Nippert Stadium

James Gamble Nippert Memorial Stadium, commonly known as Nippert Stadium, is an outdoor sports stadium located in Cincinnati, Ohio, on the campus of the University of Cincinnati. The venue is the home ground of the Cincinnati Bearcats college football team.

📜 History

The original structure of the venue developed gradually, beginning in 1901 with wooden bleachers on a field. In 1915, some sections were replaced with stands made from brick and concrete, and this process continued over several seasons. The stadium was officially dedicated as James Gamble Nippert Memorial Stadium in 1924.

The venue is named after James Gamble Nippert, a Cincinnati football player who died of blood poisoning in 1923 after receiving an injury during a game against Miami. After his death, Nippert's grandfather donated the funds for the stadium construction to be completed.

As well as hosting all Cincinnati Bearcats home football games, Nippert Stadium has been used for soccer, serving as the home ground for MLS team FC Cincinnati from 2016 until 2020.
