Laidley Field Rental Fee Cut for Major Games

Kanawha County Board of Education president Charles P. McCabe announced a $500 rent reduction for two Laidley Field football games this year. The North-South All-Star on August 15 and the WVU-Washington and Lee game on October 4 will rent for $1,000 each, rising to $1,500 next year with potential 10 percent of gate receipts. The prior fee was $750. McCabe said higher operating costs and stadium improvements justify the raise, though he admitted late notice drew criticism. Also noted, a sports nickname discussion followed Colorado’s withdrawal from the Mountain States Conference, yielding Skyline Six as a suggested headline term.
