seriously, we finished the limestone field wall, the turf was getting super shitty looking, so this all came together perfectly to replace everything.  anyone who doesn't want to get worked up over the mismatched turf, that's fine, but you can't argue that it looks lazy af and stupid as crap.  we have millions of dollars of limestone all over this 175 million plus renovation but the actual part of the stadium that is shown the entire game looks half-assed, again.

what i'm saying is it never would have registered in my brain as a thing unless i read it on goEMAW

Agree.

Absolutely serious. The only time I think about two tone turf is when I read about it here or KSO. It doesn't bother me at all.

Oh, wow. Somehow, that both looks better than I expected and also looks totally disgusting. I hate my life.

Love the obsession with turf mismatch on this board. Literally my fav part of GE.

Yeah, its kind of funny. I've noticed the matted down look of the old stuff both in person and on TV, but I've never once thought about the two tone turf while watching a game with all the people usually down there and the game going.

it's attention to detail and doing this the right way. how can we expect it from 18 yr olds when we can't even match up turf colors? smh. kids haven't changed it's the adults.

I'm fine with the two tone, but I need the dark green to wrap around the endzones to complete the border.

Could care less about the color of the turf. I care more about what kind of coffee Snyder drinks every morning than I ever have about the color of the turf.

I'm pretty sure the last time people melted down about mismatched turf it was debunked because on gamedays there's so many people standing all over the sidelines and end zones that you can't even notice.

But by all means I'm for watching people lose their crap over this if it helps makes the offseason go any faster.

I guess I shouldn't be bothered by the lack of people who don't care about the amount of effort that our school puts into aesthetics and doing things correctly given that our fan base consists primarily of people who would wear sketchers dress shoes to a job interview.

try hard, close enough Kansans!

this is very similar to not having any trees/landscaping on the west side of the stadium.

The lighter shade of turf creates a well defined boundary for players and press/staff. It's well done.

They should just paint it like they would have to paint the natural grass for the winter home games.

Yeah, no crap. Don’t worry though because on game days with crap tons of people standing around on top of it and hiding it, you won’t notice it as much.  :flush:
