Super Bowl Turf

Super Bowl Field Conditions

This year NFL has moved the Pro Bowl game to the weekend before the Super Bowl. This is a great move for the NFL’s stand point. Being a major sports organization has one goal, to make money. The NFL is hoping the TV ratings and attendance will go up by putting the game between two playoffs weekends.

The only thing I am going to question in this scenario, how will the field hold up? The Pro Bowl and Super Bowl are both being played at the same site, Land Shark Stadium.

There is only one big rated sporting event, that being the Super Bowl. Because this is the case everything about the game will be perfect. The most important thing of everything being perfect is the field conditions. Even if the field is not torn up, that much, after the Pro Bowl, there will still be brand new turf for the Super Bowl.

I’m sure this is something that happens every year, and the field crew for the NFL has done this many times so it is not a curveball they will have to deal with. I just question how well the turf will stay in the ground, only being layed down a week before the Super Bowl.
