Built at a cost of $14 million, it opened in 2000 and is home to the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff Golden Lions football team. Originally called Golden Lion Stadium, it was renamed for Pine Bluff-based Simmons Bank after the company donated $2.5 million to the university to upgrade the football stadium in 2018.
