Rose Bowl wrap-up!

Alabama beat Texas for the BCS National Championship, but I think kudos are also due to the fine folks at West Coast Turf and the Rose Bowl Stadium staff!! Starting immediately after the Rose Bowl, they harvested, trucked in, laid down, watered, rolled, and painted over 100,000 square feet of sod. And it looked terrific! The national championship deserves a great field and they rose to the challenge.

Nice!!

One other note: the national anthem was performed by Josh Groban, some drummer and some horns and, of course, Flea (from the Red Hot Chili Peppers.) They did a fine job, but it was a unique group of performers.

Flea was fully clothed. If you know anything about him you know that isn't always the case.

Until next time.
