UL Buys Turf . . . installs turf

Amen brother!!

Is this the same 2004 Turf that LSU won it's national championship on??????
Dear God, LET IT BE. During prictice our players get to spit on it all day long. OH THE IRONY..... OH THE JUSTICE. Just think how much those Ashwholes would pay to have a door mat made out of that or even better a piece to put in their National CO-Champ shrine. Paint that thing Vermillion and White and go to work tearing it up Cajuns.

Do the Saints "have" to change there turf every year? I was under the impression that the turf got better over time as the rubber pellets got packed down from play.

Was that done in the past with the old style turf?

Do the Saints "have" to change there turf every year?

well.. of course no one wants to do that.. although, the deal the saints thought was so good some few years ago has caused them in some sense to "have to" (grins)

my guess is that "they" have been dealing with their decisions "per say" to go the cheap route at the very start.. thanks for the question..

OK here is the deal ---Maybe we don't need all the turf and sell little chunks of the turf to LSU fans-2" by 2" for 100 bucks a pop!!!

Correction, only 9(nine) 18 wheelers are needed for the trucking of the TURF from N.O. to Cajun Land!!


plant opps mistake

Correction on the number of 18 wheelers needed to pick up the TURF, correct number is 9(nine). Plant opps had given Gerald the wrong #!!............


DaddyCajun!!

Does the number include hauling all of those little rubber fibers??????!!!

The turf is from the saints. We would have paid $450,000 for new turf...but we bought it from them for $10,000.00. What a bargain!!!

Just in: Gerald Hebert said several companies had stepped up to offer up their 18 wheelers to geaux to New Orleans to get the Turf!!!! Well he just recieved a call from Ace Transportation and the will donate ALL 9 of the 18 wheelers. The other companies were called back, things were explained and they understood and stated we will be there if you need in anything else, LOUISIANA!!! Gerald said community attitudes are changing for the better!!

The turf was approx $450,000 but we paid $30,000 and that amount is confirmed by Gerald Hebert. It will brought to Lafayette in June by 9 eighteen wheelers, and stored until the turf is needed to be installed. November is the ground breaking goal date and approx 5-7 months to construct!!

The Whole parking area and roads leading(within) into the athletic complex will be repaved!!


This coming Wednesday at 5a.m. @ Northgate Mall Parking lot the NINE -- 18 wheelers will leave Lafayette for New Orleans to pickup the INDOOR PRACTICE FACILITY TURF from the Saints!!! Paid $30,000 for a nearly $450,000 TURF!! The police escorted caravan will return to Blackham around 2:30p.m. to 3:30p.m., to food, drinks and MEDIA. Gerald would like those that work does not get in the way to come on out to Blackham Col.!!! Media will be there to put this in the papers and on TV to get the message out, "That this Practice Facility will be built and IS on Schedule for November 2005!!!!

Basketball section to the Indoor Facility is back on!!
