TV host Ryan Seacrest is about to see his name up in lights, and it’s happening at his old high school, Dunwoody High in Georgia!
Yep, on December 8, he made a touching announcement that after 20 years of hard work, the football stadium at his alma mater will officially be named Seacrest Stadium! 🎉 Anyone who knows Ryan understands just how deep his roots run in Dunwoody, where he first started his journey in broadcasting.
Fans wasted no time showering him with love on Instagram the moment they caught wind of this emotional milestone.
Ryan’s broadcasting career kicked off at Dunwoody HS, where he graduated in 1992. Can you believe he was just a 16-year-old kid reading morning announcements? His energetic “Good morning, Dunwoody!” quickly morphed the daily news into a full-blown morning broadcast! 🎤 The official press release from Us Weekly reaffirmed that Ryan’s creativity was so impressive that he earned the nickname ‘The Voice of Dunwoody’.
His drive to bring the community’s stories to life during those early days laid the foundation for his impressive career. Sadly, his father Gary passed away last October from prostate cancer, which adds a layer of poignancy to this achievement.
Once word got out about the stadium renaming, fans got hyped! One wrote, “So deserving! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼” while another simply said, “Game changer!”
The updates to Seacrest Stadium are going to be awesome! According to the release, new upgrades will not only enhance the high school experience but will serve the whole community well. The new stadium will feature 2,000 more seats, better accessibility, and an upgraded press box, making it the perfect hub for local events and activities.
“This stadium will be more than just bleachers; it will symbolize our school spirit and pride for years to come!”
In short, this is a fantastic way to recognize Ryan’s impact on both media and his hometown. Congrats to him and Dunwoody for this amazing achievement!
