The NFL transforms the Pirates? minor-league field into a giant beach for Super Bowl week (Video)

As a proud son of the Midwest, I've always wanted to attend a game at Victory Field, the downtown home of the Indianapolis Indians.�It's a nice-looking ballpark and it plays home to the Triple-A affiliate of the Pittsburgh Pirates (so, as they say, you can see tomorrow's large-market stars today). Combine a nice summer night with a late-night reservation at St. Elmo's and we're suddenly talking about living the good life in America's crossroads.

Apparently the NFL also wanted to get a Victory Field fix in before�it left town, so it did the most logical thing and turned the place into one of the many things that Indy is lacking from other Super Bowl locations: A 54,000-square-foot beach.

A video of the transformation is below.
