84Cavalier 10 Report Share Posted September 25, 2009 Marion St. Paul, hands down. On the visitor side, not that there is much of one, you can't see anything. If you are trying to sit on one of the three rows of bleachers, you have to look through the chain link fence. It is horrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwave0333 69 Report Share Posted September 25, 2009 The worst used to be hurley, the endzone in the corner of the "cliff" was a swamp and had an odd orange tint to it. Heard they redid the whole field though, they say it looks alot better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be a seating issue. I think it was Appys field at one time was full of rocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#1BLUESFAN 169 Report Share Posted September 25, 2009 pounds was pretty bad back in the day they had that indoor/outdoor carpet next to the sideline on one side of the field..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lance 228 Report Share Posted September 25, 2009 Grundy's is bad late in the year if there is a lot of rain...much improved over the pile of rock it once was though...they have done a good job over the years fixing it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
losheyhombres 11 Report Share Posted September 25, 2009 Has anyone been to Rural Retreat's excuse for a stadium? It's about 1 mile from my house and I refuse to go!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_general 13 Report Share Posted September 25, 2009 As far as the playing surface in the SWD, back in the day, it would have been Grundy and/or Marion. Marion still appears to be the same. Grundy has at least picked a few rocks up. From the stand point of watching a game......well where do I start. Grundy, Marion, Gate City, Honaker, Lebanon....... In the 80's, Virginia High had the best field by far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the_general 13 Report Share Posted September 25, 2009 CC's field sucks gonads. Never played on it, so I'll take your word on it. I do know it sucks to watch a game there. Terrible lighting, horrible stands......and it seems to always rain when Richlands plays there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unchained 587 Report Share Posted September 25, 2009 Wise rolled in crunch bunch and Division 1. St.Paul got D-2. The Deacons have a solid group of 7th-graders. They remind me a little bit of my son's 8th-grade bunch (which is still rolling along after dumping PV 22-13 last night) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest zeus71 Report Share Posted September 25, 2009 Back when UVA wise shared carol dale stadium with JJ kelly the field was awful. We played there one friday night after a Thursday night CVC game that was played in the wet weather. There was no field the mud was ankle deep. It was kind of fun to play in but as far as any execution there was not much of it. It was truly 3 yards and no cloud of dust but a mud puddle.

In the 80's, Virginia High had the best field by far. Va Highs field is pretty nice... I hate the sound system at Grundy...it's distracting, overly loud, and annoying...if I ever win the lotto, I am going to write them a check for a new one...lol...what they have now looks like the bull horns from a MASH episode stuck up on poles that block your view of the field.

Gunz9 71 Report Share Posted September 25, 2009 Use to be Richlands. Seemed like when we would play them the grass hadn't been mowed in about 2 weeks it looked like and when you stood on one sideline you couldn't see the other teams feet on their sideline because the massive hump in the middle of the field.

falconfansrock 11 Report Share Posted September 25, 2009 When I played, it was always rumored that Gate City would water down the field all day long to make it more difficult for us to run the ball... I don't know if this is true or not? Made for a good rumor anyway. That is when the really tall QB played for them, Andy Smith, and a few others I can't remember. 1996, 1997 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
