After rumors began circulating this afternoon on various message boards that all might not be well with the Red Bull Arena pitch (apparently evidenced by the photo above), The Viper's Nest inquired with the club about the situation. Via Red Bulls communications staff, Erik Stover provided us with the following statement:
"It's been a long winter. Portions of the field didn't root well. So to ensure that we have the pitch ready, we have had to re-sod portions of the field. It's not a big deal. Fields have to cut sod all the time."
So there you have it Red Bulls fans. Sleep well tonight and get ready to bring it on opening day. The pitch will be ready!
