High school football is a religion across Texas, and the stadiums scattered across the state are the cathedrals. Some have been around for decades, while others are new, state-of-the-art developments. In a push to give their players the best home-field advantage, many school districts have begun multimillion-dollar remodels this offseason. Here's a rundown of all the Texas football stadiums investing millions in renovations.
This offseason, seven filings were submitted to the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR), totaling $67.35 million.
