PHOTO: New York State Football Field Is All Black

Yes, it is apparently true that there is a football field that is all black turf! Yes, it is also true that the field is right here in New York State.

If you have been around anyone who loves sports or enjoys some good "small talk", you have likely heard the chatter about why the field at SUNY Morrisville is all black!

I have to admit, I did a double take when I was flipping through the social media feed.

According to a report from Sports Illustrated:

On Tuesday, SUNY Morrisville added its name to the list by unveiling its new, eye-popping black turf at Drake Field. SUNY Morrisville (an NCAA Division III member) is based about 30 miles southeast of Syracuse in upstate New York.

The football season can't get here fast enough for those of us who love the Buffalo Bills! The players will take the field at training camp starting on Thursday and the hype and drama of the off season can take a back seat to analyzing what the team looks like on the field and if they can live up to some of the hype.

Regardless of the weather or time of year, football season never really ends here in the Buffalo and Western New York region. This current Bills team seems different than most and with Josh Allen under center, anything seems possible.
