How Boise State Football’s Blue Turf Is Made
“It’s made in the factory.”

[@imlost19]

next i hope he does how the green fields are made

[@Taymacdad]

"The exact same as the green turf, except BLUE dye.. yeah crazy I know"

[@montanamtngirl]

Lol

[@kz-be3ri]

How was the factory made tho

[@Josh-rn8wt]

k z lol

[@kylejohnson8462]

I assume it’s like green turf but just blue

[@TheDreadedRaider]

Takes a lot more water to keep it blue though

[@Littlegoblinfatface]

The DreadNeck ur stupid, they just put blue food coloring in the water to keep it blue.
Fucking dumbass

[@unpocoloco1649]

[@ATR__-rf5op]

I have a foot by foot piece of the old turf. It’s always a conversation sparker

[@TheSoHysterical]

So excited to be marching on this turf this season. #BleedBlue

[@jspurs22]

I mean they do have one of the best looking turf

[@MinistryOfMagic_DoM]

Funny that the athletic director isn't aware of all the people who license the rights to non-green turf from Boise State. There are literally tons of non-green turfs in use in professional, high school, and college sports and Boise gets a cut of all that action. It's a good thing no lawyer has ever challenged that trademark to reduce it down to only their specific colors.

[@TheShoeGame]

My boy Leland out here. Great episode!

[@juztcharles]

I went to a camp and played in that field
my friend’s cleats melted

[@SportsDissected]

It is really hot

[@WeloTwelve]

Damn Bosie has square tube as uprights. Hell i figured all college and NFL teams went to round tube. Damn guess i never paid that much attention to the uprights.

I need that locker room, faculty tour

[@aaronarmstrong7421]

I played at Boise State for 4 years

[@mattsatkowiak3324]

Imagine having a copyright on colored turf for football fields.

[@jakebell6431]

Matt Satkowiak Imagine trying to trademark the word “The”

[@johnb9744]

What is Michigan state gonna make their fields green

[@bridgerknee8755]

A high school near me wanted blue turf and had to pay Boise State 50k to get it

[@schlinge-fling]

Bridger Knee that’s bullshit! It’s a fucking color! I’ll put a damn copyright on the color white! I will have power over my fellow white people! Muahahaha!

[@andrew5744]

Didn’t watch the video but really? Is it actually copyrighted, I’m at Umass Lowell rn and we have a blue soccer field, so is it just for football fields?

[@isaiahhorstman1777]

I only remember Boise State because of the blue turf did not know they won so much

[@kellerlandry4056]

HANK 4 HEISMAN

[@ayesp6188]

They play in a shit conference though

[@benwilliams8488]

Ayesp The Mountain West actually has the most wins against Power 5 schools right now

[@ayesp6188]

@@benwilliams8488 but they're not power 5. In power 5 conferences they would win maybe 4 or 5 games a season

[@benwilliams8488]

Ayesp I never said they were power 5, but in the beginning of the season most power 5 teams play conferences like the Mountain West, and to show for it they have the most wins against power 5 schools. A lot of teams don’t get steamrolled like you think

[@AShoresfishing]

my favorite part of the stadium is that after a game, security will let you on the blue after the players are in the lockers

[@tcolifestyle1562]

I'm a Msu fan but I'd deadass just go to the game just to see that field

[@tmb_rob]

My school has blue turf

[@TheJoe89jan]

That beautiful blue turf is proudly paid for by the student tuition.

[@SirFalstaff856]

Honestly, BSU has a pretty cheap tuition when compared to other universities. There is a reason BSU is considered "Blue Collar".

[@jabrenthompson5884]

Jose Reyna actually most of it is paid for by donors.

[@tylermelton7490]

Or it’s paid for by the athletic association. Boise state made millions winning three fiesta bowl titles.

[@jabrenthompson5884]

tyler melton my father is the director of development for the BAA. It’s crazy but they pulled in over 2mil in donations last year. But you’re also right.

[@schoolispiss]

Rest assured... simply the fact that it's blue doesn't really make it more expensive... but trademarking it makes a shitton of money

[@cari5627]

Y’all should see my high school ( Garfield Heights) football field our shit still dont have turf

[@robcadwallader406]
