Hell I'd give 1,000,000 for you to get rid of your fruit stripe gum field.

You apparently haven't priced fields lately. Happily for Bear fans the rug was installed in 2011 and has a shelf life of 10 years. We're on the downward stretch with it now...xthumbsupx

That thing was past it's shelf life the day it was installed. It's like playing on ice in tennis shoes.

Yes it is. One of our best defenders is named Striped Rug. xlolx From what I hear many fans are ready for it to go. It was good while it lasted, but its time for a change to....oh I don't know.....green?! xnodx

Color doesn't matter, just better quality fibers.

As ugly as that field is, I have to admit, many visiting teams' dreams have died on it.

Yes, he enjoyed cracking on Bill Clinton for bragging about having balanced a state budget as a governor.

Yep, Ross would need a new chart nowadays.

I wouldn't have posted this if it wasn't an unusual occurrence. Bear alumni aren't known for their generosity towards athletics. xembarrassedx

It's only ugly because the Griz have so much trouble winning on it. Have you guys ever won on the inferno?
