John Gupton Stadium — Attraction in Cedar Park

One of the best venues in Austin's metro area. It's split seating is a drawback as I always favor places where fans of either team can mix. I often want to be in the "home" side just for the bands and would prefer to be able to move to and from either side of the field to enjoy the game.

The only drawback for me that Kelly Reeves Stadium can also be hosting a separate football game and I hit the traffic leaving Gupton and also hit the backed up traffic due Kelly Revees football game. This happens when I am on my way back down Palmer towards 620 and both stadiums have unfortunately timed exiting traffic. So check Google maps if you are leaving and taking Palmer towards 620.

The elevated field sometimes makes the stadium seating feel further from the action than other older stadiums. But overall it's a class experience.

Parking is always better if your on the Visitors side when leaving than the home side. I often Park on the visitors side because it's easier for me to drive in and out of the Stadium... I don't mind walking a little extra for the ease of leaving the stadium compared to the home side parking.

The scoreboard is very nice. Not on a level with Westlake, but a notch and a half below that...

Look, I get that not all HS stadiums can be amazing, but this place felt extremely spartan. The North-South facing nature ensures the visitor's side get absolutely WRECKED by the sun during the worst parts of the day. The concession stands are adequate, but the bathrooms (on the visitor's side) atrocious. It's possible it was just nasty because it was a marching band competition when I was there, but yikes. No A/C and...let's call it "lackluster" cleanliness and "interesting" odors. (Even for a public bathroom). The PA system is decent and easy to hear, and the lack of a field track probably makes football games a (relatively) intimate affair for those in the lower seats. There is ample parking, too, so that's nice. Overall, although the stadium feels dated and spartan (I like that word) it...

Great stadium for school events, lots of parking with enough entry/ exit points makes it easy for audience. The sound system could be better, IMO but I've been to just one event (Festival of Bands -LISD) and would like to see how the entertainment systems perform on a game day. Although this was our 1st, we're certain this won't be our last, looking forward to the...
