In 2021, Bill Buxton Stadium received a facelift with the installation of a new, high-definition video board. The project was made possible by gifts from members of Simpson's 1969 Mineral Water Bowl football team and other generous donors. Located at the north end of the stadium, the state-of-the-art video display spans 15 feet by 28 feet and showcases a multimedia, LED video display.
