You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.163.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 17:28, 10 March 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Riddick Stadium''' (opened 1907, closed 1965) was a [[college football]] stadium in [[Raleigh, North Carolina]], and home to the [[North Carolina State University]] Wolfpack football team. When the stadium was first opened, it was referred to as '''New Athletic Park'''. Later it was named '''Riddick Field''' and then Riddick Stadium, after [[W. C. Riddick]], N.C. State football coach during the 1898 and 1899 seasons.<ref>((cite web|title=Riddick Stadium opens (10/14/1933)|url=http://historicalstate.lib.ncsu.edu/catalog/1933-10-14-riddick-stadium-opens|access-date=23 December 2011|author=Historical State: History in Red and White))</ref> The Wolfpack baseball team also played its home games in the stadium prior to moving to [[Doak Field]].

Prior to moving to the Riddick site, the Wolfpack had played their games at Athletic Park (now [[Pullen Park]]) and at the [[North Carolina State Fair]]grounds.

The stadium initially had only wooden [[bleacher]]s on the [[sidelines]], but over the years concrete bleachers were built and a fieldhouse was erected behind the south [[end zone]]. The NC State Wolfpack defeated Florida State 3-0 in the final game ever played in Riddick Stadium on November 13, 1965.<ref>((cite web|title=Final game at Riddick Stadium (11/13/1965)|url=http://historicalstate.lib.ncsu.edu/catalog/1965-11-13-final-game-at-riddick-stadium|access-date=23 December 2011|author=Historical State: History in Red and White))</ref> 

It was one of the smallest stadiums in the country; it never seated more than 23,000 people, and never had more than 14,000 permanent seats. By the 1950s, it was at the end of its useful life, and the Wolfpack were often forced to play more games on the road than at home.<ref>[https://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=1454&dat=19970226&id=ZbVOAAAAIBAJ&sjid=ixUEAAAAIBAJ&pg=3385,4056802&hl=en Longtime NCSU football coach dead at 88].

The stadium was partially demolished in 1968, three years after the opening of its replacement, Carter Stadium (now [[Carter-Finley Stadium]].<ref>((cite web|title=Riddick Stadium demolished (4/19/1968)|url=http://historicalstate.lib.ncsu.edu/catalog/1968-04-19-riddick-stadium-demolished|access-date=23 December 2011|author=Historical State: History in Red and White))</ref> The east stands and the field were replaced by a parking lot, and the field house became the campus police station. The west stands remained and served a number of functions through the years, including a residence hall in the 1940s and the home of the University Planning office until their demolition in the summer of 2005. The former field house, the last remaining remnant of the stadium, was demolished in March 2013. SAS Hall, the new mathematics and statistics building, occupies the former site.
