Powers Field at Princeton Stadium is a stadium in Princeton, New Jersey, United States. It is primarily used for American football, and has been the home field of the Princeton Tigers since 1998. The stadium seats 27,773. Since 2007, the playing surface has been known as Powers Field at Princeton Stadium.
Princeton Stadium was viewed as a long-overdue replacement for Palmer Stadium, the Tigers' former home, an 83-year-old "dinosaur".[4] It sits on the same site as its predecessor; because of the demolition and construction work, the Tigers played all of their 1997 games on the road.
The stadium opened September 19, 1998, as a capacity crowd of 27,800 witnessed the Tigers defeat Cornell, 6-0.[5]
