Simmons Bank Field is a 16,000-seat multi-purpose stadium in Pine Bluff, Arkansas. Built at a cost of $14 million, it opened in 2000 and is home to the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff Golden Lions football team.[1][2] Originally called Golden Lion Stadium, it was renamed Simmons Bank Field after they gave a $2.5 million donation to the university to upgrade the football stadium in 2018.[3]
