Scott Field or DWS? What do you call it?

[BiloxiDawg]

I have always called the venue where we play football Scott Field... As do most of the people I know.

What about you?

DWS

Scott Field.

My guess is you'll be able to tell most folks range of age by their answer.

 

[TBone.sixpack]

Same here.

 

[godlluB]

Technically, Scott Field is the playing surface. DWS is the concrete.

Same for DNF vs. Polk-DeMent Stadium.

Dude, I'm glad you cleared that up. Thanks for the insight.***********************************************

Scott Field.

Most, I suppose, but not al. I occasionally call it DWS now, but I don't really use the name often ... mostly just "the stadium" unless I'm talking about one somewhere else, e.g., "The Alabama stadium".

 

[J-Dawg]

Yeah, but I don't think anyone ever calls it Polk Dement. It has, and will always be, Dudy Noble to everyone.

DWS and Scott Field are pretty much interchangeable. I've pretty much fully converted to calling it Davis Wade as opposed to Scott Field. I don't think it's as much an age factor, either. I'm old enough to have called it Scott Field for nearly half my life, yet I still call it DWS.

Is DWS an old Choctaw term that means stinky stadium cup?

 

[karlchilders.sixpack]

That is too easy

Scott Field at Davis Wade Stadium...

 

[Lawdawg.sixpack]

I call the west side and the lower east side Scott Field. Club and up is Davis Wade.
