Jack Trice Stadium is a stadium in Ames, Iowa. It is primarily used for American football, and is the home field of the Iowa State University Cyclones. It opened in 1975 and holds 50,935 people. The original name was Cyclone Stadium, a name that was held until 2000 when it was renamed in honor of Jack Trice, ISU's first African-American athlete and first athletic related fatality. In 1995, the field was named in honor of Trice. Many other events have taken place there, most notably a Paul McCartney concert in 1990 which set, and currently holds, the attendance record for the stadium.
