Yulman Stadium

Is this where the Green Wave roars? You’re standing right before Yulman Stadium, the heart of Tulane University football. For almost four decades, the Green Wave played their games off-campus at the Superdome. It was a grand venue, sure, but it lacked the electrifying energy of a true college football experience, a place where fans could truly feel at home. So, in 2014, Yulman Stadium was born, rising proudly from the same ground that once hosted the legendary Tulane Stadium. Yulman Stadium is a love letter to Tulane’s rich football history. This 30,000-seat marvel, our Yulman Stadium, is more than just steel and turf. It’s a symbol of Tulane’s enduring spirit, made possible by the generosity of people like Richard Yulman, a Tulane man through and through. His 15 million dollar donation not only gave the stadium its name but also sparked a wave of generosity from other donors. And look down, feel the turf beneath your feet, this is Benson Field, named for New Orleans Saints owner Tom Benson, another crucial figure in Yulman Stadium’s story. But the real magic unfolds on game days. Picture this: the roar of 30,000 fans shaking the stadium to its core, the band belting out the fight song, and the Green Wave players leaving it all on the field. You can practically feel the energy, right? Yulman Stadium embodies the resilience of Tulane University. It’s a testament to the power of community, a place where students, alumni, and fans come together to create memories that will last a lifetime. So, the next time you hear the roar of the Green Wave, think of Yulman Stadium, a place where the spirit of Tulane football roars to life.
