Pretty impressive. Looks like a nightmare to maintain.

Are we doing this?
Just off the top of my head. Perhaps it is the dividing up and moving the field into six longitudinal trays of 107 x 12 meters, each weighing 1500 tons, with numerous trolleys and miles of hydraulics, dropping them 24 meters, putting them in perfect UV conditions with irrigation systems, drainage all with fully automated systems and complex electrical controls. I mean what could go wrong? I guess I have been exposed to bigger projects, as this is no oversized elevator used to get the beer to the basement. It will take preventative maintence and redundancy to keep this thing operational. It is very cool and a feat of engineering. |

Work, sure. Nightmare is a little much. 1 tray or 6 it's the same process.

Considering they play 90 minutes on both offense and defense, the occasional fake injury to get your team a breather still pales in comparison to 15 minutes breaks in the NFL so we can run a bunch of commercials.
Think about it this way, Tyreek hill is actually in motion for maybe 40 seconds of a 7 or 8 play drive that takes up 4-5 minutes of actual game time. Christiano Ronaldo is in motion probably 3.5 minutes in the same 4-5 minutes, playing both offense and defense. No timeouts No substitutions when you're "tired" No standing breaks between plays |

Watch any soccer player and tell me they don’t take “breaks”. When the ball is on the opposite side of the pitch they will walk slowly or literally stand motionless for stretches of time. |

At first glance I figured this was just a billionaire owner vanity project to show off to his friends but apparently Real Madrid is owned by about 90,000 fans who vote for things like the team president so they probably had to have voted on this.
