Pratt & Whitney Stadium at Rentschler Field opened in 2003 and was the first stadium built for a top-division programme this century. It exists because of a plan to move an NFL franchise to Hartford that fell through and got redrawn at a smaller scale. Rentschler Field is named for the founder of Pratt & Whitney, and the site was the company's own aerodrome from 1931 — Lindbergh and Earhart both flew out of it — given to the state of Connecticut in 1999. Many people still call it Rentschler Field and nothing else.
Everything happens on the old runways. All ten thousand six hundred parking spaces are inside the grounds, much of it on the aprons the test flights used, which makes the day here a car-park culture rather than a campus one — the ground is forty kilometres from Storrs. Kick-offs are mostly daytime, and the four floodlight towers were built for the concerts and internationals the venue also stages.
The venue lists 36,000 seats, or about 38,000 with standing room.
A lower bowl right round the pitch and an upper deck in a U over the north, south and east; the west end has no upper level at all, and the screen there was deliberately kept low so that the Hartford skyline stays in the frame. The south side is the premium tower, with the suites and the indoor and outdoor clubs. The pitch is sunk about twenty-five feet below the surrounding ground, so the building looks smaller from the car park than it is. There are family and young-alumni sections in the lower bowl and value seats in the upper corners.
