No structural damage after fire at Florida's Ben Hill Griffin Stadium

A fire at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium on Saturday did not cause structural damage to the facility, the university said.

A video on social media showed smoke billowing from the top of the Florida Gators' stadium. The university said it was caused by a maintenance tractor.

The fire was put out shortly after firefighters arrived.

"You know the Gators are gonna be on fire this year," coach Dan Mullen tweeted. "But we still have 2 weeks til kickoff."

Florida does not play a game at the stadium until Oct. 3, when it hosts South Carolina.
