Oh, and yes, Allen has some VERY wealthy residents and this was a piss in the wind to build.

And to think I thought the High Schools I attended were big shots when they installed field turf and video screens. My only problem with the field turf is since a lot of High Schools have Football share with Spring sports like Lacrosse and Soccer that the lines for all sports are on the field year round. I imagine running across a field marked for Football isn't exactly a picnic for Soccer and LAX players either.

Though from what I can tell the basic outlines for LAX and Soccer are much lighter during football season.
Part of the reason I was pissed at the Redskins after the Seahawks playoff game was that virtually every High School in the area that I attended had installed field turf while one of the richest sport franchises in the world was dragging their feet with poorly maintained natural grass.
Also speaking of video screens:
