Maybe that will give us a home advantage if our team is used to playing on it and other teams aren't. That, the altitude, and the great team may make Salt Lake a place that is feared throughout the league.
Not nearly as hot as Texas in the summer. June 4th should be between the low 80's to mid 90's it is arrid so it does not seem nearly as hot as say 90 degrees in NYC... which is stifling hot.
Yeah. It was entertaining to watch the visiting teams run to the side lines beggin for water and rather than drink it they'd pour it on their shoes. I don't remember BYU doing it so much as the California teams that would come in to play the Blitzz. Also, on really hot afternoons the smell that the plastic grass gave off could get pungent. Ah, Rice-Eccles.
