I was thinking last night while watching the Sugar Bowl about the work that goes into getting the field ready for the games. I was wondering about the turf in the dome. Do they have different turfs they put down or do they just paint the turf that is there? Either way, there are going to be some people working their butts off this weekend!!

They just pressure wash the paint off the endzones and midfield and repaint

No, I don't think the artificial turf is edible.

It'll be harder to get the stadium clean than it will be to get the turf ready. Probably take 6 hrs to get the field ready.

I have been wondering this too. Those fields with the ground up rubber pieces would be just about impossible to "remove" to roll out different turf like they used to do in the old days. That rubber is about 2-3 inches thick. I would also imagine that pressure washing would be a bitch too.
