I work in this crap all the time, lol. Although I love the lush grass at CPX, with a substantial rainfall and heavy foot traffic soft turf will turn to mush pretty quick. Here's to hoping no more rain until next Tuesday when everyone is safely home after an AWESOME event!

Looking forward to the updates. Planning on getting up there this afternoon to pick up media credentials.

Last year there was 14+ inches of rain in 5 days. There is nowhere for 14 inches of rain to go.

This year it's just been really windy. I can see the fields from here; there's still some netting down but the bunkers seem to have made it through and don't think there will be any issues getting the 5 fields we need up and running for tomorrow. That's just how awesome the PSP crew is.

Just took a visit out there; for what happened everything looks decent. All the pathways are still grass and the fields are coming up nicely.

Props to PSP.

I think the CPX and Badlandz fanboys should stop hating on each others fields. That much rain will make any field look like that when you're running a National Event on it.

Badlandz has been hosting national events for years, if the fields were really all that bad all of the time then they wouldn't have hosted so many national events.

Seeing ^ pictures kinda makes me wish I had gotten to play in that **** though.. Looks intense..

Seeing the CPX pictures before the storm makes me sad, I really miss playing outside on good grass.
