Happy 500th, Folsom Field: A look back at the history of a great venue

The Colorado Buffaloes’ final home game of the 2018 season on Saturday will mark a pretty big milestone at Boulder’s scenic stadium.

Folsom Field has stood majestically at the foot of the Flatirons and at the center of CU’s campus for 94 years now. On Saturday, the field will host its 500th football game.

Many consider the stadium to be among the best in college football, and the Buffaloes that have played there have enjoyed a pretty successful home-field advantage. Entering game No. 500, the Buffs hold a 315-174-10 (.631) all-time record in Folsom’s friendly confines.
