No Problem, The game was far better than I anticipated. The field would have looked much better if it was on grass. The logs, colors and graidents in the Super Bowl logo, "pop" on a grass field, Compare SB 49 (at University of Phoenix Stadium) and SB 50 (Levi's Stadium) to SB 51 (Mersedes-Benz Superdome) and SB 52 (US Bank Stadium). Grass is a far superior surface and you dont get the "Grainy" looking logos and Endzones.

Yea, the turf where the Viking Norseman logo goes, is most likely newer turf.
-
Looks like the Numbers on the field got altered to a rounded block font
-
Ok. We now have confirmation of Navy blue in the Patriots Team Box.
-
OK Looks like Team Boxes painted like last year. Eagles lower sideline Patriots upper sideline both matching endzone colors. SB logo on the 25's. Gradient looks washed out on the main logo, hard to tell from that distance. Kind of a generic "meh" to me.
-
I was just on the Vikings website. From what I can tell, the center of the field (where the "Norseman Logo is) and the endzones are swapable with a system much like what is used at Met Life field. The numbers are not a part of that system. They can be painted over, but with the shorter time frame to set up the stadium. I think they might keep the numbers as they are now.
-
I think the Titans just added them this past year. I have seen pictures of US Bank stadium with both the Vikings number font intact, and when they play Baseball for the Minnesota Golden Gophers, I have seen severly faded numbers

I would agree if this was a "normal" world. But this is the NFL, and things have a tendency to change without warning. Case in point, last years Super Bowl The Atlanta Falcons usualy put the entire wordmark in the endzone. The NFL put only "Falcons" and the logo in the endzone. I am sure if the AZ Cardnials where represented it would also be with a single wordmark. Just in the Super Bowl. But then, things change. So your miliage may vary! ;-)

We will see, would be interesting though. I am wondering if they will just paint over them. The machines running on the field look like they are cleaning the playing surface, and vacuming up all the rubber gromlets used as the current fill, as they get ready to paint the field. I know during the Divisional game, US Bank Stadium's fleld looked like it's filler had a lot more than other fields that use a similar surface. A very "grainy" look, especially looking at the 3 yard white sidelines during the game.

Update for Heiz Field this weekend
-
Of the teams I have documentation on. The Lions in the early 70's (while playing at Tiger Stadium) either had no endzone markings or diamonds (during baseball season) Then "LIONS" in the south endzone and the vistors team name in the north endzone. When they moved to the silverdome, it was always "LIONS" in both endzones. And then Ford Field, it has been "LIONS" or Detroit Lions in both endzones. As for the Cardnials; while in St Louis, I could not find any evidence of wordmarks in the endzones. Just the occasional "diamons" or a "Cardinal Head" . When they moved to Tempe, the endzones have always said Phoenix (or Arizona) in one endzone and Cardinals in the other, and that alternated, based on how Arizona State lettered the endzones that year, Then when the University of Phoenix Stadium opened the field has looked the same every year. As for Philly, in the Vet the endzones where either blank, had their secondary "Eagle" in Flight logo or the word "Eagles" occasionaly with the NFC and NFL logos on the corner's. So far in the "Linc" it has always been Eagles" from what I have pictures of. Only exception has been plyoff games where NFC logos of NFL shields have been added in,

Yes, in many ways this would be true for pitt. But we all have contributed to this legacy. Just by our responces, our requests. And by providing the information, pictures, weblinks, personal recolections; as well as youtube videos and diagrams. We all have made this one of the longest running threads on the CCSLC boards!
-
I like the Seelers vs Vikings match up. Also it would be the first time in the NFL one of the teams involved would be playing in their home stadium.
-
An FYI Both KC and LA have the Wild Catd logos on the 25's
-
Yep, I was working on The Stub Hub Center as well. Mine was going to be with out the soccer markings. But looking at The schedule of the first few games, I can imagine they would still be visible during the season.
-
That was the "Love Ya Blue!" era. A very exciting team for a very exciting NFL era!
-
Just something I was working on as a Project at home ;-)
-
I think it was 1995. I know the field at Giants Stadium went to grass a few years later and then the same type of turf the Pontiac Silverdome had before it closed.
-
This is what I got right now on the center logo. Very raw. ( my primary machine is down, and i'm using an older laptop).
-
Very good job. The End Zone script is really close. The field logo is a but narrow length wise (Enter edges need to extend to the last hash mark on both sides.) and the "stars" showing the different locations of the New Jersey sports commission need to be added in.
-
Looks like Ford Field is staying with the Honolulu Blue Endzones
-
Unfortunately, with the NFL (the "No Fun League" or "Not For Long" depending on your preference) standards currently in effect, most teams no longer have the "One shot" field (except for a "legacy" field such as San Diego, Denver, and Miami had recently) ability. Not to mention all yard lines and hash marks need to be visible for the officials. Its a real bummer. Heck I referee HS football in AZ, and some fields here only have the main yard lines and hash marks only. So as an "U" (or umpire) if i can get it right, why is the NFL so special? LOL

Phoenix Cardinals first game 1988 vs Dallas Cowboys
