In a disgraceful move they put in fake grass and fake dirt in foul territory several years back. LSU has sucked ever since... coincidence?

This is a hybrid. This is a cross of bluegrass, Kentucky bluegrass, featherbed bench and northern California sinsemilla.

Celebration bermuda is a hybrid so it is sterile and therefore you can't seed it.

Given the way we play defense, our pitchers inability to throw strikes and hitters indifference to being hit by a pitch, this seems to be the logical explanation.

I believe I read that the shade behind home plate daily made that section weak, so they went artificial.
