shaydre1019 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 I find the fact that we're two days past Media Day and we still don't have any real photos of the field very odd. Every time I do a Getty Images search of MetLife Stadium, the aerial photos show the end zones still not in place and the Super Bowl Logos covered up. I imagine the possibility of the weather messing up the paint job might be causing the field crews to keep the end zones in storage since they're movable, but it's really driving me crazy.I'm hoping they at least have the skyline Superbowl logo on the field.. Even though it's sloppy as hell at least it's different than previous years. The nfl logo at midfield and the colored end zones are not paint.. They are actually colored field turf. Aka colored plastic. Actually the whole field is colored turf .. Most of it is colored green. (Boise St. Doesn't paint the whole field blue they just use blue colored turf) However I'm guessing they painted the Super Bowl logos on the turf which is why that is covered up. No idea why they haven't installed the endzones yet other than it only takes about an hour to do it so I guess there's no rush until game dayI'm pretty sure the Endzones will be painted. No way they have colored ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AgentColon Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 I can confirm I saw the broncos end zone this morning. It's navy with the broncos wordmark in orange.Broncos logo to left and AFC logo to right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jc... Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 And they have started to go back to the larger lettering. Which is good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andycumbee19 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Im disappointed that we didnt get the orange endzone..... but I can definitely get behind this! Looks Good with the lettering in orange.Maybe we'll see some neon green after all in the opposite endzone. Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illini1 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 I know it's a permanent part of the field, but I wish there would have been a way to make the NFL shield larger for the Super Bowl. It's going to look strange having a shield that small in the Super Bowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Poncho Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 So, so disappointed the end zone isn't orange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrandMooreArt Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 i like the blue end zone. with the team wearing orange jerseys, it would be orange overload with an orange endzone. the whole SB branding this year has been very nice. nothing for XLVIII is too over the top or gaudy (not counting the official logo) Â GRAPHIC ARTIST BEHANCE Â / Â MEDIUMÂ / Â DRIBBBLE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AgentColon Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 I'm willing to bet the Seahawks end zone will be wolf gray with navy lettering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrianLion Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 I'm willing to bet the Seahawks end zone will be wolf gray with navy lettering.One would hope that's the case, and that we don't get double navy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

noodlesnchips Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 I'm thinking that since they knew they would be getting the game as part of building the stadium they probably had an extra set of endzones made that they can paint however they needed. From looking at all the pictures I've seen the last couple weeks I assume the endzones are painted and in place but covered with a navy tarp that looks just like the empty bottoms when they endzones are removed. That seems to be what they are doing with the SB XVLIII logos as well but a different color tarp. On the Bronos end zone above it looks like the tarp is rolled up at the top. I find it hard to believe that no one has snuck a glimpse at the Seahawks endzone. Something is up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CreamSoda Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 I guess they just installed the Broncos side and we will see the Seahawks endzone shortly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhlyBoy Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 The Seahawks end zone will be blue I'm guessing. I'd be shocked if it wasn't. Only other colors are Grey which is too close to white and that green which might cause tv's to blow up if it's an entire end zone. Honestly, I'm hoping its blue with green lettering so both end zones are dark with bright words, but it'll probably be blue with grey words.

SFCOM1 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 I agree, I have seen pics that they have "blank" endzones that are used for bowl games or other football events as needed. And they most likely waited due the cold weather. "Post Hoc, Ergo Propter Hoc!:Â "After this, therefore, because of this." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jc... Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 They have a set of blank end zones. They use them when Syracuse plays there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phutmasterflex Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 I like the blue endzone. It contrasts the team's jersey they are wearing Go A's! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
