Thirteen out of thirty two NFL Football teams have artificial grass , most are in domed stadiums or where it's difficult to grow grass because of the weather. When asked which they would rather play on ,artificial or real grass 95% of players said real grass, and the reason given was........ INJURY''S.
Boise State's 36,000 college football team play on a BLUE artificial pitch, they get bigger gates because people want to see the pitch, so more money in the kitty,it also seems to work as a home field advantage, ever since they got the blue pitch they have been in Bowl Games ( like different cups) and won more home games than ever before.
Only problem they have there is that ducks and geese think it's a lake and crash into it, so they have to have a net over the field when there is no game on to save the birds from killing themselves . Go Gills.
