Lack of sunlight has nothing to do with it. It is a new variety of Bermuda that I suspect doesn't have enough tensile strength to stand up to major college football games or is simply a fertility problem . Artificial turf has a whole batch of its own problems, especially with the climate we have in BR.

It is Celebration Bermuda and is the premier sport turf for southern climates. It's it's very tightly knit. However, it is late November and time for it to start going dormant until early to mid April.

Isn't the whole point of artificial turf to be able to have a playing surface without having to worry about the climate? There isn't much of a climate in the Superdome.
