Back from South bend. LES turf is now planted near "Touchdown Jesus"
The highlight of my trip and of the last 3 seasons.

In 2009 I went back to Utah to visit my family and go to the BYU - Utah game. George caught the winning TD pass and the students rushed the field. I ran out on the field with my brothers and celebrated. I remember slapping Pitta on the back and the next thing I noticed were all the chunks of new turf laying around.

I was certain that the field crew needed some help cleaning that stuff up, so I stuck a big chunk in my pocket. I took it home to Denver and kept it alive in my garden.

We sold our house a couple of months ago, and I dug it out to give to a friend so he could keep it alive in his yard. (You know who you are, Thanks again!!)

After talking to him about my going to the ND game I realized that I needed to do something even better with this awesome LES turf, so I took a chunk with me to Southbend. I figured that somewhere coordinated between "Touchdown Jesus" and the stadium would be perfect. We found a spot that wasn't all trampled and muddy where it will be sure to thrive. Being a major landmark for visitors, the area was a bit crowded, so I had to be creative while doing my lawn care procedure. The patch job was flawless and with the help of a blanket, flashlight and a good knife nobody even noticed. We took pics and gps coordinates. Now cougar football is no longer something you just find in Provo. We have an embassy in Southbend! More locations to be anounced in the future.
