The oldest-stadiums page should rank venues by original opening year while clearly separating original construction from major renovations, rebuilds, and current capacity.

How to define oldest stadium

The page should use original opening year as the primary ranking, then add renovation and expansion notes so a rebuilt venue is not confused with an unchanged original structure.

  • Sort by opening year ascending.
  • Show current team and listed capacity.
  • Flag major rebuilds, relocations, and renamed venues.

Why this helps stadium discovery

Age-based searches are different from capacity searches. This page gives historic venues a direct discovery path and links readers into CFBTrack's venue detail pages.

External sources are used to identify search demand and framing. CFBTrack pages should still rely on local data, route caveats, and source-status notes before publishing exact ranked tables.
