Located on a hillside above the city of Ogden, and with the waters of the Great Salt Lake shimmering in the distance, there are few stadiums anywhere which can match the natural surroundings as well as Weber State’s Stewart Stadium.

The area itself has been used for games, long before the present school site was even in existence. During the mid 1950’s, while the majority of campus of what was then Weber Junior College, was located downtown, the foothills section which today is the site of the university, was purchased with an eye to the eventual move. The football stadium was one of the first structures built. The earliest games played there had minimal seating, located on the nature hillside on the east side of the field. This was later made into permanent concrete bleachers and went through three subsequent expansions.
