Editing Kyle Field (section)

===Bernard C. Richardson Zone===
The Bernard C. Richardson Zone, named for a 1941 petroleum engineering graduate and a Texas A&M Distinguished Alumnus, is located at the north end of Kyle Field, replacing the former single-deck horseshoe which connected the east and west wings of the stadium. This $32.9 million expansion added over 20,000 seats, and sits {{convert|65|ft|m}} closer to the field than the previous seating. The Zone unofficially opened for the memorial vigil following the 1999 Texas A&M Bonfire Collapse, and then at full capacity the next day for the grudge match against the University of Texas, setting a then-state-record of 86,128 fans attending. For the next several years the Aggies saw consecutive record-breaking attendance figures for the season.<ref name="KF_Attendance"/><ref name="zoneimg" >{{cite web|title=Images from Texas A&M|url=http://www.tamu.edu/00/tamu-images/trois07.html|publisher=Texas A&M University|access-date=February 28, 2007|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070303100024/http://www.tamu.edu/00/tamu-images/trois07.html|archive-date=March 3, 2007}}</ref>

The ground level of The Zone contains the Texas A&M Sports Museum, the nation's only all-sports museum funded primarily by former athletes (The Texas A&M Letterman's Association). The museum contains rotating exhibits focusing on various varsity sports at Texas A&M, while permanent exhibits trace the history of the school sports and some of the more treasured traditions.<ref name="museum" >{{cite web |title=Texas A&M Sports Museum|url=http://www.aggieathletics.com/index2.php?&catID=LETR&pageID=259|publisher=Texas A&M Department of Athletics|access-date=February 28, 2007|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070216220442/http://www.aggieathletics.com/index2.php?&catID=LETR&pageID=259|archive-date=February 16, 2007}}</ref>

The Zone contains four levels of seating areas, with the first and fourth deck containing bench seating. One deck is comprised completely of luxury boxes, while the last deck is armchair seating. Known as The Zone Club, the 1,900 open-air armchair seats are considered the premier seating area of Kyle Field. The Zone Club sits underneath the fourth deck, meaning the inhabitants are protected from rain, wind, and the blazing Texas sun. The area boasts a full-service bar and concession areas, with a pre-game buffet offered for those with seats in the area. The Zone Club also has sixteen televisions stationed in various areas so that attendees can also keep an eye on other games being played around the country.<ref name="zoneclub" >{{cite web |title=The Zone Club|work=Twelfth Man Foundation|url=http://www.12thmanfoundation.com/zoneclub.asp|access-date=February 28, 2007|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070504002539/http://www.12thmanfoundation.com/zoneclub.asp|archive-date=May 4, 2007}}</ref>
