Super Bowl Field - How They Got Real Grass Inside a Domed Stadium

February 1, 2015

We're sure everyone was busy watching the unbelieveable finish of the Super Bowl tonight. Ever wonder how they get a full field of lush, real grass inside that domed stadium? Check out this video below or this article from Business Insider to see how they do it. Pretty interesting.

Believe it or not they grow the entire field outside in the Arizona sun and then slide it into the stadium for the game. Here's another link to a time lapse of the field being installed. A pretty impressive feat of architectural engineering and a creative solution to avoid using the same old synthetic turf inside a domed stadium. It's always nice to see a football game played on real turf.

By the way, does anyone remember the days when the Dallas Cowboys used to play in the Super Bowl? There's always hope for next year.
