    we are only talking about for 2 hours 17 times a year.
    Even if the grass is damaged a bit by rolling out 15 feet of southend stands were are talking about part of the field that is barely used (so it is strong and can take punishment). In the south endzone, its just the final few yards that are in play and need to be sodded.

    They can use the same protective barrier they use for the player sidelines in the north endzone bar area. North endzone has to be a no brainer, except for the cost of removing any concrete under north endzone. There should be 6 inches of gravel fill under the fieldturf anyways to allow drainage. Again, you just need to sod the part that is in play.
