🧱 1.2 million bricks laid
🪨 200 limestone columns honoring 184 fallen Illini from World War I
⏳ Just over 2 years of hard work 

As we celebrate 100 years since Memorial Stadium was dedicated, we honor not just the structure, but the history and dedication behind it. Here’s to the memories made, and the legacy that will live on forever.
