Green Bay is rolling out the red carpet for the NFL Draft. Except it's actually not red.
Green Bay is rolling out the "red carpet" as the NFL Draft kicks off Thursday.
Except the red carpet isn't actually red and it's not a carpet. It's made of synthetic turf with marks to look like the adjacent football field.
It's the first red carpet on a field during the draft, said Sebastian Martin of NFL Events, according to a report from the Green Bay Press Gazette.
The red carpet is from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. April 24 on the visitor sideline in the Lambeau Field bowl. About 200 attendees can sit in sections 217 to 227 to watch the ceremony.
During the events, fans can see 15 future NFL players. Parts of the red carpet events will be televised during the NFL Network's "NFL Draft Kickoff" with Kimmi Chex.
Those who are planning to attend the red carpet events can enter the Lambeau Field concourse at the available gates. The events are free.
