===Old press box===
[[File:KyleFieldPressBox.JPG|thumb|right| The old [[press box]] located on top of west deck]]
The old Kyle Field press box was located at the top of the west deck of the stadium, sitting over {{convert|120|ft}} above the field. The pressbox had two tiers, accommodating over 250 members of the press, with print journalists stationed in the upper tier and radio and television journalists sitting in the lower tier.<ref name="KF_Attendance"/>

During the singing of the [[Aggie War Hymn]], in which Aggie fans link arms and sway in unison throughout the stadium, the entire west upper deck (including the press box) actually swayed, even though the press box was supported by three concrete pillars. This often startled journalists who haven't covered an Aggie home game before, even though a sign in the press box warned, "Please do not be alarmed, the press box will move during the Aggie War Hymn."<ref name="drehs" >{{cite web  |last=Drehs|first=Wayne|title=Follow the yell Leaders!|work=[[ESPN]]|date=November 26, 2003|url=https://www.espn.com/page2/s/drehs/031126texasam.html|access-date=February 28, 2007}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |url=http://www2.ljworld.com/news/2007/oct/27/moving_experience/?sports|title=A Moving Experience|newspaper=[[Lawrence Journal-World]]|access-date=November 6, 2007|date=October 27, 2007|author=Wood, Ryan}}</ref><ref name=Chron>{{cite news|url=https://www.houstonchronicle.com/sports/aggies/article/Kyle-Field-reinforcements-swaying-Aggies-concerns-6366773.php|title=Kyle Field reinforcements swaying Aggies' concerns|author1=Brent Zwerneman|publisher=[[Houston Chronicle]]|date=July 14, 2015}}</ref> In 2003, the press box was declared a high-rise building, and Texas A&M was forced to renovate it to meet federal, state, and local regulations regarding fire safety and the Americans with Disabilities Act.<ref name="byrne" >{{cite web |last=Byrne|first=Bill|title=Bill Byrne's Wednesday Weekly August Update|url=http://www.aggieathletics.com/press/print.php?FID=9|publisher=Texas A&M Department of Athletics|date=August 1, 2003|access-date=February 28, 2007|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20050120142209/http://www.aggieathletics.com/press/print.php?FID=9|archive-date=January 20, 2005}}</ref> Renovations before the 2014 season lessened the swaying effect somewhat.<ref name=Chron/>
