Today is the World Cup Final, with Spain facing off against Argentina. We’ve spent the last month watching 48 teams play 104 games, all on natural turfgrass. Required by FIFA for all game surfaces, the World Cup has shown that switching stadiums from synthetic turf to natural turfgrass is possible, and NFL players are calling on stadium owners to make the change permanent. NFL players overwhelming prefer to play on natural turfgrass and have taken to social media to voice their preference. We agree with the 92% of players who say that natural turfgrass is #WorthTheCost.
