I was watching the Green Bay/ Seattle game Monday night and it was snowing, the field was covered with snow but the yard lines. Are the yard lines heated?

They showed exactly how they cleaned them during the game.
They came back from one of the commercials and they showed about 20 guys on the field at once running shovels all the way across the field.
All of them were going in every direction.
They clean the field lines pretty much the same way you might your driveway if it had light snow on it.

Those were from the men running with shovels like mad men across the field. However, I do know that for the Bears game tonight they have 60 degree burners underneath the field to try to keep the grass warm because it will be 0 degrees on the field. I also saw on FOX that they had the imaginary lines drawn for the end zone and sidelines even with their technology just like the lines for where the first down is or line of scrimmage.

During timeouts they have the grounds crew come out on the field and clean the snow off the lines.

No way. If they were heated, the grass would like die and brown. the reason why the yard lines were visible is because they shovel those so that you'll know where the teams are.

No, they are no heated. During commercial breaks there are workers who go out and clean each line of snow, to make it visible to the players / coaches / and refs.

No the lines are salted as well as the cleaners that sweep during the commercial breaks. Good thought though I used to wonder something like that with Foot ball and Basball both.

YES OMG you are a genius!!! The lines are just like the defrost lines on your rear windshield. Like totally!
I'm sorry but this was probably the most humorous question I've read today. Of course they are not heated.
