NEWS: @PittStGorillas announced plans for a new end zone facility at Carnie Smith Stadium expected to be ready for the 2027 season. 🏈
The historic rock wall surrounding the stadium will not be impacted, nor will gameday traditions such as the Gorilla Walk.
The project is funded entirely by private dollars.
