Same here.

That one will always stick with me. It certainly helped the joke that it came at a time when Boise St was on a roll in football and had everyone talking about their blue field.

quote:

“It’s now time to expand the traditions that surround our football program,” LSU head coach Les Miles said. “LSU is going to take the lead in what we think will become the wave of the future and that’s field turf in the colors of your school. The installation of the purple field turf will add to the excitement of a Saturday Night in Tiger Stadium and this team will enjoy the opportunity to play on what will be the finest surface in football.”

That's what sold it. Sounded like it actually came from him.

Rereading that article is a good time. The Roman Colosseum quote. "Turfus and Sons, a subsidiary of Vandalay Industries" was a nice touch in 2009.
