Big Kahuna icon NEW: And the drum and feather in the end zone which the Athletic Department has said is a no go going forward (nm)

il_slinky icon NEW: That is a turf field. Nice try. (nm)

Diehard Ute icon NEW: Nope, that's all grass, the only time we put drum and feather logos in the endzones were on the grass fields. I was doing most of the maintenance on the field those years (nm)

Redbird icon NEW: Courtesy of utahtickets.com, here's a picture from a different spot (and likely different day) that shows some browning of the "turf"

Diehard Ute icon NEW: That's 2000, in October most likely (nm)

Diehard Ute icon NEW: It's actually the field in 1999 or 2000. We didn't start painting the MWC Logos red until I came for the 1999 season (nm)
Diehard Ute - -- Monday 23 February 2009, at 05:39 pm [ID# 783811] [reply]
Redbird icon NEW: Also, the MWC didn't exist until 1999. I thought about that when I went back and looked. (nm)

Diehard Ute icon NEW: I always love seeing all the pics from those years. Painting and mowing that field was a lot of work, but a lot of fun (nm)

doubleg25 icon NEW: Actually not our new field now in or in 1998 because there was no MWC in 1998. It was our new field the summer after the olympics. (nm)

Diehard Ute icon NEW: No it wasn't, the FieldTurf was installed after the Olympics, that's grass, I painted those logos (nm)

Redbird icon NEW: Animal, my guess is they'll put in the new field after spring ball. No reason to use it before then. (if anyone has better information, please correct me) (nm)

Diehard Ute icon NEW: It's being installed over the summer, after Motocross (nm)
Diehard Ute - -- Monday 23 February 2009, at 05:37 pm [ID# 783808] [reply]
Redbird icon NEW: Motocross is April 25th, so they'll start in May. Nice. (nm)
