The most expensive high school football stadium in the country is in Katy, Texas in the Houston area. At least for now.
Next year, McKinney, Texas opens their $70 million high school football stadium. It is in the Dallas-Ft. Worth area of the state.
"I voted against it, but I'm buying season tickets", said one resident.
Back in 2012, a $60 million high school football stadium in Dallas, Texas was the country's most expensive. It includes hospitality suites and a $2 million scoreboard.
The Prosper School District, in the Dallas-Ft. Worth area of Texas, is spending $48 million on their new high school stadium. The Alvin School District's new field, 12 miles southeast of Houston, has a price tag of $41.5 million. The stadiums should open in two years.
