  • Bobby Dodd Stadium at Historic Grant Field is the football stadium located at the corner of North Avenue NW at Techwood Drive NW on the campus of Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta, Georgia. It has been home to the Yellow Jackets football team, often referred to as the "Ramblin' Wreck," in rudimentary form since 1905 and as a complete stadium since 1913. The team participates in the Division I Football Bowl Subdivision as a member of the Atlantic Coast Conference. It is also the oldest and winningest stadium in Division I Football Bowl Subdivision. Bobby Dodd Stadium is named in honor of Robert Lee "Bobby" Dodd, longtime football coach and athletic director at Georgia Tech. The field is named for Hugh Inman Grant, son of John W. Grant, a well-known Atlanta merchant and original benefactor of the stadium.
  • Le Bobby Dodd Stadium est un stade de football américain de 55 000 places situé sur le campus de la Georgia Institute of Technology à Atlanta. L'équipe de football américain universitaire de Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets évolue dans cette enceinte inaugurée en 1913 sous le nom de Grant Field. Ce stade est la propriété de la Georgia Institute of Technology. Le stade porte le nom de Grant Field jusqu'en 1988. Il est rebaptisé Bobby Dodd Stadium en mémoire de Bobby Dodd, entraîneur adjoint à Georgia Tech de 1931 à 1946, entraîneur en chef de 1946 à 1967 puis directeur du programme sportif jusqu'en 1976. Disposant de 5600 places à son inauguration en 1913, le stade connaît des vagues de travaux portant la capacité à 40 000 places en 1947 puis 55 000 en 2003. Ce stade fut occasionnellement utilisé par les Atlanta Falcons lors de leurs premières saisons. Les Falcons partageaient alors l'Atlanta-Fulton County Stadium avec les Atlanta Braves, et calendrier oblige, certaines parties des Falcons durent être délocalisées au Grant Field.
