DUDY NOBLE... The Palace of College Baseball
Baseball America
"It rises from the Mississippi State campus like a cathedral, resplendent in its grandeur.
Visitors approaching from the west see it in its rightful place in the Starkville skyline.
But no matter what direction visitors come to it, Dudy Noble Field is striking. The home plate entrance is adorned by statues depicting Will Clark and Rafael Palmeiro, Thunder and Lightning. The Left Field Lounge remains filled with tailgaters stretching from foul pole to foul pole,
partying beyond the outfield fence as they have for the last 50 years."
