After nearly four decades of dedicated service, a beloved figure in the world of professional sports is hanging up his cleats. On Sunday, following the final game of the season, a legendary groundskeeper will bid farewell to the iconic stadium he has called home for over two decades.
With a storied career spanning 39 years, this veteran of the diamond has left an indelible mark on the sport. His impressive résumé boasts stints with several esteemed teams, including a stint in the Midwest and on the West Coast. Additionally, he spent nearly a decade tending to the hallowed turf of a legendary NFL stadium.
In a heartfelt message, the retiring groundskeeper expressed his gratitude for the opportunity to contribute to the sport he loves. “As I step away from my daily duties, I look forward to staying involved in the industry and giving back to causes close to my heart. I’m thrilled to have the chance to spend more time with my loved ones and furry friends.”
The manager of the team paid tribute to the groundskeeper’s tireless efforts, particularly in the aftermath of high-profile events that take place at the stadium throughout the year. “We may work hard, but nobody puts in more effort than this individual. To see the field transformed and ready for play just six days after a series of concerts is truly a marvel.”
