Orchard Park, NY (WBEN) - There's new turf at New Era Field in Orchard Park, but it's the old playing surface that's still the subject of some controversy.

The old turf was sold in an online auction by Erie County, something that caught legislator Joe Lorigo by surprise.

Lorigo said he doesn't hold anything against Brady, who he thinks pulled a smart business move.

Brady told WBEN that making the decision to buy was the easy part.

Brady is selling 3 foot-by-3 foot sections of the turf, as well as larger portions he said you can use for many different applications. He is planning on developing products that use the turf one the novelty of owning a section wears off.
