Mitchell Stadium is a 10,000 seat stadium in Bluefield, West Virginia.[1] It was built by the Works Progress Administration in 1935, and is located in Bluefield's city park that straddles the West Virginia–Virginia state line.
The facility serves as the home football field for the Bluefield State Big Blues college football team as of 2021, the Bluefield Rams college football team as of 2012, as well as the public high schools of Bluefield and its twin city of the same name in Virginia—Bluefield High School in West Virginia and Graham High School in Virginia. The stadium is in West Virginia, unlike the neighboring Bowen Field baseball park, which is in Virginia. This makes Graham unique among American high schools in that its home football games are actually played in another state. The stadium is actually, however, closer to the Graham High building than the Bluefield High building.
