in celebration of the 100th anniversary. To make a gift, please click here.
In addition, the social media accounts for Michigan State Athletics and Spartan football will be posting content through the leadup to the 2023 football season and during the fall highlighting Spartan Stadium. Spartan fans will also have a chance to vote for their all-time favorite games at Spartan Stadium on social media polls during the summer.
Additional components for the 100th anniversary of Spartan Stadium will be unveiled throughout the year.
Michigan State began playing at the present site of Spartan Stadium with four home games in 1923. A series of projects paralleling the Spartans' rise to national football prominence enlarged the steel-and-concrete facility from its original 13,064 seats in 1923 to its present size of nearly 75,000.
