The stadium is part of the Scharbauer Sports Complex, together with the 5,000-seat Security Bank Ballpark.

The reason behind the stadium's rather large size for a high school venue is the incredible passion for high school football in Texas. Ratliff Stadium in neighboring Odessa is another large high school stadium, which seated nearly 20,000 before renovations to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act reduced capacity to 17,500.
