Vandals spell 'GRIZ' on MSU football field

By Chronicle Staff
Vandals broke into Bobcat Stadium over the weekend and used a fire extinguisher to spell out "Griz'" in five-foot capital letters on the football field.
Donna LaRue, the acting director at the Montana State Police Department, said Monday she was unsure of how the suspects got into the stadium, but they probably jumped the fence.
The fire extinguisher used to spray the letters was left at the scene and the discharge killed the grass in front of the booster stands near the south side of the stadium.
LaRue said the only costs to the school will be to get the grass back into shape, and it shouldn't be a problem to fix before the season starts.
"It really doesn't look that bad," LaRue said. If anyone has information on who may have damaged the grass MSU police are asking they call 994-2121.


Judging from the 5 foot capital letters, I'd say our friend HORNET is the prime suspect.

Why are they gonna repair it? It's the nicest thing about that dump.

"It really doesn't look that bad," LaRue said.

At least she knows an improvement when she sees it. :lol:

Maybe we can add some giant paws somewhere.

I've heard stories of Marching Bands doing halftime shows at an opponents field. Where when they march into the formation of their school letters (ie. UM) then they drop furtilizer or some form of seeds, so that later in the year or when the grass begins to brown their school letters will appear on the opponents field. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

That is pure genius RockyMT. It seems that some schools bands are quite devious that way.

nzone was telling me earlier that the cats would probably now try that on our field(fire extinquisher that is)....of course not being smart enough to realize that those antics won't work on turf.

At first I thought Cat fans may have been the culprits in this insidios prank, but mispelled "CATS" as "GRIZ, but when I heard that the suspects, "jumped the fence" I knew it wasn't Cat fans. Everybody knows Cat fans can't jump.
