[edit] Comment

I'll try to get to campus next weekend to snap some pics of the stadium and the nearby Pharmed Arena. BD2412 T 22:22, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

If you are taking pictures this weekend you may want to take a picture of the baseball stadium as well. I´ve created a page for it and it needs a picture. Thanks! (Evill72 02:55, 5 January 2006 (UTC))

FIU has a baseball stadium? BD2412 T 04:53, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

Yes, its located on the west end of campus near the football stadium. Its across the street from the Campus Support Complex and right next to the soccer field. If you enter by the 117th Avenue entrance and drive straight through as if you were heading to the football field, you would see it to your left. (Evill72 05:03, 5 January 2006 (UTC))

I'll look for that as well. BD2412 T 05:12, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Stadium on Campus?

When did FIU purchase the stadium property? I know that the property the stadium is on was originally owned by Miami-Dade County Parks and according to the county website, it is still county property. Did the county sell it to FIU? If not, then FIU does not play on campus. Just being close to the stadium doesn't make it on campus. For example, USC plays in the Coliseum at Exposition Park across the street from their campus, but they can't say that they play on campus. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.247.22.199 (talk) 18:59, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

FIU purchased it the same time it purchased the land where the Wertheim Performing Arts Center is, it's FIU property and the FIU Stadium is on campus. In fact, FIU has plans of purchasing the land between the two to build more dorms. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Comayagua99 (talk • contribs) 02:33, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
