Spraying the Grass

The grounds keeper at a sports complex watered the grass every evening when the sun was setting. The Grass grew fine. Before a major event, though, he sprayed the grass during the midday heat. Why?

    Cause the games were in the evening and he didn’t want the turf to be muddy. Muddy turf = ripped up and ruined grass.

    Of course this is the most obvious answer, so I don’t think its right.

    Roeder said he was painting the lines on the field.

    nope. Chad is close. This was something that happened for the 1996 Olympics.

    I don’t see a response from Chad.

    It was Diana’s post about Chad Roeder’s comments.

    ok, this one was kind of lame. It was for the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta. They sprayed the grass green in order for it to look good on TV. I know, who would have thought they would do something so superficial . . . . anyway. I have a better one for today.

Got something to say?
