The quality of the Super Bowl field has become a hot topic over the last several years. Here's what you need to know about this year's field: 1. The NFL sent a team of 25 employees down to New Orleans a month before the game to get everything ready. 2. This 25-person crew prepares 1) the Super Bowl field, 2) fields at both AFC and NFC training facilities (i.e., where the teams practice), and 3) fan experience fields used for marketing activations throughout the week. 3. Rather than shipping in new grass from Arizona or California to build an entirely new field from scratch, like the NFL has done for the last couple of Super Bowls, this year's field will be more straightforward. The Chiefs and Eagles will be playing on the same synthetic turf surface the New Orleans Saints used during this year's regular season. 4. The field painting process begins about two weeks before the game, with the NFL using a non-hazardous, acrylic latex paint specifically designed for temporary application and removal on synthetic turf surfaces. 5. Grass fields require more paint because the paint is often removed when the grass is trimmed during preparation, but the NFL will still use about 350 gallons of locally sourced paint for this year’s Super Bowl field. 6. The NFL's field director (@NPappas23) distributes a document that details precisely what is permitted on the surface during Super Bowl week. This document covers everything everyone needs to know, from the number of people approved to be on the Super Bowl field during halftime show rehearsals to the approved weight of stages, carts, and A/V equipment. 7. The NFL uses a lot of tech to monitor field conditions throughout the week, including a machine called the "BEAST." This machine uses an artificial cleat to test the turf by mimicking a player's movement, producing data that breaks down the football field into 60 different sections so field experts can easily spot potential issues. 8. Unlike natural grass, synthetic turf doesn’t necessarily die or wear out during halftime show rehearsals or media day on opening night. However, the fibers can still become overly matted, so the NFL protects the field with a combination of tarps, concert decking, and 3D cushion mats. 9. To replicate the exact look that halftime show participants and production talent will see during the game, the NFL uses custom-made tarps to cover the field made to the same size, specifications, and design that these people would see during the game. 10. The Super Bowl process has improved over the years for a reason you might not think: International games. The Super Bowl is in a class of its own, but international games have a global audience and often present many of the same challenges as a Super Bowl, including condensed timelines, elongated pregame introductions, pregame concerts, halftime shows, and more. Enjoy the game!
