List of Alabama Crimson Tide home football stadiums
The Alabama Crimson Tide football team represents the University of Alabama and has competed in football since 1892. Although the Alabama campus is physically located in Tuscaloosa, through the history of the program, several stadiums located in Tuscaloosa, Birmingham, Montgomery and Mobile have played host to the football team. Tuscaloosa. Bryant–Denny Stadium. Bryant–Denny Stadium has served as the on-campus home of the Crimson Tide since its opening on September 28, 1929. Originally known as the George Hutchenson Denny Stadium after the university president of the same name, in 1975  the Alabama state legislature renamed the stadium Bryant–Denny Stadium in honor of then coach Bear Bryant. Originally only have seating for 12,000 fans, further expansions in 1950, 1961, and 1966 raised capacity to 25,000, 43,000, and 60,000, respectively. The first upper deck was added on the west side of the stadium in 1988, adding 10,000 more seats for a capacity of 70,123. On September 5, 1998, the stadium's eastern upper deck was opened, and raised its official seating capacity to 83,818 at a final cost of $35 million. The University moved all home games here from Legion  Field in exchange for the funding given to the project by local municipalities. Following the 2004 football season, the university spent approximately $47 million on an expansion to the north end zone, which was completed days before the 2006 season opener against Hawaii. The expansion added a new upper deck to the North end zone area, complete with three different levels of skyboxes, which collectively are known as "The Zone", which brought the number of skyboxes in the stadium to 123. This expansion brought its capacity to 92,138 by the 2006 season. An expansion to the south end zone , completed during the Summer of 2010, increased its capacity to over 101,000 to make it the 9th largest stadium in the world by seating. All-time, Alabama has a record of 238 wins, 50 losses and 3 ties at Bryant–Denny in addition to selling out every home game since the 1988 season. Denny Field. Denny Field served as the home stadium for the Crimson Tide football team from 1915 through the 1928 seasons, excluding 1918 when a team was not fielded due to World War I. Originally named University Field, but renamed in 1920, during its tenure as the  team's home field, Alabama amassed an overall home record of 43 wins to only 3 losses. The Quad. The first home of Crimson Tide football was located on The Quad at the center of the Alabama campus in Tuscaloosa. The Crimsons as they were known then compiled an overall record of 42 wins to only 11 losses between the 1893 through the 1914 seasons. The location of the playing field on The Quad was located at two locations. The first location of the field was at the southeast corner, with the field running parallel to 6th Avenue, and its  second location was moved 90-degrees to the west to run parallel to University Boulevard. Birmingham. Legion Field. Opening for Crimson Tide football on November 26, 1927, Legion Field played host to Alabama through the 2003 season.

The Crimson Tide posted an all-time record at Legion Field of 160 wins, 52 losses and 12 ties. After expanding Bryant-Denny in 1998, Alabama moved major conference games to their campus. In the ensuing years, Alabama decreased the  number of games scheduled in Birmingham. The last home game for Alabama at Legion Field was against the University of South Florida on August 30, 2003. Though they had a couple of games scheduled at Legion Field in 2005 and 2008, the disrepair to the stadium and the structural issues to the upper deck led Alabama to end their contract with the city of Birmingham in 2004 and move all home games to Tuscaloosa Rickwood Field. Rickwood Field provided for the fifth location of Alabama home games in Birmingham, and is located at the corner of 2nd Avenue West and  12th Street West in the West End.
