Snyder to get turf if.....

[SNYDER325TIGERS]

"Snyder school trustees give the green light this evening, artificial turf could be installed on Tiger Stadium within about 90 days". Quote from Snyder Daily News...

Good luck, were suppose to be getting turf as well, but haven't heard anything else about it.

I think the field turf is all good, but over rated. Man you cant go wrong with natural grass. I remember the smell of the grass on those cool friday nights when the grass would get dew on it and you would be wet and have grass stains that was fun.

Plus you never had to worry about all those little black "turf monsters" getting in your eyes and mouth. I don't know what that stuff does, but it was always annoying.

Football is not supposed to be pretty its a fun nasty sport. If people want to be pretty then they need to hit the hard wood. You are supposed to get dirty when you play football.

I bet Black Magic hates to hear that!!

Never said it wasn't. However, I'd rather get muddy than have those things on me anyday :D

yea but in this west texas heat those natural grass fields are in pretty sorry shape come playoff time, and nobody wants to us them if there is a good field turf stadium available. If water were always readily available, and it werent for all those dry hot days like we have out here, I would agree with you.

Turf was approved along with other improvments to the stadium.

When we played them this season, there was PLENTY of seating on the home side...but there was still a big, fat, obnoxious Tiger fan that sat RIGHT in the middle of Greenwood fans and ran his mouth!!

Thank goodness I know enough Tiger fans to know that the majority aren't like that!!:D

Turf was improved. An advisory committee will present recommendations in the near future about improvements to the stadium, Worsham Auditorium and the band and choir halls, but the board didn't consider any improvements at last night's meeting, except for turf.

You are always welcome to watch with me from high above.

Congratulations to Snyder, now all 6 schools in 2-3A have field turf, or will have before football season starts.

He was sitting behind me actually! One of the dads exchanged some words with him and I noticed after halftime he was no longer there.

STR....first of all, I hate sitting in the pressbox, too far away from the action for me.

PLUS....had you come down from your lofty position, you would have been able to meet Butkus!
