Kyle Field Seating chart

Kyle Field is currently the biggest football venue in the State of Texas. However , the renovation of the north end of Darrell K. Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium in Austin will supplant it upon its completion in 2008. In the fall of 1904, Edwin Jackson Kyle, an 1899 graduate of Texas A&M and professor of horticulture, was named president of the General Athletics Association.

Kyle wanted to secure and develop an athletic field to promote the school's athletics. Texas A&M was unwilling to provide funds, so Kyle fenced off a section of the southeast corner of campus that had been assigned to him for agricultural use. Using $650 of his own money, he purchased a covered grandstand from the Bryan fairgrounds and built wooden bleachers to raise the seating capacity to 500 people.The Texas A&M Board of Directors set this area as a permanent athletic field, which served as the home for the football and baseball teams.
