Everyone connected with the opening of Kornblau Field at S.B. Ballard Stadium, from Old Dominion University to S.B. Ballard Construction, Aramark and Spectra, intended to make the first game at the new football stadium a pleasurable experience for everyone.
Most fans appeared to enjoy the venue’s much improved amenities, including roomier seating, better sight lines and a new video board, when the Monarchs opened against Norfolk State on Aug. 31.
“It was a great night for Old Dominion University,” athletic director Wood Selig said.
But there were some hiccups, as there usually are with a new facility.
