| Abstract/Contents: | Profiles the Toyota Park soccer pitch in Bridgeview, Illinois as well as its superintendent, Eric Adkins. Mentions that, in addition to being the home stadium of the Major League Soccier Chicago Fire, the stadium "has also entertained the likes of the 'Parrot Heads' with a Jimmy Buffet [Buffett] concert and the 'Phish-heads,' the loyal followers of the band Phish." Details Adkin's professional and educational history, noting that he graduated from the Michigan State University turfgrass science program. Lists various features of the Kentucky bluegrass sports pitch, and highlights shade as one of the primary maintenance obstacles. |
