Sections of the wooden seats that were removed from the Yale Bowl,Class of 1954 Field, as part of the ongoing restoration are now available as a limited-edition collectible for $250 each. Each 16-inch seat section, painted Yale blue, comes with a plaque identifying it as an original Yale Bowl seat and can include the name of the individual that it is purchased for. Further information on this great gift idea is available by calling (203) 432-1434. Please note that these seat sections do not include the metal supports and therefore are not intended to be used as actual seats.
