They sprayed the wrong type of paint. Someone just got fired and I wouldn't be surprised if you see the company being sued as well.

It was more than just the paint though. Parts of the field were nothing but rubber pellets. Having that music concert on Friday, followed by the HoF ceremony on the same field Saturday night destroyed it.

Could of sworn I heard Schefter say the paint was the major issue and main reason they cancelled. Talked about the concert as well but they sprayed the wrong paint midfield and in the endzones.

Pre-paint though the field was hard as a rock in places

Yeah someone is going to get sued.

Company went from having a great client like the NFL to out of business in a day.

Twitter if Hall of Fame game gets played: "This exhibition game is garbage! BOO!"

Twitter without HOF game: "No football is garbage! BOO!"

As the NFL's most hated man, I was in charge of the tar-like paint at midfield.

whocares @zhouse03@JacobTamme what did you do to the field?
