General Charles C. Krulak Stadium is located in Birmingham, Alabama, and serves 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.[2] The 49-0 Panthers victory saw an overflow crowd of 3,575 in attendance.[2]

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.[3]

Panther Stadium will be the site for fistball during the 2021 World Games when they are held in Birmingham.
