I agree with your overall point, but is this still true?

Maybe it's because I live where I live, but no high schools around me do this any more; it's all at local amphitheaters and the like.

This varies greatly by region. In Ohio, athletics are mostly dominated by single-gender Catholic high-schools, and they have the facilities to match.
