New Turf?

[FiveRings]

I saw somewhere online that we just finished putting in new turf. Can anyone shed some light on this? I saw some pictures and it looked like basically the same thing, perhaps it's a performance kind of upgrade?

I heard it was essentially the same turf, just redesigned sections of the turf so it's easier to pull up for events other than football. Something along those lines anyway...

Is it real or is it memorex?

I think every few years the turf just has to be replaced from general wear and tear of the season and installing/uninstalling for other events.

Except if you're the Vikings, their turf is hideous and many players have blown out their knees on it. There was a Viking who blew out his knee in pregame warm up a couple years back, that's how bad it is.

Jerry is having a control system installed that allows him to control turf conditions from his seat. If any opponent players just fall down for no reason, you'll know Jerry's system is working.

Like in the Buffalo wild wings commercial.

Bingo. The Giants/ Jets just replaced the turf at the Medowlands a few weeks ago. Wear and tear.
