A stadium outstanding in its field!

Stadium at the University of Phoenix

Can't say I've gone crazy over Sunday's game but some surfing around the 'net has piqued a little more interest on my part than in my previous post.

The stadium at the University of Phoenix will seat about 73,000 fans for the Pats' victory over the Giants. (Do I get some points for that last sentence?) But that's nothing! In addition to having a retractable roof, check out this info on the field the game will be played on:

The grass field rolls out of the stadium on an 18.9-million-pound tray, residing outside of the stadium except for football and soccer events. With the field in the outboard position, the 158,000-square-foot floor is unencumbered by the turf and features a built-in utility grid.

The grass field remains outside the stadium in the sun until game day, which allows for the maximum amount of sunshine and nourishment, eliminating humidity problems inside the stadium and providing unrestricted access to the stadium floor for events and staging.

And here's a real field of dreams comin' in for the game!

Now, that's interesting!
And, yes, I realize I may be the last person in the world to know about all of this!
Go, Pats!
