Huge black eye for the Hall, especially in the debut of an extensively updated stadium. They are investing upwards of $600 million in the HOF complex over the next several years - this is going to be a very cool destination. Too bad their premier weekend got ruined.

Anyone have insight for the reasoning behind this if true?

Or maybe it was just too damn humid for the type of paint they used.

I'd say more to do here with hasty installation since this was a temporary rug.

I also read that in their efforts to use heat to speed up the paint drying time they ended up melting the rubber pellets that are spread into the surface around the same area as the event logos etc. Ohio-The State University Back to Top MedinaCat General User Member Since: 12/20/2004 Location: Lakewood, OH Post Count: 742 Status: Offline     RE: OT: NFL Hall of Fame Game cancelled due to "poor field conditions"?    Posted: 8/8/2016 3:29:40 PM  GoCats105 wrote: BillyTheCat wrote: GoCats105 wrote: BillyTheCat wrote: MedinaCat wrote: I read last night that the turf was to be used for only last nights game and had been used this past season at the Superdome?

Agreed....McKinley's first home game is being played at Central Catholic, then the next home game is scheduled at Fawcett on September 23rd. Should have scheduled this HOF game in Akron or Massillon.

It came from the Superdome and was last used for the Sugar Bowl.

The renovations will not be completed until next summer. This field was going to be torn up after the game was played so construction can resume. There will be no HS games at the facility this year. http://www.thephinsider.com/2016/8/8/12400902/nfl-hall-of...
