Drake Stadium (1904)
Drake Stadium was a stadium in Des Moines, Iowa. Originally named Haskins Field, for the son of a primary donor, stadium opened on October 8, 1904 with the University of Iowa winning 17–0 over Drake. The original name of the stadium was Haskins Field, but it was changed to Drake Stadium in 1910 at the request of the Haskins. This is not to be confused with the current Drake Stadium built in 1925. In 1907, renovations occurred that added seating, bringing the total to 6,700 and a drainage system was also added. Haskins Field was originally expected to be able to hold 40,000 fans if expanded to its maximum capacity. Subsequent additions led to a total capacity of 12,000 prior to its closure and demolition.
