late 1980's without the artificial turf.....for reference....
Wikipedia:Hard surfaces and seams. Wendell Davis' career was ended when he tripped over one at Veteran's Stadium. Practically ripped the patella right off.
My first thought was it looks like Auburn.Looks like Syracuse
Who the hell is procrasitgator and why is he stealing my thread thunder?
Wikipedia:
His career effectively ended on October 10, 1993, in a game against the Philadelphia Eagles. While planting his feet to catch an underthrown deep ball from QB Jim Harbaugh, his cleats got stuck in the Astroturf at Veterans Stadium. The force of being pulled back to the ground was so severe that it completely severed the patella tendon in each of his knees. Doctors later found his kneecaps had been pushed all the way into his thighs. He spent several months in a wheelchair, with his legs encased in casts from thigh to ankle.

I got to run around on that turf in the summer of '89 and could not believe how hard it was.
So let me guess - if we lose it will be because of this?
We used to play pick up games on Sunday on Florida field in the mid-80's..and after the Porpoise closed for the night (after playing rolly polly fish heads of course) we would sneak onto Florida Field at 2am and play frisbee.I got to run around on that turf in the summer of '89 and could not believe how hard it was.

I remember playing on the turf in 1983 when I was living in the Murphree dorms. It was like playing on green concrete also the crown of the field was so steep if you stood on one sideline and looked across you couldn’t see anything below the knees of someone on the opposite sideline.I got to run around on that turf in the summer of '89 and could not believe how hard it was.
They also don’t have orange endzones...just plain grass with auburn painted
Can’t wait for the next it looks like (insert team that has endzones that look nothing like this)
There we go...something actually similar...well if we're only talking endzones
